BONG pre-orders going very well, cheers to everyone who’s put in an order! The coloured vinyl copies are now all GONE. Still plenty of black and at the same low pre-order price! As ever, a lot of Americans getting put off by postage: my rates to overseas are LESS than it actually costs to send, so I lose money on every record I send abroad. I do this because I see no other way to tempt you guys to buy records. I used to do loads of sales to the USA and it has totally dried up in the past few years. I know you still buy records from over here as there are tons of labels who sell stuff out easilly all the time without huge distribution. I’d love to send tons over to your local distro but as ever, nobody wants to know. It’s a very frustrating situation, but all I can do is keep prices low. There’s kinda got to be a bit of give and take so maybe don’t whinge about it and accept that you’re getting a record that’s a good 50% cheaper than most other labels around charge!
Distro update again. Just got another few boxes of stuff in this morning but thought I’d put up what I’ve written up now!
Everything that I get in goes straight out to the shelves in the shop so if you come down you’ll get first dibs on everything. Always appreciate anyone dropping by, even if it’s just to say hello, so if you’re one of the hundreds who’s been “meaning to pop by”, you might find it wouldn’t kill you to help keep your local label alive and you might come away wi some cool gear!
Going to press this week will be new 7″s from VUIL and HORSE LATITUDES. Both will be limited to 300 copies and will do limited mail-order-only colours on them too.
