So stoked to get copies of these in! I grabbed extra for the Hosehead store but I think they're all spoken for already.

New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / Three new releases from Hosehead: Nervous Talk LP, Mandates LP, Brat Kings 7"

« on: April 23, 2015, 01:51:08 PM »

I just updated the Hosehead store with three new releases out now! Two LPs and a 7", with a discount if you want them all. $40 ppd within Canada and $50 ppd within America.

www.hoseheadrecords.ca

Nervous Talk - S/T LP
Two years after this band released their debut 7" on Mammoth Cave, they kind of disappeared. Then I moved to Vancouver and it turns out they didn't disappear, they just hardly ever managed to play out of their home town. When they told me they had an lp's worth of material recorded, I couldn't not put it out. This is 10 songs of snotty punk/power pop perfection. For fans of: Teenage Head, Buzzcocks, Marked Men.

The Mandates - In The Back Of Your Heart LP

Again in a follow up to their Mammoth Cave debut, this LP sees the band tightening up their haphazard '77 punk sound and steering right into the skid. Recorded, mixed, and produced by Pat Kearns (Exploding Hearts).

Brat Kings - Good Drugs 7"
Members of Sonic Avenues and Pow-Wows. Brat Kings are the newest good band out of Toronto/Montreal. A perfect blend of garage and punk without coming across as modern garage punk.

New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / Re: Two new 7"s: Fashionism (members of Tranzmitors) & First Base

« on: February 15, 2015, 09:32:32 AM »

I knew the First Base would be a keeper, but fuck, the Fashionism record is fucking great as well.  Not easy to do this style perfectly, but they make it sound like it is.  Anybody got an spare special cover lying around?  Or even just a photo would be cool.

I'm glad you like them both so much! I'm clean out of the limited sleeve copies, but the band have a bunch that they're saving for the release show later this month. I know they were shipping copies from their webstore as well:

New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / Two new 7"s: Fashionism (members of Tranzmitors) & First Base

« on: January 20, 2015, 08:35:40 AM »

Hosehead has two new 7"s put up for sale today, both Canadian bands. No preorder, no bullshit. Records are in hand and ready to ship. Buy 'em both and save $1.

http://hoseheadrecords.bigcartel.com/



First up is First Base: the band most people know because Personal and the Pizzas covered their song "Nobody Makes My Girl Cry But Me", but also released a topnotch LP on Hozac in 2013 and a string of singles before that. This 7" is four tracks that sounds like The Beach Boys, Ramones, Rudi and Undertones mixed into one. 300 pressed.

Bandcamp



Second is Fashionism, with features Jeff McCloy from Tranzmitors, and members of New Town Animals and The Jolts. This is their debut 7" and mostly picks up where Tranzmitors left off in the late 2000s, with maybe more of a Boys/Eddie and the Hot Rods vibe this time around.

Bandcamp

Coming up next: Nervous Talk debut LP
Late 2015: Moderns - Year of Today 45 reissue

New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / TV Freaks - Leeches 7"

« on: June 10, 2014, 04:17:02 PM »

Out June 24th on Hosehead: TV Freaks - Leeches 7".

Featuring members of Rocket Reducers and Mystics, TV Freaks are from Hamilton, Ontario, a city once known for housing Canadian punk legends Teenage Head and Simply Saucer. Hamilton's music scope is much more hardcore oriented these days, birthing Haymaker and providing the grounds for the first out of town Fucked Up and Career Suicide shows. TV Freaks lie somewhere in between - they're like Black Flag meets Wire meets Eddy Current Suppression League. Leeches marks their first time releasing music not on Hamilton-based Schizophrenic Records. 7" is three songs in 5 minutes and comes with an insert and a download code. The reverse sleeves are stamped are with a handcut stamp.

Listen to the track "Leeches" here: http://hoseheadrecords.bandcamp.com/album/leeches-7
Full 7" will be up on Bandcamp, iTunes, eMusic, Rdio, etc on June 24th or slightly before. 

Available in the Hosehead webstore on June 24th. First 100 copies come on clear vinyl.
Wholesale/other inquiries drop me a line at hoseheadrecs@gmail.com
