Shorebirds news (now with Pics)!


Recommended Posts

So I found this:

http://www.weeklyvolcano.com/2008-01-24/sound-check/1745/

And it mentioned some cool projects so I googled Rummbletowne and found the following:

V/A We Do What We Want 7"

5 bands! 5 songs! One 7"! Featuring SonSkull, Comin' Up Roses, BlackBear, Hooky and Shorebirds. A document of what a bunch of loosely affiliated weirdos did in Olympia in 2007. You know how comps are usually bad? Well, this one is seriously good. These songs are all friends. Hand-Screened, hand-stamped, includes awesome zine, limited to 500

This:

Rumble 001

Shorebirds/Something's Wrong Split 7"

One long-ass song per band. If you like pop-punk and you don't like this, something is wrong with you. Split release with Cookout records.

$4.00

and this:

Rumble 002

Shorebirds - It's Gonna Get Ugly LP

recorded by steve albini!!!

$7.00

After shitting myself and wiping up I wrote the label and got this back:

hey rich, matt here. both 7 inch's should be out in like 3 weeks, they

are off of to press and we are just waiting to get them back from the

plant. the shorebirds full length still hasn't even been recorded yet,

but it is written, we are hoping to have that out by summer. for

starters we are only doing mail order (cash check or money order) but

eventually they paypal will be up. just check the website in a couple

weeks and it should be up there. thanks alot, talk to ya soon

So, looks like time for more hidden money mailing.

A friend of mine who was very close to Matt and still talks to him on occasion says he's pretty anti-Myspace and just anti-Internet in general right now and that he only wants to do stuff mailorder the old way.

Hopefully nobody thinks I'm name dropping or anything, I'm not trying to sound cool or anything, just relaying info from somebody who knows his feelings on this and why there were never any PayPal checkouts for the last 7".
