yeah_totally Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Out March 30 on A-F Records. Bundle and lp options. Spanish Love Songs is a five piece punk band based in Los Angeles, CA. They formed in 2014 after the demise of a previous band and a chance Craiglist post about lonely people looking to go to punk shows. Their sound combines the energy of drunken bar shows with the immediacy of intimate, lived-in lyrics. The band has spent the past two years expanding their sound both musically and lyrically, as evidenced by the songs on Schmaltz. More anthemic than ever, the band confidently tears through these songs in which Slocum turns his attention inward, trying to find positivity and self-acceptance in a world that doesn’t always feel like home. It’s new territory for the band of so-called grouch punks, as they try to grow into the best version of the band (& themselves). They’ll try to enjoy it. ***please note: this is a pre-order item and will ship on or around it's release date of 3/30/18*** http://a-frecords.limitedrun.com/categories/spanish-love-songs New song: RIYL; the Menzingers, Pup, Captain We're Sinking Edited January 31, 2018 by yeah_totally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's pretty good!" One of my friends said that if I'd just played SLS for him without telling him what band it was, he would have totally thought it was a new Menzingers album. I mean hey, there's far worse bands to emulate! And this album is definitely a contender for AOTY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzo Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Someone i know described it as the sound of The Menzingers, the wonder years lyrics and Pup energy that break in buffalo, buffalo is so good ”Would you meet me in the middle?” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Took me a few listens to get into his voice, but this album is definitely awesome. Ordered it yesterday with that new Swiss Army LP, so I'll receive them both last this month. Looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vodkablast Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I just got into this band recently. Is all their stuff always impossible to get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you looking for from them? If you want a colored copy of Schmaltz that ships from the US, I would keep an eye on the A-F Records page: http://a-frecords.limitedrun.com/products/610176-spanish-love-songs-schmaltz-lp-mp3 None available now but you can click the "Want an "It's Available!" Email Notification?" link to be notified when they add another, can't imagine you'd have to wait long. And there is a "beer" copy of BFE on MerchNow at the moment: https://merchnow.com/products/v2/325717/brave-faces-everyone-beer It's not as nice as some of the other presses they've had in the past, but it should hold you over for now, especially considering it's only $18 before shipping.

For the record we’ve pressed 7100 units of BFE so far in a little over a year, so not exactly impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCDELTAT Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Wonder when there will be a new US press of this. Very tempted to order this from EU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezfools Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Definitely overdue and not much in the used market either. I've slept on this way too long.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCDELTAT Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 BTW this got a repress. It probably won’t be there much longer. Two variants sold out, others probably close. http://a-frecords.limitedrun.com/products/610176-spanish-love-songs-schmaltz-lp-mp3 I apparently had access to buy the tri-stripe through the A-F discord but I turned off notifications so oops. I finally was able to get a copy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacDonals Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I ordered shortly after your post and only the gold variant was left. This seems like it went fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
