Columbus Discount Recordings Year Two!

Wow, just got news of this a few days ago, I guess everyone who's ordered in the past gets first crack at another year, another series.
I have to say CDR has been completely amazing, after finally getting two of the three Down in the ground releases 9 months later, CDR didn't have a delay the entire year....and with color vinyl no less! They really have their shit together, it was an amazing lineup of stuff that isn't going to be out anywhere else.
It makes getting the mail exciting again...every couple of months, holy shit, this is why I still go outside.
Pink reason, El Jesus De Magico, TV Ghost, Little Claw, Dan Melchior, and the Cheater Slicks (Just got this yesterday) with a bunch of other stuff I needed to know about. You better believe I'm going through these now. It's impossible to keep up with, I still haven't listened to my last batch. I wished I gave these serious attention the first year, hopefully this one will give me a chance to talk about these.
I guess I just feel a little bad because once it's sold out, is there any point in telling everyone how great the El Jesus De Magic is?
I'm rubbing it in your face!
Oh well.... get in the CDR train.
I swear of Hozac has a year two, I'm going to have to put off that operation for grandma.

Oh, speaking of semi-funny lists of things, here's the list of records (in no particular order) you'll get if you subscribe!

Bassholes
Electric Bunnies
Deathly Fighter
Tyvek
Dead Clodettes
Outer Spacist
Hue Blanc's Joyless Ones
Cheveu
Puffy Areolas
Jakob Olausson
Necropolis
Harrisburg Players, Vol. 2

Oh, and one of those records (we ain't sayin' which) is gonna be a 12" single instead of a 7" and there could always be more spooktacular surprises in store.** This time, there will be a total of 400 subscriptions available and the first record will ship in October, the month after CDRSCY1! is complete.

Next year, we will offer a credit card. The year after that, we'll just be a bank and not put out records anymore. The year after that, we hope to be beheaded in the Great American Cultural Revolution.

New bored fortress club - Year 3


I missed out on Year two of the bored fortress seven inch subscription club, but year one was pretty amazing....silevr daggers, robedoor, yellow swans, racoo-oo-oon, just amazing split after amazing split with informative inserts written by NNF, it was an education in noise. I somehow missed out on year 2 but tried to pick them up when I saw them listed individually at ss records.
This years is almost ready and I'll keep checking and announce it here as soon as I hear about it.
Thurston played the knitting factory last night and he made an acoustic guitar sound huge and would hold it against the amp and behind his head feedbacking everywhere. He's nearly 50 and I think even in high school I knew that they had been around forever and weren't something you should mess with unless you are prepared to take seriously. Hopefully he will have 50 more.

This email was sent Saturday from Not Not Fun:
5) BORED FORTRESS YEAR THREE IS CLOSE we should be putting our annual split 7" club up for sale in the next 72 hours or so. we're thrilled as heck about the artists and bands on board this year, so keep an eye out for it if yr into this sort of thing.
