Hope you don’t mind this promotional comment, sorry if you do :) x
Just a quick message to let you know that we have just released the new DOWN FOR THE COUNT album “Broken Record Tactics”. It came out on Monday June 4th and is 11 tracks of sunshine filled pop-punk at its best.
'Broken Record Tactics' is a fun little record for fans of Cartel and The Starting Line. If you're in the mood for some chirpy, melodic pop-punk with a bit of a rockier edge, you could do a lot worse than to check them out.' - Punktastic.com

PEP-ROCKRECORDS.com - Only £6.99 (inc P&P) PLAY.com HMV.co.uk AMAZON.co.uk ITUNES UK NAPSTER.co.uk WOOLWORTHS.co.uk VIRGINMEGASTORES.co.uk
