  1. while i agree with that with his recorded stuff, i really appreciate watching him do what he does live. also, that 4 dj round table with the scratch pickles in that movie is crazy.
  2. Scratch is an amazing documentary. the pieces on Shadow are really inspiring. if you have a chance, check out his "boiler room" set. its crazy.
  3. check out a song: http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=3225241 pre-order: http://www.torjohnsonrecords.com/store Burlington, VT’s Tyler Daniel Bean is back with a brand new 2-song 7″ on Tor Johnson / Kat Kat Records. You can listen to “I Was Wrong” from Everything You Do Scares Me on Absolute Punk now. The 7″ is available in three color variants (Kat Kat Records, Tor Johnson Records, and Tyler himself will each have an exclusive variant). Planned for a July 9th release, both labels have multiple pre-order options now available in their online stores. Pre-Order from Tor Johnson or Kat Kat. Everything You Do Scares Me follows up Bean’s debut LP, Longing, released in 2012 on Kat Kat Records. With his critically acclaimed 2012 debut LP, Longing, behind him, Tyler Daniel Bean returns with Everything You Do Scares Me—a 2 song 7″ that examines the deep-seated effects of loss and our innate ability to accept life’s ebb and flow in and out of normalcy. Housed in a beautiful hand-screened chip-board jacket, this record is a perfect modern-day addition to all those 90s emo records that have worn thin on your turntable from years and feelings long passed. Lyrically and musically, these songs portray the fleeting sadness and the necessary sorrow that we must embrace before looking to the inevitable future. These songs are surely sad, but they are sad in a profound and thoughtful way.

  9. well, there might be a think early Sept....we'll see. or for you DC area people.....the three of us might come down there as an excuse to play with Monument....
  10. bump this. should have the record in hand & shipping in a couple weeks. sorry to anyone that is confused by this: if you want my color, order from me; want tim's, order from him; want both, order from either...want the BP exclusive color.....gonna have to wait to see them live (at Fest?) or i think they will put their's for sale on their bandcamp when everything comes in. anyway, super excited to be working with tim on this!! the record is coming together awesomely!
  11. PVD show just got worked out. flyer/fb event/etc etc coming soon: June 28th @ AS220 9pm $5 The Attending (prefect rock & roll) Ask The Dead (mem. Prayers For Atheists, POW; melt your face rock) Dikembe new un-named band featuring members of Masthead. yup.
  12. excited to be booking the PVD show. pissed it wasn't able to work out with Best Practices on it....but its gonna be awesome regardless!!!
  13. ok, wood burned covers are gone. still place a pre-order to guarantee colored vinyl, or get a discount on both the WTR & TJR colors (if that's your thing).
  14. i was going to keep quiet about who got the rad covers......but fuck it. you both got in on time!! thank you all for the support! keep those orders coming. i got a couple more wood burned covers (but they are going faster than i ever would have thought)
  15. to go along with this, we are running 50% off all TJR releases for the next week. so add on any other TJR releases you are missing. collect them all.
  16. Pre-Orders will be going live for the latest release by Providence RI's Best Practices, "Sore Subjects", on Monday 5/6/13 between 2pm & 3pm EST. Options will include: 1 copy of the record on either the Tor Johnson Records or Willow Tree exclusive colors (brown marble & white, respectively) or 2 copies of the record on each exclusive color. There is also an exclusive shirt option. The first 10 people to order through Tor Johnson Records will receive exclusive wood burned cover art from artist Jeff Byers. There will also be an exclusive color available through the band, which will only be available at shows & directly from them. Thank you so much for all your support. Crafted over a mild winter, Providence, RI’s Best Practices return with Sore Subjects. Some of the members have called the sophomore effort “a natural progression” from their debut The EP LP, released on Tiny Engines last year. Other members are more concerned with Poco Loco Tacos to be trifled with such nonsense as reflection. Clocking in around 11 minutes with 4 songs, Sore Subjects is a taste of something equal parts familiar, refreshing, aggressive, and passionate. Narcs need not apply. http://www.torjohnsonrecords.com | http://www.willowtreerecords.bigcartel.com
  17. thanks dude!! everything's finally coming together. looks like pre-order will probably go up next week, (probably monday the 6th). still working out the details, but it looks like the options will be: TJR exclusive color or both TJR & WTR exclusive color, and you can add on a BP shirt for cheap. first 10 orders are going to come with exclusive wood burned jackets too.
