ABANDON SHIP RELEASES

GOOD AS GOLD CD - 15 SONG ABANDON SHIP "DISCOG"

This CD was released in late 2008 by Ghost City Records. It collects all 15 tracks previously released tracks from Abandon Ship on one convenient CD. Blistering stuff. Full of alsorts of personal bile and frustration. Get a piece of someone else's anger in your soul. £8 POSTAGE PAID TO UK, £9 POSTAGE PAID TO REST OF THE WORLD.

   

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE "UNTITLED" 7"- 5 SONG 7" VINYL

This 7" was released during the Summer of 2006 by Ghost City Records. It's a bit more tense and taut than the previous releases. £5 POSTAGE PAID TO UK, £6 POSTAGE PAID TO REST OF THE WORLD.

   

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TIL I BURST - 6 SONG ONESIDE 12" VINYL

This 12" was released IN May 2005 by Ghost City Records. It is a one-sided 12" - a number of the release show copies had the cover artwork screenprinted onto the blank side of the record. REDUCED PRICE!!! £5 POSTAGE PAID TO UK, £7 POSTAGE PAID TO REST OF THE WORLD.

   

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SPLIT WITH THE PERMANENT - 3 SONGS FROM EACH BAND ON 7" VINYL

This split was released in 2004 by Speedowax Records. It was the first, post demo release by both bands.£5 POSTAGE PAID TO UK, £6 POSTAGE PAID TO REST OF THE WORLD.

   

T-SHIRTS

We have no more t-shirts at the moment. All the shirts from the last gig were sold at the last gig - kind of the way it was meant to be.

We have plans to print a bunch more just for people who wanted a shirt from the gig but couldn't attend. Message us if you're interested and we'll keep you in the know.

Thanks for reading.
