Circulatory System Reissue S/T LP and Cover Led Zeppelin

It’s been really great seeing the Elephant Six Recording Company back in the mix these last few years, as they’ve reached back in their catalog for some great reissues, like that Gerbils LP I hyped last year. Right now, they’re focused on the reissue of the self-titled debut of Circulatory System, a band helmed by Will Cullen Hart of Olivia Tremor Control (with some contributions from Jeff Magnum). That album alone is reason to celebrate, and a key fabric in the E6 quilt of indie rock, but if you act now, you can get a bonus 12″ with this super rare Led Zeppelin cover included, with the flip-side offering a Can cover. I love how Circulatory System plays up some of those pop notes in the track one might overlook if you’re just casually listening to the original, not to mention how they fuzz out the edges and let you get lost in a world that feels entirely of their own creation.

  • Who knew Circulatory System could rock out?!
    Question: do you know whether this is new, or from earlier sessions?

  • It’s from an earlier session…the exact wording I have is “it was recorded ages ago for a Led Zeppelin tribute” but has never been officially released…so now is the only time on this bonus 12″.
