It’s been awhile, but The Estranged – Static Thoughts LPs are back in stock. Order yers today!

In other Estranged news, the band’s demo-ing songs next month to be recorded in October for a new full length on Dirtnap! Hurrah!

Psyched To Die practically qualify as a New Jersey punk all-star band, being composed of ex-members of The Ergs, For Science, Hunchback and a bunch more.

Forget all that, though, this sounds nothing like any of those bands! (Mikey Erg is nothing if not versatile!)

Starting off as a straightforward (DC meets early Touch And Go?) hardcore band with lyrics about as uplifting as the name would suggest, Psyched To Die’s newer material slows it down just a bit and explores the area where punk and early hardcore intersect, kind of a cross between Dangerhouse and early Orange County stuff. (if the song title “OCD Life” is not a Rikk Angew nod, it should be!)

Happy-fun-time music this ain’t. This is fast, dirty, bleak and negative, but still pretty darn catchy.

This CD compiles the as-yet-unreleased Dirtnap 7″ (patience!), the Sterile Walls 7″ released on Grave Mistake/Firestarter, the 8 song demo (some of their best stuff in our humble opinion!) and may or may not include a hidden bonus track! You’ll just have to buy it and find out!

Head over to our mailorder site,  Green Noise Records,  and pick yerself up a copy!

So here is the latest on Dirtnap’s ever nebulous release schedule.

Psyched To Die – Year One CD’s just showed up. Will have ’em on the website by the end of day.  Order please.

The Estranged – singles comp LP, Psyched To Die – Scatter Brained 7″ and The Raydios – Now LP are all  at pressing plant. Expect ’em in July.

Airfix Kits – Playing Both Sides 7″ is about to go to pressing plant.

Mean Jeans LP/CD is being sequenced and will be sent off for mastering in the coming week.

Coconut Coolouts will be releasing a Halloween-themed 7″ on (wait for it) Halloween. Haven’t heard the recordings, but there is no way this is not going to rule. Come on.

Young Offenders singles comp LP is looking like it might wind up being a 2010 release.

Speaking of 2010 releases, we got some great shit in various stages of being lined up.  Probably a little early to hand out details just yet, but suffice to say there’ll be somethin’ for the whole fucking family………………….
