3 records all up in the store today to PRE-ORDER (Should ship around the 9th September)

Dark Thoughts - ST LP

With 10 of 12 tracks coming in under two minutes and the band making minimal use of chords, you could easily be misled into thinking you've heard this album thousands of times before. But actually, you haven't.
Dark Thoughts finds some separation from the pack that?s linked above by virtue of being effectively straightforward in a genre that tends to grow stagnant whenever anyone?s foolish enough to attempt the feat. So many bands have tried and failed miserably at songs that are frequently (and unfairly) categorized as Ramones-core and while Dark Thoughts certainly embraces an archetype, it does so with an infallible mixture of venom and pure feeling.
Every song on Dark Thoughts would be a worthy single but the record functions its own standalone entity as well; Dark Thoughts is a sublime piece of insanely well-informed genre work that skews as close to Fix My Brain as it does Rocket to Russia

First 100 on Red Vinyl, comes with instant download.

Listen HERE
https://drunkensailorrecords.bandcamp.com/album/dark-thoughts

Next up, the second solo record from Sadie Switchblade (G.L.O.S.S.)

Dyke Drama - Up Against The Bricks LP
Dyke Drama seems to be Switchblade?s outlet for songs of the stirring and heartsick variety, and she navigates through punk anthemics, Replacements-core pointedness, and countryfied storytelling with ease.
The album opens with ?Rolling Tears?, starting with an acoustic guitar and changing pace suddenly, setting the mood for the record. She opens up about her relationship struggles in ?Crying In A Bathroom Stall,? showing uninhibited emotion as she sings about coping with heartbreak: ?I dunno how I?m gonna live, how I?m gonna live through this? and shares her feelings towards cis women and their lack of understanding in ?Cis Girls?, saying ?You say I?m second to none, like I ain?t second best.? The album ends with ?Some Days I Load My Gun?, a harrowing acoustic track about contemplating suicide

First 100 on Blue Vinyl, comes with instant download

Tough Tits - Hairless 7" EP
Shouty, synthy punk band from Newcastle upon Tyne.

CO-RELEASE WITH FRUX TAPES

Originally released on Frux Tapes, we are proud to team up with Frux to bring the songs to vinyl.
Title track Hairless is the best introduction to this band, a bass-led track with a low down and dirty guitar riff underpinning the shouty vocals. There is a vitality to all of these tracks, an urgency in the playing that rubs against the frustration of the words; a sort of weariness with the state of things that broods into anger and action.
Assertive and feminist; raucous, rough-around-the-edges garage punk. Check out the songs and an interview on Noisey HERE

300 on black vinyl, comes with instant download.

We have loads of stuff in the works, next up is LIQUIDS - Hot Liqs LP, Color TV - Demo 7", The Cowboys - ST LP, Adult Magic 7" EP.
New stuff in the distro all the time from Lumpy, Dirt Cult, Dead Broke, Total Punk, Red Lounge, Secret Identity, Sabotage etc etc

Pop Punk / Broccoli - Home LP (re-issue) Now On Sale
« on: June 18, 2016, 05:04:01 AM »
Originally released on Rugger Bugger Records in 1998 and long out of print.
Re-released to coincide with a forthcoming Japanese tour, we couldn't be more excited to be able to release this classic record. Re-Mastered by North London Bomb Factory Mastering with the first 100 on Clear Vinyl. Comes with instant download.
Formed out of Pondlife in the early 90s, the then Scottish outfit embedded itself firmly into the DIY scene, joining the likes of Jawbreaker and The Get Up Kids here and there, as well as scene regulars Chopper, Hooton 3 Car, Crocodile God, Leatherface and Snuff. Their sound was drawn out of their various interests from hardcore punk to Sonic Youth. ?Home?, built the bridge between those and late-90?s emo icons and contemporaries at the time such as Texas Is The Reason and Sunny Day Real Estate.
Nearly 20 years on, it still sounds dark, desperate, urgent and essential. Quite simply a seminal record.

We have 3 brand new releases in the store, go grab them!
No Ditching/ Baby Ghosts 7"
No Ditching are a five piece band from the village of Pity Me, Durham. The band consists of Naomi on vocals and guitar, Freya on bass, Kate on drums, Elle playing an extra tom drum, and Laura on guitar.
From Pity Me, Durham and featuring members of featuring members of Fashanu, Jazz in My Pants and Bear Park and of course Martha, ever since I heard their demo I was addicted.
Raw, snotty punk, kinda Raincoats meet Les Calamites.
Two brand new songs, world domination awaits.

Coming off the back of their amazing LP 'Maybe Ghosts, Baby Ghosts are back with their first new song in a while. And what an absolute banger it is. Garage rock sounds tucked behind blaring punk goodness.
Baby Ghosts blend of high-powered guitar, tight percussion and vocals that pop with snarling, dynamic energy is proof that punk can be impressively executed but still a total blast to listen to.
First 100 on Purple Vinyl

Streaming over at Noisey   http://noisey.vice.com/en_uk/blog/premiere-no-ditching-baby-ghosts-split-ep

Spokenest - Gone, Gone, Gone LP
?New 12 song, 30 minuted LP. 3 years in the making. Dissonance and melody. Superchunk and hardcore,? guitarist and co-vocalist Daryl Gussin explains. Joined by drummer Adrian Tenney, the pair formed out of God Equals Genocide to create some lo-fi brilliance.

