Have you heard Matt's record we put out earlier this year? It's stellar, and it's only $10 for limited orange vinyl.

Oh Boland also heads out on tour this coming weekend with another of our favorite bands Protomartyr. Their debut LP Spilt Milk has just been repressed on limited yellow for only $10. Pick up tickets for the show at Protomartyr's web site.
