Def Jam. Dischord. Hewhocorrupts Inc., Kill Rock Stars, Let's Pretend Records, Motown Records, Wax Trax! Records.
All of our releases are available below. Shipping is $2.00 for the first, and $1.00 for each additional item. Consider it.
THE BROKEDOWNS - Six Songs $5.00 (CDEP)
Six songs recorded between 2006's These Colors Don't Run (The Musical) and 2007's New Brains For E'rbody. Includes a cover of V.Reverse's "Clinical Rock," UK smash "Git'r'dunification," and what Kris describes as a Fat Wreck aesthetic. Whatever. Dan does -in fact- have powers.
Three songs by both bands. One cover song by both bands. Millions of brain cells were killed in the making of this record. A split release with our bro label Let's Pretend Records. A cd-r of the songs included if requested.
THE BUDGETS / BUST! - Destroy Modern Rock / Improve Modern Rock $4.00 (split-7")
The Budgets are two lovable dummies from Billings, Montana that write fast, bent out of shape garage punk. BUST! are three dummies that write fast, bent out of shape pop punk. Two songs by each band. Red or black vinyl. A cd-r of the songs is included if requested. Again, whatever.
BUST!'s first full length. 10 songs. They are borderline obsessed with Scared of Chaka. They also like the Marked Men and getting hit in the nuts. If you listen to this record, all of that should be pretty obvious.
Two songs by Miss Chica X, our all-time favorite Quad Cities child noise-pop star and three songs by Hewhocorrupts, our favorite Chicago grind-pop stars. Very exciting! A cd-r of the songs included if requested.
Dr Manhattan’s sophomore release. Hyperactive, lovingly spastic party-punk is still the easiest way to sum up the Wauconda, IL-based quintet’s music. Jam Dreams is still heavy on the fun, caked in the free-spirited strangeness the band is known to embrace and revel in. It’s just they’ve matured a bit, or rather they’ve brought a more diverse and sophisticated array of ingredients to the food fight.
Elephant Gun's first full length. 13 songs. Ballroom folk with bluegrass, Americana, and punk leanings. Heavy on The Boss. Drummer Ryan Wizniak loves eating buffalo wings.
Heart Shaped Hate's debut EP. Two piece electro-punk band. Jenna and Natali. Spastic, sugar coated noise-pop songs about being eaten, being zombies, and being um... fashionable.
Two songs by Heart Shaped Hate and two songs by The Most Genuine Expression about drinking, fighting and fucking on less than admirable circumstances. CD-r included upon request.
JBBA, Wonder Lake, Illinois' best punk rock band... ever. This CD compiles their first two self-released records. Re-recorded with six previously unreleased, newer songs. Rad shit. Brian loves WOW. John loves anime. Evan loves beer. Jon loves playing drums.
The Muzzler’s debut full-length, Common Sense is a thrash-core record in every respect: Direct, fast, loud, and unforgiving. But while each song on Common Sense fits the thrash-core mold, the Chicago based three-piece incorporate sludge, grind, punk, and old fashion metal into their aggressive style effortlessly.
Spazz-jazz junkies Paper Mice debut record. Imagine the stripped down funk-punk of the Minutemen with Jon Spencer picking up vocal duties after being forced to consume a decade’s worth of the world’s most peculiar news stories.
If Vacation Bible School was actually Punk Rock Camp and these three dudes ran a workshop called "Pop-Punk, Nihilism and You," and spent as much time smoking as they did teaching you... and covered your band's Vandal's cover better than you were willing to admit... you'd still really like this record. Nice guys too.
