December 2015 Update

The excuse of forgetting this page exists is a thin one I know. I hate the internet. If for some reason you land on this page, and shit seems way out of date, just visit the online store, it's got all the latest stuff.

Anyway, here's what's going on:

1) This stuff is available and on sale now:

Sabertooth "Spaces Between" LP - the final (??) release from these kings of pop punk. Every time I listen to this band it astounds me they're not on some sort of massive package tour with like Story So Far or something. Listen to this record and tell me you don't think it's some of the catchiest shit you've heard since like the first Smoke or Fire record or something.

Empty Heads 7" - Speaking of Sabertooth, this is Tyler from that band's new project. These guys got banned from the USA over the Summer, booked a 14 show tour across Canada in about 15 minutes and just went with it. If you like Unfun, Jawbreaker, Nirvana, etc, this is the real deal.

Cancers 7" - This record is almost totally sold out, so I'm not going to waste time trying to write a clever sales pitch. You either want this or you don't.

2) This stuff is coming soon:

Unfun "Waterboarding" LP - a true dream record. We've managed to release a bunch of Unfun-related projects on this label (Cancers, Empty Heads), which in and of itself is an incredible honour, so I cannot tell you what it means to be able to be involved with putting out the final Unfun recordings. Remastered by Dave Williams and limited to 400 copies on blue/black vinyl, pre-orders are up now. Ships (hopefully) by end of February 2016.

Pre Nup 7" - co-release with Kingfisher Bluez, ex-members of Grown-Ups. Indie pop you're not afraid to admit that you like. Coming Spring 2016.

July Update

Shit it's been too long since I even remembered this site exists. If anyone checks it, well, thanks, but sorry, and also, just check out the big cartel page for any updates if you want something timely...

Now then, some news:

1) Kent State 7" was released around mid-May. Oasis meets Brainbombs. The best stuff Nick has done yet. Buy it now, today, here. 

2) Cancers one-sided 7": I am still somewhat in shock one of my fave current bands wanted to do a record on this label but here it is. Two songs, one side, etched b-sided, super limited (only 180 pressed) and going fast! This is a pre-order but will be shipping before the end of July! Order now by clicking this sentence I made extra long to induce more views. 

3) Empty Heads 7": Shipping by end of July as well, so grab this and the Cancers at the same time and save some postage and increase some good vibes! Like Cancers, Empty Heads features an ex-member of Unfun, is pretty noisey and raw but also catchy as hell. I'm kinda proud of myself for coming up with the line "Bleach meets Bivouac" to describe this band so I can only assume 6-7 other labels have used this line first to describe bands they have put out and have felt the need to name drop Jawbreaker and Nirvana. Fuck it. Empty Heads are touring across the US and Canada all of August so hit them up and also: order this record right this very second please!

4) There's been a bunch of distro items added to the site, of note would be the new Woolworm 7" (and wow does this thing ever kill), the first Supercrush 7" (although it might be sold out by the time you see this, the Jiffy Marker/Dysnea Boys split 7" and the latest No Problem LP. And a lot more as well. Check that shit out here. 

5) The next record up for release is the final Sabertooth LP. To be honest I don't have a clue when to expect it since it's been in production for the last 6 months, so whenever the pressing plant feels like getting to it would be greatly appreciated. Let's just say it will be out something in 2015 and god bless Record Store Day.
