corey. Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Myself and a friend started a label/art collective called Near Mint. Today is the official "launch" with a pre-order of The Obsessives' Manners EP which you can get on cassette. We are planning to do vinyl by the summer and possibly a lathe cut before then. Regarding the art collective part, we will be doing limited edition prints of shirts, posters, zines, and cool things like that after our next few releases. You can check out our website here: www.wearenearmint.com An interview that goes more into detail about our label here: http://propertyofzack.com/post/98894817895/welcome-near-mint pushbacktosquare, Blaine, nancy_raygun and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alogical Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 You're a cool dude, love the cover art you've done. Not big on cassettes but once you come out with some vinyl, definitely buy something. corey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