Arriving about three years after the release of their debut 12″ EP We Move, Gone, Gone, Gone is a jam-packed collection of swiftly delivered raucous-pretty hits, a sun-drenched living room window before & after being broken. The duo is comprised of drummer/vocalist Adrian Tenney (also of Badlands) and guitarist/vocalist Daryl Gussin, whose voices mesh sweetly & perfectly, layered over ferocious whirlwinds of guitar and drums. This one?s dying for you to play it loud and often.
Angry, visceral and urgent. Essential.

Downtown Boys - ST 7" EP
Originally released on Sister Polygon Records and re-released to coincide with the debut Downtown Boys 'European tour.
DOWNTOWN BOYS EXPLOSIVE DEBUT
Don't miss this truly whacked out party from Providence, Rhode Island's most dangerous political prisoners.
Downtown Boys are: Victoria Ruiz (vocals) Joey DeFrancesco (guitar/vocals) Emmett Fitzgerald (tenor sax) William Cioffi (alto sax) Norlan Olivo (drums) Daniel Schleiffer(bass)

"Sure, this will be a controversial superlative, but fuck it, I?m going out on a limb and declaring right now: Downtown Boys are currently the best active punk band in the United States.
Providence, Rhode Island?s Downtown Boys may not be a household name, even in most punk houses, but they should be. The six-piece utilizes highly danceable manic punk blasts as a soapbox for their confrontational but heartfelt radical political screeds. The self-billed ?bilingual political sax dance punk party? draws many influences together to create something that sounds familiar enough to pull you onto its frantic wavelength, but refreshing enough to keep you there. One might detect hints of The Fall, Bikini Kill, The Contortions, and The Ex, as much as the obvious comparison, X Ray Spex, who Downtown Boys share more in common with sonically than simply a saxophone and female singer."
Dangerous Minds.

All 3 records are up in the store. Bunch of new releases in the distro, new Mind Spiders LP, The Marked Men, Exploding Hearts, Divers, Bullnettle, the pretty awesome Macho Boys demo and loads more.
Will have all the new Total Punk and Lumpy releases in soon

Next Up, Broccoli - Home LP (reissue), Wonk Unit/ Raging Nathans 7", Dusk (members of Tenement) 7"

Wonk Unit were formed several years ago by Alex Johnson, formerly of The Flying Medallions, I?m told they began as a performance art project, essentially a vehicle for vocalist Alex. Alex Johnson is a one off. He provokes reaction. Poet, songwriter, performer, "tourtured soul", there isn't much that life hasn't already thrown at him.
Wonk Unit have released several albums on CD and become one of the hardest working bands in the UK, playing countless gigs (I mean, they even have their own festival, Wonk Fest!).
An obvious reference point would be Snuff (hell, Duncan Redmonds even plays on some songs and occasionally drums for them live), with the perfect UK pop- punk sound, organ and horns. Wonk Unit are much more than that though, with songs that are fun, energetic, heartfelt, thought provoking, angry, hilarious, exciting and catchy as fuck.
Never afraid to push boundaries, whilst having a sound born out of Snuff/ Wat Tyler/ China Drum, they still have an originality that makes them unique.
With songs chosen by the band, Johanns Face and Drunken Sailor and taken from the albums 'Trolleys, Muffy, Nervous Racehorse and a couple of exclusive songs, we think it is the perfect introduction to one of the best UK bands.

Vinyl (Drunken Sailor Records), Digital (Johanns Face Records)
Mastered by North London Bomb Mastering.
First 100 on Green Vinyl, comes with instant download (also a download card with the LP for people who prefer lossless) and insert.

Marvelous Mark is the moniker of Mark Fosco, formerly of the band Marvelous Darlings, which also included Matt Delong from No Warning and Ben Cook who plays guitar in Fucked Up. Essentially they were a Toronto punk supergroup "before they were famous", but their limited catalogue - a string of seven-inches - stuck like staples within a cult fanbase long after they called it quits.
Now Mark has a solo project. With the title track previously released on Ben Cook's own label Bad Actors, Bite Me is made up of three succinct tracks so infectious they should come with their own NHS advice leaflet. We?re talking power-pop with punk roots.
It's every bit as brilliant as you'd expect from a guy who uses "Marvelous" as a prelude to his actual name.
Sound of your summer.

Chicago Power Poppers 'The Fur Coats are back with this 4 track EP to coincide with their UK tour.
Short-Brain is the latest 7″ by The Fur Coats, the musical vehicle of Chicagoan (recently Brooklynite) Marc Ruvolo. Marc has enjoyed a long and storied career as a musician and promoter, from booking his first DIY punk show in 1984, to fronting a number of long-running bands (No Empathy, Traitors, The Atari Star, Das Kapital), to running the Johann?s Face Records label (since 1989 ? recently passed the one-hundred-release mark!).

Wanting to tour more frequently, but finding the original members of the Coats unavailable, Ruvolo has now opted for a revolving cast of characters in terms of live and studio rhythm sections. Joining him for the four songs on Short-Brain are John Polydoros (Off With Their Heads, Vacation Bible School) along with Chris Mattern on bass, with Kyle Manning (Tens/Costanza), handling drum duties. The 7″ also features cover art by the UK?s scribblin? wunderkind, Wolfmask.

The four songs on Short-Brain fall into the realm of pop-punk/power-pop, and showcase Ruvolo?s love for melody, while still throwing in an odd lyrical turn or two. Recorded in Chicago, if you listen closely you can hear the influences of some of his favorite favorite bands: Naked Raygun, The Smoking Popes, and the Buzzcocks.

Split release with Rad Girlfriend Records (US) and Make That A Take (UK)
