Limited Pressing

After deliberating for months for different ways to make our music and merchandise available, we’ve decided to go with Limited Pressing.  It is a perfect fit for D.I.Y. artists.  Check out other Limited Pressing stores for lots of great D.I.Y. bands and independent labels.

We are writing and recording new material with a new line up and will have new releases available online soon.

See you in 2011 and if you don’t know… you know now…

Noise By 10.27.2010, 8:30, 24 3rd 41071, 5.00

We are really excited about a show we have coming up in October.

We will play the Southgate House Parlour, 24 E. 3rd Street, Newport, KY 41071, Wednesday, October 27th, 2010.

There will be a $5.00 cover to help support the touring bands.  Doors open at 8:30pm

We will play with Noise By Numbers [Asian Man Records / Chicago]; The Magnificent [England]; and Killer Star Effect.

Here is a little biography on Noise By Nubers:

“Though two of its members have much higher-profile pedigrees — Dan “Vapid” Schafer has played in Screeching Weasel and the Riverdales, as well as leading the Methadones, and Jeff Dean is in the Bomb — their new collaboration, Nosie By Numbers, with bassist Rick Uncapher (Textbook) and drummer Jimmy Lucido could easily be overlooked outside the punk underground, and that would be a shame. Noise By Numbers draws inspiration from the fertile ’80s indie-rock scene of Husker Du, the Replacements, Dinosaur Jr. and their ilk as well as classic Chicago punk sounds like Naked Raygun and the Effigies to inject a heaping dose of sing-along melody into every propulsive and hard-hitting groove, making for an instantly familiar yet somehow distinctive and fresh-sounding formula.” -Jim DeRogatis

oh word!

Northside’s The Comet

We are getting ready for our next show with Da Muttss at The Comet in Northside Cincinnati.  We’ve been listening to Da Muttss together on the way to the studio ever since we booked this show.  I’ve had the hook from their track “White Trash” stuck in my head ever since the first listen.  They are a great local hip hop band.  Check out their songs on myspace at the link above, if you like what you hear, I just saw their album at Everybody’s Records on Montgomery Road so I know you can pick it up there.

This show will be a lot of fun.  We’ve played a couple other shows with hip hop bands and we love it.  Even the mope-iest of mopes in tightest of tight jeans can be moved to dance, or at least smile, with good live hip hop.

I should also mention that it will be especially fun for us because this should be our first show with our new member.  As mentioned in an earlier post, Delaney Elliott will be joining us on guitar.  Hope to see you there.
