Summer Pre-order Update

Hey guys, here’s a quick update where we are at with the delayed vinyl.

Hostage Calm LPs - The 12″ covers were printed one sided instead of 2 sided, and had to be redone. We are told they will be done and shipping to us this week.

Tigers Jaw - Self Titled on all colors of vinyl is in and shipping. Almost 200 of these have already been sent out. White vinyl just came today so please be patient. The Tigers Jaw Acoustic Series #2 7″ is also shipping along with the Self Titled CD and CD packages.

Man Overboard - Real Talk LPs will be in stock and shipping this Friday, August 6th. We hope to have all of them sent out by Tuesday. CD’s and CD packages have all been sent out.

Again we apologize for the slight delay, but thankfully it wasn’t too bad. Releasing 4 records at one time was an interesting experience.

Run For Cover signs GDP

We are proud to officially announce our signing of New Jersey rapper GDP.

It’s safe to say GDP has been busy in the last year. Two releases, multiple national/international DIY tours, and shows with Wu-Tang, RZA and Tame One only begin to scratch the surface. GDP’s relentless work ethic coupled with a strong connection to the east coast hardcore scene caught our ears/eyes over a year ago, and I am happy to finally publicly welcome GDP to our roster.

Upcoming GDP shows:

August 5 New Brunswick, NJ (POW CASSETTE RELEASE)
August 6 Cape May, NJ
August 13 Chattanooga, TN
August 14 Chattanooga, TN

GDP’s Run For Cover debut, “Useless Eaters” is currently slated for a Winter 2011 release. You can listen to his latest offering, the “Magic Bullet Cassette” for free here.
