Fire Records

Fire Records is an independent record label headquartered in London, England, UK. Founded in the mid 80s, Fire Records has been a prominent force in the music industry for decades. They have released early records from Pulp, Teenage Fanclub, Spacemen 3, Blue Aeroplanes, and many other influential artists. In the early 90s, the label was home to notable acts such as Neutral Milk Hotel, The Lemonheads, Built to Spill, and Urge Overkill.With a rich history of discovering talent and nurturing their careers, Fire Records remains dedicated to supporting groundbreaking musicians across various genres. Their diverse roster showcases both established names and emerging talents who push boundaries and challenge conventions.

Noveller is the solo project of Los Angeles-based guitarist and filmmaker Sarah Lipstate. She has performed in Rhys Chatham’s Guitar Army, and as a member of Glenn Branca’s 100 guitar ensemble. Noveller has toured supporting Xiu Xiu, the Jesus Lizard, Man Forever, and Emeralds. Lipstate is currently working with Carla Bozulich on an improvised duo release for No Fun Productions.

In 2008, Lipstate performed as part of the Underground at the Abrons performance series at the Abrons Arts Center on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. That December, she played at the Un Son Par Là, Music of Today festival in Nîmes, France. In March 2009, she performed in the revival of Rhys Chatham and Karole Armitage’s “Drastic-Classicism” as part of the Think Punk! program at The Kitchen in NYC.

No Fun Productions released her debut LP Paint on the Shadows in April 2009. Following that release, Lipstate performed at No Fun Fest at the Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn. Her latest release Desert Fires is available on CD via Lipstate’s own imprint Saffron Recordings.

"Noveller is the nom de musique of Sarah Lipstate, whose precise compositions build on a cathartic repetition of righteous riff action colored with gorgeous loopingfuckdoodlery and noise gush," explains The Village Voice in introducing her album "Glacial Glow." The more mannered Wall Street Journal likens her "use of her guitar to explore sonic territory similar to the mid-70s experiments of Brian Eno and King Crimson Robert Fripp." They only touch on the unique way that Lipstate interacts with her Fender Jaguar and a layout of pedals that Guitar Player has run extensive features and analysis on and inspired Red Bull to anoint her one of the Best 30 Guitarists Under 30. As a member of both Rhys Chatham's Guitar Army and Glenn Branca's 100 Guitar Ensemble, and as a collaborator with the likes of Lee Renaldo and Jim Thirlwell, Lipstate has emerged as one of the most exciting and interesting guitarists of this era. With "Glacial Glow" Lipstate honed Noveller into what Pitchfork called "a stronger, bolder voice" giving "each track a distinct theme, telling wordless stories." Originally released in 2011 as a limited edition on Weird Forest, following the success of her most recent "Fantastic Planet" album, Fire Records is reissuing the album to a wider audience.
