Saw Wheel – 7″ (electric)

Saw Wheel (RJ — fromerly from One Reason — and friends) has been described as honest and sad but hopeful, country-influenced, punk rock with raspy vocals. Previously, the band has released records, CDs, and demos on No Idea Records, Plan-It-X Records, among others. This is their first “electric” record. This is a joint release with Anti-Creative Records. This album comes with a free digital download code with purchase.

The imadethismistake pre-orders are finally here! They’ll begin shipping later in the week and should arrive on doorsteps near the first week of August. We’re still a bit bummed  that the art-work had to change and we apparently never got our lyric inserts. So once we have those, you can expect orders to ship.

Sorry for the horrible photo quality, camera phones ‘eh?

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to drop you a quick line to say that the LPs should finally be here soon! I spoke with The Cottage records earlier and they should be shipping next week. They should ship within the same week all things permitting.

imadethismistake – It’s Okay 12″

Pre-order the electric debut of KyleWilliam’s electro-pop punk jam band! With the help of The Cottage Records and Anti-Creative Records, comes this exciting new release from imadethismistake. IMTM started as an acoustic project by KyleWilliam, but has now involved into something that fans old and new alike can get behind. Due to an issue with the pressing plant, the original 2 cover-art, 10″ had to be converted to a full length LP. However, as a bonus, we’ve bumped it up a notch with colored wax!.

The 12″ comes on colored mystery vinyl, with a unique download code so you can put the album on your iPod or CD!

For a Better America!

Wow. So the album “Skuffed Up My Huffy” by Japanther totally smokes! I got mine off eMusic, but I’m sure it’s either a) on the nets or b) you can buy it directly from the band ;)First off, let me say if you’ve tried “getting into Japanther” but just can’t, it’s most likely because you’ve never seen them live. And that is a shame. Their new album is out now and honestly it’s one of their best so far. Below is a totally sweet youtube vid from their set at Plan-It-X fest2 a few years back. I never liked them before seeing them live. I just couldn’t figure out what it was all about. But then after I saw them live at the fest, it all just kind of came together. Needless to say you should check ‘em out. Think Neutral Milk Hotel meets Information Society.

Ghost Mice / Saw Wheel – Split CD

Ghost Mice is a folk-punk band from Bloomington, Indiana. Some might even call Ghost Mice the a Plan-it-X superband. Others wouldn’t. Regardless of this fact, if you’ve liked any of their other bands (Operation: Cliff Clavin, The Devil is Electric), than you’ll feel right at home with this accoustic set. The Saw Wheel is an Alt-Country artist who has most of his discography available through Hillbilly Stew Records. If you like Tim Barry or Chuck Ragan, you’ll wonder how you could have missed out on The Saw Wheel for so long.

Recorded at Goldentone Studio in Gainesville, FL w/Rob McGregor

Hey Girl! – Spill your guts!

So, the first time I gave this LP a once through, I wasn’t super thrilled with it. I snaked it based on a review out of Razorcake or something. Sometimes you miss the fish and shoot the barrel, they can’t all be winners. But for some whimsical reason I sat down and decided to give this a once through again. *clears throat* A’WHOA! This is pretty good. I’m not here to write an essay on why you should pickup this album, but here’s the skinny. If you like the idea of what a couple of angry, yet energetic, young teen musicians have on their minds – and wonder what the ramones first show must have been like in an alternative world where they were truly female, pick it up.

Released by: Thrillhouse Records
