Now available: Long Hair's epic Triple Fake Live!, documenting the penultimate performance of Long Hair's spring tour of 2011. This three-hour-long excursion into lands of musical self-pleasure was recorded at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City, NJ and anyone who says otherwise is a liar and a fool. Features insane versions of "City Cross the Land", "Rise, "Popehead", and more.
Also available as a Free Music Archive exclusive: One Way Doomsday Trip to Nowhere: The Complete Recordings of Alfred Bizarro To Be Exactly 1996-1998. ABTBE made lo-fidelity recordings on 4-track cassettes, fusing delightful whimsy with deadly serious noise. This collection provides the world with nearly 20 hours (143 pieces) of their music.

ABOUT
FSR (Forty-Seven Records) was founded in 1996.
The label's first official release, by the artist Uselessdentalflossboogielovejug, was cassette-only and is no longer available, on cassette or otherwise.
The next dozen or so releases (1997-2002) were given away on CD-R, and since 2003 the label has offered all releases as free high-quality MP3 downloads.
FSR anticipated the collapse of the music industry.
FSR releases are lo-fi and experimental more often than not.
