"S.S. Endurance" 12" LP pre-orders

While the "official" release date for our debut full-length, "S.S. Endurance" isn't until the 28th of June; The fine folks at Whoa! Boat Records are offering a pre-order sale with free first class shipping, with all orders shipping Thursday, June 16th. Each jacket is hand-numbered and will be shipped sequentially, based on order. There are 100 on white vinyl, numbered 1-100, and 200 on black vinyl, numbered 101-300. The vinyl is all deluxe 150 gram, and comes with a digital download code, and full 11" X 11" lyric sheet. If you'd prefer to only purchase the digital version of the album, with complete artwork, I'd recommend our bandcamp site. The digital album is available (in any format you choose) for only $6, or seventy-five cents a track. "S.S. Endurance" will also be available via iTunes in the next couple months or so, but it'll be a couple extra bucks, 'cuz, well, that's how they roll. The record release party for the aforementioned album (again, "S.S. Endurance") will be held at The Comet Tavern on the 27th of July, a Wednesday, in the beautiful neighborhood of Capitol Hill in Seattle, Washington. The details aren't final just yet, but we're hoping a certain band from Portland, Oregon will join us for the night.

And, now, without further ado, the "buy now" button for our new eight-track full-length album, "S.S. Endurance":

"S.S. Endurance" 12"

Fuck yes! The test pressings for our debut full-length, "S.S. Endurance" recently landed at Whoa! Boat HQ. As a result, we've been drunkenly spinning the white hot 12" at 45rpm, like, uh, a lot. Needless to say, it's been approved, and the vinyl is currently being pressed by United. We did the artwork ourselves, and we'll have it posted in the next couple of days. It's kinda dark. The artwork as well as an insert for the aforementioned album are being printed by Imprint in the next few days. I think the "official" release date will be sometime in late June (the 28th?), but if we have 'em for upcoming shows, you can buy 'em. Pre-orders will also be accepted in the next week or two, via Whoa! Boat. The total press will be 100 on white and 200 on black

Oh, we also have a video on the way for the lead track off the new record, "Tangible Things". Said video is being done by Matthew Cylinder, and should be finished Friday, May 20th. We'll have it posted. Here. Elsewhere. Everywhere.

Lots of shows coming up: May 26th @ The Funhouse, June 6th @ The Sunset, June 7th @ New Frontier (Tacoma), June 8th @ Plan B (Portland), & July 26th @ The Comet.
