from the label website:

"Locust is an independently operated music imprint based in Chicago. Since late 2000 we have been traveling the sound waves vertically and horizontally. We issue recordings that cover a variety of styles from psychedelic pop, peculiar sound art to earthen folk and infectious electronic music. We get just as fired up over the opportunity to do a little archeology and publish a lost gem as we do in savoring the new sounds of the many terrific artists who are a part of our current line up."
