mugsy Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 New from John Wilkes Booth Records + RSD Weekend Sale! (Lipstick Homicide, Turkletons, Smokejumper, American Lies) We’re proud to announce two new releases this weekend. The first is a split 7” between two excellent Midwest pop punk bands, LIPSTICK HOMICIDE and THE TURKLETONS. You might know Iowa’s pride, Lipstick Homicide from their split LP with Billy Raygun on JWB or their appearance on Adeline Records’ “The Thing That Ate Larry Livermore” compilation. At any rate, you don’t want to skip out on the female fronted front loaded in your face pop punk that I have heard several refer to as “girl Green Day.” On the flip side The Turkletons are fresh off their sold out split with heavy hitting crime pop band Masked Intruder and come at you with two songs about god knows what. It’s clean, fast, and makes you wonder why they never leave Minneapolis. Oh well! Fronted by Chris Dickhead of Strait A’s “fame” The second is ANOTHER split 7”, this time between west coast bands SMOKEJUMPER and AMERICAN LIES. Smokejumper, from Seattle, play melody driven pop punk featuring old dudes who really do not want to get off the couch all that much. In the past, Smokejumper has also released a split with San Jose’s defunct The Pillowfights on Silver Sprocket and a self-titled full length CD. American Lies are a little younger and are from Southern California, where they bask in the sunshine and get a little noodlier, but never become unanchored from a driving beat anchored by bass and drums. American Lies have several other releases to peruse including a 1-sided 12” on Muy Autentico Records. Not only are these fresh slabs available to you NOW, but in honor of RECORD STORE DAY we’ve put the whole webstore marked town 20% off (TWENTY PERCENT OFF!!!!). This extends THIS WEEKEND ONLY so pick up the new stuff at a discount and be sure to check out our newly updated distro with tons of current and older punk and pop punk essentials.
