Homeless has found a home in Berlin the next 3 nights, Saturday to Monday.
I've read through the thread and discovered I'm right near some recommended stores.
Struggling to find any shows though, any help greatly appreciated...

Maybe I'll just wander to Wowsville now.

The smart Homeless shopper has also been adding this slice of sludge to their Solid Mates selection.

Sewers hasn't shipped from CZ yet due to their customs holding back a parcel for 2 weeks that contained nothing but printed matter for manufacturing purposes only, with no commercial value. Fuckerz.

Hey no sweat GM Satch. I'm wearing a red t-shirt if that helps.

Just so we're clear, the record isn't ONLY being released in the U.S, it's just being made available there FIRST. I've added "initially" to the Bandcamp description. Sorry for creating any confusion.

Geez U.S record buyers have it good, price wise. Most stores in Australia sell new release records between $26-30 and even then, they struggle to make a buck.

I get the impression you might need a few things pointed out GM.

U.S orders for the Cuntz record will ship from within the U.S and the $13 ($11.58 U.S) charge includes the cost of getting the records from the Czech Republic to the U.S, mailer cost and the fact I need to pay someone to do the packing and posting. People don't work for free.

I can assure you, $13 is quite good when you consider that as a gatefold LP and being over 500 grams, this record WOULD cost AUD $29 ($25.82 U.S)  to ship from Australia to U.S, not including mailer cost.

Then there's Bandcamp (10%) and Paypal (10% for O/S orders) fees to consider. The only people making money outta this is Bandcamp and Paypal.

Oh yeah, did you know the Aussie dollar has dropped more than 10% to the greenback in recent weeks?

New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / CUNTZ 'Solid Mates' LP + 'Aloha' repress on Homeless ** OUT NOW **

« on: August 01, 2013, 07:33:01 PM »

RELEASE DATE: 12th September, 2013
Vinyl LP + digital only


The limited edition, 100 COPIES ONLY, Olive vinyl will be restricted to preorders (available worldwide), with any remaining shipped to New York in time for the first show, at Death By Audio, Thursday 12th September. We don't expect there to be any colour vinyl left by their Gonerfest appearance.

Bandcamp preorder:
http://homelessrecords.bandcamp.com/album/solid-mates

Mastered by Mikey Young.
Includes download code.

Second album of 2013 for Melbourne's CUNTZ. With Alex Macfarlane (Boomgates, Constant Mongrel) behind the desk yet again and both camps benefitting from being a year older, CUNTZ have produced another thug punk classic in Solid Mates. The debut Aloha, polarised critics mainly due to the band's chosen moniker, and those that didn't get the sardonic humour present missed out on fully enjoying Aloha, although one commenter nailed it when stating "the informed listener can choose to either get it or be put off by the irreverence. Cuntz are dedicated to the hoon, and dedicated to supporting each other in their own respective hoons, and they don?t give a fuck about what anyone thinks about that."

And so, with Solid Mates tucked securely into their pants, CUNTZ are about to embark on their most ambitious project yet with the band undertaking a US tour, commencing September 2013 and includes an appearance at Gonerfest 10 in Memphis, alongside the Cosmic Psychos, Mudhoney, Wreckless Eric, Quintron and Guitar Wolf. Tour includes shows on the East & West Coast of America. You've been warned.

"...these new Australian bands just continue to kick asses and take names. 'Aloha' kicks off with a massive headache, coming off like Flipper and Venom P. Stinger in a head-on collision. Thank god for them."
- RK (Terminal-Boredom)

"It's delightfully maddening and miserable. Imagine an Australian Pissed Jeans, maybe, or these guys' '80s/'90s predecessors Venom P. Stinger (going back further, the Sick Things) on a hard drug binge. Get it if you like your rock ugly and unhappy, but with a sardonic sense of humor."
- (Aquarius Records)

New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / Sewers 'Hoisted' LP on Homeless OUT NOW

« on: July 22, 2013, 06:56:58 PM »

RELEASE DATE: 8th August, 2013
Vinyl LP + digital only

Sewers debut album 'Hoisted' on vinyl for the first time and now available for preorder via Bandcamp.
LP can be previewed at the Bandcamp link.
homelessrecords.bandcamp.com/album/hoisted

Limited edition of 400 copies.
Includes download code.

Bottom-feeder band, Sewers combine the cunning of the Country Teasers, the wonk of The Fall and a Killdozer scrawl. It?s a stew of Australia?s finest deadly exports like King Snake Roost, Lubricated Goat, and feedtime.

Sewers demo cassette
Brisbane fuckers with a demo tape they recorded in a storage space. Fuck garages. "Human Spray" is some hillbilly-punk shit, like Pogues if they were actually as cool as they looked in 'Straight to Hell' and were actually King Snake Roost and not The Pogues. But the guy still sounds like Shane drunk and singing, but probably with slightly better teeth. Music is surely rooted in the dirt a la feedtime or 3TS, more outback and dusty grime than swamp-n-muck. Excellent songs, with good titles even. "Grease My Chain"?! And it's a fucking hit too. Almost what I hoped Axeman's Jazz would be like. Screeeeeeee and jazz and trudge. "Human Spray"! "Fishing"! That bass player is fishing in some deep holes, I'll tell you what. I like the cut of these guy's jib for sure. "Ugly Party" is just that- a party with ugly broads, very martial and rat-a-tat drums. I don't think the singer is totally shitfaced though, I think he's got a good buzz going where his slurs sound sort of pissed but not unintelligbile. Tasteful slide-screech solo. "Sinkhole" is fucking country with live disco drumming or some shit - which they swerve into a take on "Bitches Fuck Off"....Whoa there fellas, pump the brakes...you don't cover Wallers, just like you don't cover The Fall or The Stooges. You guys got a lot of fucking balls trying that shit. I'll look the other way this time...These guys had a track on the NGL comp that wasn't even half as good as any of the songs on this if I remember right. They have an LP coming out on a label I can't figure out ("that old bastard"?), but it'll fit right in on Homeless next to the Cuntz LP. Some upper deck Aussie shit right here.

I need a few recommendations on what's good right now.  No bubblegum crap.

I second that Mesa Cosa 10" at Slovenly. Hopefully they also stock the new Stabs LPs soon. Definitely no bubblegum in sight, unless it's being used to plug a bleeding wound...
