Kent State "The Wrong Side of History" LP :: Available Now!

The Kent State LPs arrived this week and I couldn't be happier with how they turned out. Absolutely love the artwork that Emma Maatman (who also played on this LP) did for the record too, it really brings the whole thing together perfectly.

Kent State was introduced to me some time ago as one of the dude's from Deep Sleep (one of my fave current punk/hardcore bands) new project that sounds like Guided by Voices, Swervedriver and Mega City Four. Any band compared to Swervedriver, let alone MC4, I will always check out. Always. Anyway I was blown away by the demo (the Spahn Ranch EP, which appears on this record) and when I started the label I always had it in the back of my head that I would love to do a Kent State record of some kind. I'm very appreciative of the fact that Nick (aka Kent State mastermind) was into this idea of a singles collection and hope this is just the first of many volumes.

Scum stats on this sucker: 500 pressed in total, 400 on black and 100 on blue vinyl. Down to about 35 copies of the blue version left which are only available through me (the band sold their's out instantly) so grab one from the store quickly if you want one! Comes with download code. Co-release with Paranoid Futures.

Copies will be or currently are available at Ebullition, Grave Mistake, Sorry State, Dead Beat and others in the next week or so. For wholesale please shoot me an email or contact Ebullition.
