Happy Record Store Day 2021! WE MADE IT! It sounds like a great time to have our first sale of year! To celebrate, you can get 15% off EVERYTHING but pre-orders and things already on sale. In addition, all of our Bandcamp digital downloads are free/pay-what-you-want! We've got a lot of very cool things to choose from. Parting has their debut record, The Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick's 'Ways of Hearing' is now on vinyl, the Boyfriends and Kittyhawk Discography tape, a bunch of enamel pins and shirts and more! Just enter 'RSD2021' at check-out.
BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! For everyone bummed that first pressing of Camp Trash's "Downtiming" sold out so quickly, WE HAVE ANOTHER REPRESS FOR PRE-ORDER! Two cool new colors, grab them here. We also got two new enamel pin for Camp Trash and they look so cool. Take a gander for yourself:
You can grab them as a set or individually here.
YOU WANT MORE CAMP TRASH?! You monsters! FINE! We've got a special surprise we've been saving for RSD- a new release on cassette called 'Downtiming+'. On Side A, it features the same studio tracks as the original 'Downtiming', but Side B things get wild. It's filled with acoustic versions, demos, and alternate takes. 6 tracks on top of the 4 original EP tracks = one good time.
Here's the catch- this won't be coming to streaming services, so the only way to get this is to grab a tape. Pre-order that puppy here. The official release date is 7/30.
Ok, that's all for now- STOP READING AND START SPENDING!

Bad news on the Parting cassettes- we just heard back from the plant & we are now looking at the end of the month for these. They've made it to the US, but they are in customs for inspection, which is currently a nightmare. As soon as we have more info, we will pass it along.
Sorry for the delay, let's hope it's somehow faster than we expect now.

We are excited to announce Chet Wasted has joined our roster!
You might recognize singer/multi-instrumentalist Jacob McCabe from his work in Perspective, a lovely hand to hold, but his solo work in Chet Wasted exposes an entirely different set of musical roots. Airy musical arrangements move from playful and uplifting to haunting and jarring from song to song. Vocal harmonies lean heavily on some of rock's greatest superstars, paying homage to acts like the Beach Boys and Bob Dylan. Chet Wasted survives faithfully recreating a sound left behind decades past while giving it a modern spin that somehow feels restless and timeless.
We will be releasing the debut album 'Raspberry' on 8/27/21 on cassette and digitally everywhere.
In the meantime, you can watch a video of Chet Wasted play 'Distant Lovers', a live version of a track from the forthcoming LP:
