• Quick band update. Urchins of the Night now have a band page on our site. (Click "bands" above to check the list.) Not much on the page yet but there's a link to the Urchins' myspace page where there are some demo tracks from their upcoming release. Check it out.

• Additionally, Rejouissance is playing two shows this weekend. Saturday in Brooklyn with Mortals and Sunday in Baltimore at Charm City. Check the shows page for more.

(2/11/09) Also, as of today, we're not going to be offering the Nojons S/T 7" or the We The People 7" for free download anymore. Since we worked with other record labels on both of these releases, we discovered that it was kind of a dick move to have them here for free. Everything else that was there is still there but if you'd like either of those 7-inches, get the wax, bro!

• Hey, happy new year. Recording sessions are coming to an end. Shows are being schemed. Good stuff all around.

• Tomorrow! (Sat. 1/31) Don't miss the Rejouissance show in Purchase, NY. They're playing with a ton of cool bands. Among them, the mighty Pissed Jeans and my new favorite band, Cheeky. I would go to this if you're going to be in the state of New York. (Or Connecticut.) Should be killer. See the shows page for details.

• Other than that, it's cold here.
