andynelson Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Hi humans, Our debut 7" is out now on Katorga Works, and we suggest you buy it ASAP, so Sharkey's children can afford to go to a nice private school: This is the debut 7" single of Philadelphia's Dark Blue. Reminiscent of late 80's English oi!/pop, the band's sound is not unlike the perfect marriage of the Stone Roses and Last Resort. A magnificent simplicity is paired with tales of life in Canberra, the capital city of Australia and the spiritual home of bandleader John Sharkey III. http://katorgaworks.bigcartel.com/product/dark-blue-subterranean-man-7 http://katorgaworks.bigcartel.com/product/dark-blue-subterranean-man-7 http://katorgaworks.bigcartel.com/product/dark-blue-subterranean-man-7 You're also invited to download the record in its entirety for FREE, by clicking here: http://icoulddietomorrow.blogspot.com/2014/05/new-katorga-works-releases-blotter-dark.html or here: http://darkblueskins.bandcamp.com/ (Feel free to share!) / We also have a few shows planned. In theory, we'll have another new 7" in time for these. In theory.

stffn72 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Hi there, it has been a while since I was so blown away by a new Band, your records are all insanely awesome. Also insanely expensive, had to order two from overseas, I believe the blue album was never available here at all(Germany). Don't get me wrong, the records where not the expensive part, but USPS has gone bat shit crazy with the shipping fees. Would be great if someone would distribute your stuff on a reliable basis here. Anyway, are there new releases on the horizon? I'm craving already. Best wishes, Steffen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andynelson Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 So, as you know, we're headed out on a couple of weekends this month, playing places we've never played before. We don't play out too often, so it'll be a LONG time before we're back to any of these spots. These shows will be real good. Hope to see you.
