jbannon Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Hey guys - I made this thread to add additional info on this project. Also it was annoying me that "Shield" was spelled incorrectly in the other thread, so yeah, here you go... Thanks. -J. Converge are proud to announce the self-release of their brand new 7"EP, "On My Shield". "On My Shield" was recorded at Godcity studios in-between the band's 2010 "Axe To Fall" U.S. & Euro tours. The release features the new song "On My Shield" on the A-side, while the B-side features a laser etching. "On My Shield" is limited to 3000 copies total, and is available in three different color variations (each limited to 1000 copies). Each copy of the release (excluding Euro tour copies, sorry folks) comes with a FREE Digital Download Coupon (located inside the physical 7"EP packaging), good for a high quality MP3 download of the release. The 7"EP will be available exclusively through the following distribution methods: Color #1 (limited to 1000) - Direct from the band on their "Axe To Fall" European tour (Note: No Download Coupon is available in this version) Color #2 (limited to 1000) - Through the official Converge Estore powered by Kingsroad (made available AFTER the tour) Color #3 (limited to 1000) - Vinyl retailers can purchase this release wholesale via Deathwish Direct Distribution (made available AFTER the tour) Once these 7"EPs are gone, they are gone forever. -J.

oakland Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I never manage to get this shit because I'm old and not on the Internet all fucking day long. Jake if you can find it in your heart to hold one for me I'll pay for it and dinner in Denver at the Watercourse next time you guys come through.

AsleepOnRocks Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I've got a friend that lives in Germany, but every show that Converge is playing over there is like, 6 hours from her. Looks like i'm not getting a Euro tour version... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thekillinme Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 a one song record is not an EP, it's a single (barely). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesupervillain Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 What if the song is 7 or 8 minutes long? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbannon Posted July 10, 2010 Author Share Posted July 10, 2010 Thanks for the support. We had a song and felt like it was ready to share. We thought it would be a challenge to get the release together in that short amount of time. Recording, designing, mastering, and manufacturing were all done in under four weeks time. We are collectively very happy with the final form it all took. Thanks to C/Z, Pirates Press, and Nomads of Prague for helping pull it all together. As for song/release length, I believe the final version came in around 5 minutes long. That's longer than many other bands full EP releases. Thanks again VC. -J.

jbannon Posted July 10, 2010 Author Share Posted July 10, 2010 As for holding copies, I will not be holding copies for anyone, sorry. We will be limiting (at our discretion) how many copies a person can buy at the shows. Thanks again. -j. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 So there's a black, a tan, and a blue. I'm guessing the color copies are the tour/deathwish colors and the black copies will go to distros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
