GRABASS CHARLESTONS / TOYS THAT KILL
split
BUY LP • $8.00

In the grand pantheon of rocknroll, this is the first pairing of GRABASS CHARLESTONS and TOYS THAT KILL. Weird, huh? It is no accident that this is at the very top of our interweb page. It is as purposeful as the TOUR that GC is currently embarked upon. Be there and pick up one of these slabs of PINK THUNDER. Consider this while you sweat it out. Consider as well, joining either TEAM PINK or TEAM BLUE. Perhaps you are indecisive? Join both. Many records were harmed in the making of this record. Considerably creepy cover painting by Jason Miracle.

First Pressing (as if it were not obvious enough) on your choice of PINK or BLUE vinyl! (Includes Butt Load Code)

FIYA
"Magic Words"
BUY LP • $8.00

Blistering barnacles! The FIYA record is here, the FIYA record is here! Shout it from the rooftops! Shout it from underneath the sink! I pretty much nailed it last time, so let me see if I can update that blurb: “Magic Words” is a short (okay, so it's about twice as long as "Better Days"), fast blast of energy, enthusiasm, and inspiration... an exciting kick-in-the-ass that encourages active participation, balanced with thoughtful contemplation! FIYA is a Gainesville, Florida collection of siblings, housemates, and neighbors (two of whom moved away, then moved back) who have been touring and recording for several years (well, they took a break and played THE FEST and HARVEST OF HOPE last year). “Magic Words” is the band’s most focused effort: the songs are fast (and medium), melodic punk and the lyrics navigate the ways people try to imagine, articulate, and work towards a more compassionate world. Urgent and uplifting, raw and refreshing! Wrap that up with stunning art by Nate Powell!!

PAUL BARIBEAU
"Unbearable"
BUY LP • $8.00
BUY CD • $7.00
DOWNLOAD from iTunes

Troubadour extraordinaire PAUL BARIBEAU breaks the chains that bind and unleashes a mind-melting hardcore blast of fury and bile! Okay, maybe that's taking it a little far, but on top of the classic singer-songwriter approach, there is at least one ripping electric guitar solo. There are definitely ten songs on this thing and they are certainly choice cuts. Paul has nowhere to hide and rocks out, acoustic style. Have you ever met the guy? He's fantastic. I mean that. He has played with fancy folks that you have heard of and has toured endlessly, sweeping the land far and wide. Michigan, what's up with all your great bands?

First pressing on your choice of PINK or BLACK vinyl! (Download code included, but really, you can just download it from ifyoumakeit.com anyway.)

YOUNG LIVERS

BUY CD • $7.00
DOWNLOAD from iTunes

It is with a collective sigh of relief and with fists held high that we announce the new YOUNG LIVERS record has been born unto the world! Rejoice!

Propulsive, relentless, dark, driving! Dueling guitar leads, monolithic howl! As much as they want me to mention the first Crue EP, I just can't do it. Thin Lizzy, I'll mention! Deep melodies, soaring despair, cryptic journeys, all wrapped in a twisted, anthemic sense of hope, buried under the weight of life and crushing riffs! Undeniable and immediate! Second pressing LP on Oil-Leak-Clear or Purple-Mix vinyl.

On Tour with Against Me! in Sept!

BRIDGE AND TUNNEL
"Indoor Voices"
BUY 10" • $8.00
DOWNLOAD from iTunes

**On assorted colored vinyl! A chronicle of the last five songs Bridge And Tunnel wrote with their original line-up, prior to the departure of bassist Tia. Fusing their vigorously intertwining guitar work with jazzier rhythms harkens back to the early Polyvinyl days of American Football and Braid, while frantic changes anchored by sweeping vocal melodies invoke a strong nod to At the Drive-In. Lyrically, they continue to bare a strong DC influence, expounding a critical and politicized world view while frequently turning the crosshairs on themselves for an introspective self-analysis. Put plainly, these five songs are Bridge And Tunnel at the top of their game.

LEATHERFACE
"The Stormy Petrel"

DOWNLOAD from iTunes

2nd pressing in stock on now WHITE vinyl! This moment is quite literally twenty years in the making for me. What's the story here? Is it about a kid hearing a band for the first time in 1990? Is it about the impact felt by a vastly influential, yet humbly underground band? Let us just say that without LEATHERFACE there would be no HOT WATER MUSIC as we know them. THE TIM VERSION and TILTWHEEL would have a big problem. And there would be a lot less tattoos of boats.

GATORFACE
"Wasted Monuments"
BUY LP • $8.00
BUY CD • $7.00
DOWNLOAD from iTunes

GET FACED! With the word "Wasted" featured prominently on the cover, Gatorface is primed to be perceived as a ferocious party animal... and although they can certainly carry their weight if this is a challenge (are you threatening me?), the record easily bridges the vast gulf betwixt melodic hardcore and fast punk. Formed from the ashes of New Mexican Disaster Squad, Gatorface rises like a vaporous phoenix to free you from the bother of finding another album to play (just hit "repeat"). Fast, melodic, positive, negative, smart, hot & spicy.

