Hey again out there! We are happy to officially welcome another new addition to our incredible roster- Townies! Townies hail from the southern Colorado metropolis of Trinidad and play punk rock in a classic style, akin to what you heard in "The Decline Of Western Civilization" or on all those Avengers bootlegs before they got their long-deserved reissues. “Meet The Townies!”, the aptly named debut album of Townies, will be released on cassette tape, compact disc and digital long player on June 24, 2022. You can pre-order the album from our WEB STORE or our BANDCAMP right now. The lead single, ‘I Don't Like The Beatles’, just premiered over at Punk Rock Theory and is also on our bandcamp sampler for immediate listening. "Meet The Townies!" was engineered by the band and pal Mike Clark (of Mike Clark & The Sugar Sounds fame) and mastered by the legendary John Baldwin. Townies are doing a few dates surrounding the album's release and they're looking forward to scaring olds in your town soon!

Howdy folks! The new 5-song EP from State Drugs, "Explosions On The Radio", is out now! "Explosions On The Radio" is filled with hooky, punky, 90's-esque indie-alt-rock. It's as if the band members were plopped down in front of the TV all day in the summer of 1994 and mostly just watched and listened to MTV's Buzz Bin and 120 Minutes, respectively. State Drugs channel that through modern sensibilities to create the unique style that makes the band instantly recognizable. You can grab the EP on your choice of light gray cassette tape (with download), transparent dark gray cassette tape (with download) or plain old digital-only from our WEB STORE, as well as our BANDCAMP. If you're a streamer, it's on all the sites. Physical copies are being distributed by Recess Ops and you can also find the cassettes at the best record shops in the greater Denver area. Before we leave you, we also wanted to reiterate how pleased we are to be partnering with Ashtray Monument (Buffalo, NY) once again to bring you this latest installment of State Drugs hits!

Pressing Info: 50 light gray cassette tapes / digital long player, 50 transparent dark gray cassette tapes. Co-release with Ashtray Monument. Released 5/20/22.

'Dear In Headlights', the final single that comprises the "Ceremony Of Leaving" EP by Former Lives, has arrived alongside the full EP itself! For anyone that's been collecting the Former Lives digital singles, we wanted to make sure 'Dear In Headlights' was available as a standalone single (it's in our Web Store and on our Bandcamp). That's already worth celebrating, but the even bigger cause for celebration is that the world now has access to the entire "Ceremony Of Leaving" EP as Former Lives (aka Sean Klassen and friends) had envisioned when completing the writing and recording for the record. "Ceremony Of Leaving" comes as a single sided 12" on 180g classic black vinyl and spins at 33.3 RPM. You can obtain a 12" (with download) or the digital-only version from our WEB STORE, as well as our BANDCAMP. The packaging is extra cool, with a die cut jacket and interchangeable cover art inserts that correspond with each of the 5 singles that make up the full EP. We are excited to be releasing this in conjunction with the brand new Former Lives label imprint. The 12" is distributed by Recess Ops, plus you can also find the digital version on all the standard streaming sites. From concept to the final product, Former Lives has delivered a stunning release, both sonically and visually!

Pressing Info: 100 limited edition single sided 12"s on 180g classic black vinyl in die cut jackets with interchangeable cover art inserts / digital extended player.
