The Black Rainbow "We Radiate" 7" is out and available for ordering now. Just follow the instructions on the ordering page. That's about all for this year. I hope to be out of debt in the next couple of months and maybe you will see more than 1 or 2 releases next year.

Black Rainbow put out another 7" just before the one I released as well, you can pick it up from the good folk over at Thrillhouse Records

We Radiate!
The Black Rainbow 7" is near completion. It should have been done last week but unfortunately some problems with the pressing plates led to the first test pressings being rejected and I'm waiting for new plates and test presses as we speak. I'm hoping they will arrive this week or early next and hopefully I'll have the records in hand within 2-3 weeks. It's a bummer of a delay as the band left for tour last Friday, but we all decided it was more important to have a record that sounded good, rather than approve a pressing that we were a little unhappy with.

The covers are all done and you can check out the full color glory here:

You can check out the other Black Rainbow 7" that did make it in time for the tour, released by the great folk over at Thrillhouse Records.

As soon as this project is finished up, the Nothington lp is next on the list and is currently just waiting on some artwork.

Also, on the "I am an idiot" note. If anyone has a spare copy of the This is My Fist ep on red vinyl or the Allergic To Bullshit ep on blue vinyl....sell me a copy. I discovered last month that I never saved a copy of either of these for myself. Whoops.

More soon....