RIVERDALES
"Tarantula" from Recess Records
BUY LP • $10.00
BUY CD • $8.00
DOWNLOAD from iTunes

The Riverdales follow up last year's "Invasion USA" with "Tarantula," 30 minutes of their heaviest yet catchiest songs to date. Initially meant to be part of "Invasion USA," these tunes stood out on their own enough to be their own beast. In these parts, RIverdales-Storm The Streets, is considered a cultish,godlike slab. Tarantula carries on with the great Foster/Schafer songwriting team, as well as being complimented with the Justin Perkins production. "12 to the Moon" can be considered a classic weeks before release date. And if you wanna talk up the Ramones references, well then we can clock in with this era's "Baby Sitter/Bonzo/Something to Believe In" via "Soultaker". I am comfortable saying that. **LP is packaged in a hefty gatefold jacket! **CD sports the infamous digipak!

ACEPHALIX
"Aporia" from Prank
BUY LP • $9.00
BUY CD • $8.50
DOWNLOAD from iTunes

Ultra downtuned, crushing metallic punk assault. A tungsten gnarl of immense grimy heaviness, the debut LP by San Francisco’s ACEPHALIX touches on influences of bands from divergent points of punk, metal and hardcore - SACRILEDGE, CRO-MAGS, NAUSEA, MOTORHEAD, HELLSHOCK, ANTI-CIMEX - but none of those exactly pinpoints where the band is at and where the continually evolving band is headed, as they brawl through attacks of D-Beat, dirge and thrash. Classic harmonized metal leads and feedback fly as gutteral vocals spit and growl, with sturdy rhythms supporting the dark melodic undercurrent that drives this crushing, pounding, dense metal-punk hybrid. Massive production by Jef Leppard in the dark attic of Lennon Studios and mastered by George Horn Mastering. The 13 tracks (14 on the CD) are complemented by equally bleak, dark and grim lyrics, making for an impressively solid debut.

PERSONAL AND THE PIZZAS
"Raw Pie" from 1-2-3-4-Go!
BUY LP • $9.00
DOWNLOAD from iTunes

FOR FANS OF: The Ramones, The Stooges, chains, leather, brass knuckles, cruising, bruising and petty larceny. 1-2-3-4 Go!'s first foray in to the New Jersey badlands. This isn't muscle bound fake tan guido shit. This is the real New Jersey. Pizza eating, beer drinking, chain wielding guido thug rock. Too fuckin' real to be fake! The LP features newly mastered (some actually mastered for the first time) versions of the songs from their sold out singles and comp tracks (on labels like Rob's House, Burger, Bubbledumb, Florida's Dying, Windian etc) plus studio versions of "$7.99 For Love" and "Pepperoni Eyes". As a band, the Pizzas don't add up right. Probably due to the fact none of them graduated high school. They bend and meld uber familiar elements of bands like The Ramones and The Stooges in ways that most other bands fail miserably at. The shit doesn't make sense. After a few chains across the face I've learned to stop questioning it. (**includes download code!)

SENDERS / WAVELETS
split from CT Records
BUY 7" • $2.80

Wavelets sling noodley guitar work faster than a coked-out Leo's employee, delivering a sound that's somewhere between a double-timed American Football and a more structured, somber Cap'n Jazz, with hints of Ghosts and Vodka, Make Believe, or Minus The Bear and nods to contemporaries like Snowing, Algernon Cadwallader, and Grown Ups. On the B-side, Senders delve into more aggressive and distorted territories while remaining firmly melodic, for a finished product that has been compared by roommates and weed buddies to Braid, I Hate Myself, Frodus, The Promise Ring, and that first Appleseed Cast record.

DOWNLOAD from iTunes

We're very excited to see Holopaw back at it with their third full-length, Oh, Glory Oh, Wilderness. After two acclaimed records with Sub Pop, Florida natives John Orth and Jeff Hays changed their strategy in favor of a more scaled-down, home-grown approach to creating music. What you have here is Holopaw's second coming: ten tracks of lulling guitar and meaningful lyricisms that encompass the struggle and hard work of putting a band back together.

VRGNS
"Manimal" from Kiss of Death
BUY LP • $8.00

This Orlando, FL based band's second full-length for Kiss of Death features bigger, louder production (while still retaining its charming "rough-around-the-edges" quality), more dynamic song writing and a vicious cynical voice. The record ebbs and flows with a distinct 70's and 80's punk sound. Sometimes bouncy, sometimes raging and always catchy, "Manimals" will lull you into a sugary submission before kicking your teeth into the back of your throat. While influenced by the likes of the Damned, Adolescents, and more old school favorites, this isn't a throwback record by any means. It's a progressive take on modern punk rock song writing that gives a curt nod of respect to the ones that paved the way, while still branching out into dangerous territory. "Manimals" is a record that pulls no punches lyrically and keeps the listener on their toes musically.
