It’s called “Slave Song” Enjoy!!

ALSO…if you like what you hear, you can now pre-order this LP from us at: our store HERE! The record is pressed on clear green and pink vinyl…I don’t know which color I’m going to get, as we haven’t flipped the coin to determine that yet…

This is a co-release with 3 other record labels: Lost Cat, Encapsulated and HeWhoCorrupts, Inc. (so they have copies too).

thanks!

just to give you a heads-up on a few things:
1. I just moved and I’m still in the process of unpacking, rebuilding shelves and organizing the new label office. Many thanks for your patience with the orders over the last month or two.
2. As I am unpacking, I’ve been finding copies of releases that I thought were out of print here and there and I’ll be adding those to the store once the office organizing is done.
3. We’ll be launching a pre-order for a new release today…more news about that this afternoon.
Thanks!
-Justin.

Hey there friends,
in today’s exciting news, we will be releasing a record from GALACTIC CANNIBAL. The album will consist of 9 songs and be around 23 minutes long and it is a 4 way co-release that we are doing with our friends in Encapsulated Records, Lost Cat Records and Hewhocorrupts, Inc. This is a new band made up of members of Direct Hit and Tension Generation. The cover artwork was created by our awesomely talented buddy Josh Davis, too.

Check out a couple songs on their bandcamp page here: http://galacticcannibal.bandcamp.com

Read a short article about the band here.

This record will hopefully be out sometime in May or June.

Happy April! Let’s get to the news:

Topics:
1. Snakewing video premier at the AV Club’s LOUD Column
2. Break Anchor West Coast Tour is all but done (except for tonight in Chicago)
3. Updated label catalog

1. Snakewing video premier at the AV Club’s LOUD column
19214_10151295343943141_80324015_nYesterday we officially released the Easy Action / Snakewing split 7″/EP. It is without a doubt, one of the most impressive records we’ve ever put out in content and in aesthetic, thanks to Shawn Knight’s intensely artwork, pictured at the right:
Today we are premiering a video from Snakewing’s song “Ancient Construct Alchemist” in conjunction with, sadly, the last LOUD column at the AV Club, Jason Heller’s long running punk rock / metal / hardcore / extreme music monthly column.

Snakewing

Snakewing
L-R: Kevin, Phil, Cris & Nick

Jason was kind enough to not only give us top billing in the article for the video premier AND a stellar review to boot. Please check out the article, get schooled on some serious metal and then read some of his past columns too, oh and obviously read the review and watch the video for “Ancient Construct Alchemist” HERE at LOUD/the AV Club.

2. Break Anchor West Coast Tour is all but done
(except for tonight in Chicago)
Break Anchor is wrapping up their first West coast tour tonight in Chicago. We’d like to thank everyone for stopping by and supporting them!
Here’s the show info for the Chicago tour date of “the Rolling Blackouts” Tour: http://www.facebook.com/events/149077071917708/
Stream the split EP we released for Break anchor here:

……………………………………………………….

3. Updated label catalog
I try to always include a one page label brochure/catalog with the mail-orders and I have updated this for the spring season. I also include a word search with band names as a fun game to include, and if you take a picture of the completed puzzle and email it me, you can get 10% off your next order…no one really ever takes me up on this offer, but it’s fun regardless….and until I run out of room on that sheet I’ll continue to include them, so, download the latest catalog here …humor me, and get money off your next purchase.

thanks, There may be more news later in the month to announce…there sure are some details in the catalog that will tip you off to them ahead of time. Stay tuned.
