Yes! We've got a few leftovers. I just put them up in the store... http://soundstudyrecordings.limitedrun.com/products/505887-post-teens-mauser-split-flexi

The weather has cooled off and the local venues are hiding their breakables and scrambling to stock their walk-ins with cheap beer. This could only mean one thing in Gainesville--FEST 11 is around the corner. For the thousands of punks ascending on our dear city this weekend, we have a little treat for you. We got together with our pals POST TEENS and those lovable punks MAUSER to do a FEST 11 exclusive split flexi. POST TEENS contributed a brand new track, "Strapped in", while MAUSER turned in their brutal cover of bombanfall's "Mot En Stralande Framtid." Two short little bursts of fury on one flexible record. Artwork was crafted by the Mauser's always tasteful and eloquent Adrian Rierson. There will be 500 of them and they will be available Friday at the Sound Study Recordings table in the Flea Market during registration as well as Arrow's Aim Records all weekend. Also, if anyone is coming to this and wants anything special (test pressings, ect) let me know, I'm packing stuff up tonight.

Unfortunatley the sale is over but we did just get those Beach House "Bloom" 2xLP's back in stock. They are still just $17!

Hey folks, I wanted to post and let people know that we are Black Bear Studios are getting into the mastering game... We have done it here and there in the past but are going to try and put a little more focus on that end of the process. We offer some pro gear, a good listening environment and well trained ears. The plan is to keep it cheap for a while to get more established, $40 for a 7" and $100 for an LP to start. We'd be happy to offer a test master for people trying to get an idea of what we are capable of. We have a working, calibrated 1/2" tape machine that we can bounce to, but if you want to use tape, you'll have to pay for it. 30 minutes reels of new ATR tape are $100.

Incessant troubadours City of Ships, recharged and revitalized are once again set to embark on a monster cross continental tour. The commanding trio are set to bring their thunderous live show to Canada, the US and Australia this July and August. The Ships are out in support of their latest effort, Minor World, an album that was met with critical adoration--rightfully called a "masterpiece" by Alternative Press and "the kind of effort that pushes the band closer to “they can do no wrong” status" by Absolutepunk.net. To celebrate the band's pilgrimage, we've got a few treats in store for COS fans. First up, we are temporarily lowering the price of Minor World on 210 gram (that's as heavy as it gets folks) vinyl to just $7. The record can be purchased for that discounted price HERE. Secondly, we are running a contest with our good friends at Modern Vinyl to give away a couple copies of the LP. Head over to modern-vinyl.com to enter. As a final gift, COS' two previous works that we released Look What God Did To Us LP and the follow up Three Mile Bridge 7" and both available for FREE digital download right HERE Tour Dates 7/5 - Brooklyn, NY @ Public Assembly w/ Tidal Arms 7/6 - Troy, NY @ Dublin's 7/7 - Montreal, QC @ L'Absynthe 7/9 - Toronto, ON @ Parts and Labor 7/10 - Detroit, MI @ TBA * 7/11 - Port Huron, MI @ The Grotto * 7/12 - Chicago, IL @ Ultra Lounge * 7/13 - Wausau, WI @ The Stank * 7/14 - Minneapolis, MN @ TBA * 7/15 - Lincoln, NE @ Bourbon Theater 7/16 - Denver, CO @ Old Curtis St Tavern w/ Adai, Kingdom of Magic 7/17 - Salt Lake City, UT @ Shred Shed 7/18 - Boise, ID @ The Shredder 7/19 - Seattle, WA @ The Funhouse w/ Lesbian 7/20 - Vancouver, BC @ Funky's 7/21 - Portland, OR @ Plan B w/ Low Sky (mems.

We will be re-stocking those, but unfortunately it probably won't be any time very soon. Our stock in the other sizes is pretty solid right now so I suspect another printing is a month or so off. If you want I can substitute any other shirt we sell that we have in XL.

We are selling test pressing of Chris Wollard & The Ship Thieves "Anybody Else" b/w "Left To Lose" to help raise some funds for new records. Auction ends today! http://www.ebay.com/...984.m1555.l2649
