This Microwave World in New Comp
This Microwave World's single "The Party Line" was recently featured in a new compilation called Copper Label put out by Marlboro along with some other of our favorite bands including The Winter Pagaent and Grand Champeen. Look for it wherever cigarrettes are smoked!
South San Gabriel/Okkervil River Split 7"
In the midst of moving offices, we found another box of these collector's gems! We still only have a few left, so hurry and grab one! Beautiful cover art designed by former Okkervil drummer Mark Pedini and Centro-matic/SSG frontman Will Johnson. First side is Will Johnson's haunting and beautiful "Stark Miami Mines," recorded in a silo outside of Denton, Texas. The other half is Okkervil River's "Satisfy You," a ramshackle blend of gut-wrenching lyrics and heartache strings. Buy it in the Releases Section.
