Green River Band.......

This tape is taking a little longer than expected due to the band wanting to tweak a few things and get the artwork right, the artwork is done, printed, and looking awesome, we just need the tracks back from them and then we'll get it out to you.....


In other news, the Sofa King EP is nearly finished, with vocals being laid down in the coming week...

Next up.........

CBC002 - Up A Lovely Creek With 4 Paddles by The Green River Band

Have a listen here - http://greenriverband.bandcamp.com

This lovely 4 track EP runs in at just under 6 minutes and covers a hell of a lot of ground in such a short space of time. With an obvious crooning charm and interesting interlocking guitar parts this flows nicely possibly verging into noise pop, but not with the cliches associated with the lovely genre.

Due out Friday 4th March

CBC003 - Sofa King EP

More details soon......

Wednesday 23 February 2011

Good evening all.....

Today is a special day, special in the fact that starting our own label/distro is no longer a pipe dream......

CBC001 - La Boite Diabolique - Other Band Tape



Presenting our first release, a 5 track EP by mine and Joe C's new band La Boite Diabolique, a post punky/dream pop/jangly outfit that is still rather fresh, but gaining momentum swiftly, with talks of a 7" release with the nice guys at strictly no capital letters due for the fall.

Here is a review for the Other Band Tape - http://collective-zine.co.uk/reviews/?id=7890
And here is where you can hear it online - http://laboitediabolique.bandcamp.com/album/other-band-tape

As I mentioned before we're currently trying to get together a distro to get our tapes out there and to help other labels in the same fashion. If ya fancy a trade, get in touch, we're a nice bunch. Shame we haven't got any more stuff for this weekend............................

THE NO SLEEP TILL SNEINTON TOUR = LBD's first run of gigs.....

25th FEB @ Stuck on a Name Studios in Nottingham with SAUNA YOUTH, SOFT PYRAMIDS and HUMAN HANDS
26th @ a House Show in Leeds LS6 with SAUNA YOUTH
27th @ Spencer's Yard in Leamington Spa with SAUNA YOUTH, HUMAN HANDS and BIRD CALLS

We have plenty more shows in the pipeline, both promoting and playing so there's plenty of opportunity to pedal our wares and spread the word of great bands and labels we collaborate with.

Get in touch, lets trade :)

that's all folks......

Lots of love.....Phil
