soniklife Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 SANDY CITY "SURFIN' WA" ONE SIDED 12 INCH PRE-ORDERS I have been waiting for this day to arrive for a long, long, long time but finally today I shall start taking pre-orders for SANDY CITY's incredible "Surfin' WA" one sided 12 inch are. The test presses were approved several weeks ago and the records were just finished this past week by the fine folks at Rainbo. The records shall be heading out to the band to have their b-sides screened and then they'll be shipped back here to Rok Lok HQ. This one sided 12 inch is limited to 300 pieces but we are making a strict limit of 30 pre-order editions that will have a two color gradient screened b-side and a numbered sleeve. The standard edition will just be white ink screened on to the naked b-side. The goal is to have pre-orders ship by early June. In the mean time be sure to check it out on Bandcamp:http://roklokrecords.bandcamp.com/album/surfin-wa Sandy City play upbeat lo fi indie/surf punk that is a cross between Cause Co-Motion!, Eric's Trip. Crayon, and the Beach Boys. I even hear some early Tullycraft in here. Solid stuff. The record is limited to 300 pieces and is a one sided 12 inch with a silk screen on the b-side. It is packaged in a fold over black & white cover and includes a insert. "Surfin' WA" was originally released as a cassette on Fox Pop Audio Company.

geezfools Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I've been out surfing in WA tons of times. Tempted to pick this up for that reason alone. Taking a listen right now though, starting with westport, my favorite shitty fishing town in washington by far. Get yourself some donuts at little richards if you ever visit PS If I order tonight, would I be getting a PO edition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soniklife Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 haha. That rules. The first 30 orders receive the pre-order edition. Once I hit 30 orders are caught off until the regular edition is ready to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
