New Threads & Stuff!

We just posted a bunch of new apparel and merchandise in our web store!  New SLN shirts, hats and totes plus new SPELLS shirts, hats and koozies.  Check out our New Arrivals & Coming Soon section to have a look.  Our partner operation, Indie Rock Daydream, is responsible for screenprinting the hot new styles.  You'll also see our latest releases as well as some Super Saver packs we put together (lotsa recordings for not lotsa $) while perusing the New Arrivals & Coming Soon section.  While browsing the rest of our web store, the discerning shopper might notice some of our older apparel and recordings are priced to move (those items are almost gone, like, forever).  Gotta make room for all the new!  Thanks for the continued support!

Charlie Continental Jangles A New Jingle!

Charlie Continental is back at it with the jingles!  Werewolf Radar is a spooooky podcast that asked him to write them a tune for their relaunch which is slated for 5/27/19 and he was happy to oblige.  It's called "Come Howl With Us" and there are 2 versions, a full and an edit.  You can hear both and send a tip (if ya wanna, don't gotta!) on our bandcamp page HERE.  We'll figure out some sort of physical release at some point too.  Thanks for listening!

Mayday Mayday! Two Brand New Cassettes En Route!

We are keeping the release train rolling this spring!  May 31 will see the release of two new EPs in the always trusty cassette format.  First up, Lightning Cult will bring us "EP2: Ether Waves".  Lightning Cult is a project that hails from Santa Fe, NM and features Mike Marchant and Luke Carr.  Longtime Denver-ites will recognize Marchant from his time in countless top acts while he was a mile high resident from 2007-2012.  After 2012, Marchant relocated to New Mexico where he beat a cancer diagnosis and returned to his musical roots in 2018 with Carr.  "EP1: Burner" put the group on the sonic map and will also be included as a bonus to our pressing of EP2.  Next up, but no less smashing, The Half Hearts will be hitting us with their debut S/T EP.  The Half Hearts are a brand new duo from Denver, CO made up of Jason Heller and Karen Walton.  Heller has been a fixture of the underground music scene in Denver since the mid 90's and his credits include bands like Crestfallen, The Blue Ontario, Red Cloud West, The Fire Drills, 25 Rifles and Weathered Statues.  Walton rounds out the combo and drives the engine with her rapid-fire drumming.  You can preview singles from each band on our bandcamp sampler right now!

There's No Escaping SLN-150!

Longtime fans might recall that we started our catalog numbering with SLN-101, cuz we figured it looked cooler to start after 100.  Well, that means that SLN-150 is our 50th release!  Don't overthink the fact that we've done some super low-run alternate catalog-system items or that SLN-108 and SLN-136 never happened or that SLN-151 came out last week.  Let's just celebrate this semi-manufactured but well meaning big 5-0 together!  For our 50th release, we are pleased to present the Bad Year "My Escape" 12"!  This single sided 12" (yes, another one!) comes on opaque white vinyl with a screened B side in either pink, green or yellow ink and includes a download code.  There were 10 copies that also came with a set of 4 custom action figures (pink screen if you're keeping track) but those were snatched up during the first day of pre-orders.  Don't worry, the cover art should still satisfy those with a penchant for toys from the 80's.  The 6 tracks on this release should absolutely satisfy those with a penchant for 90's-style pop-punk!  You can order a vinyl copy from our web store HERE.  If you're a digital-only fine, grab it off our bandcamp HERE.  The vinyl is also available in Denver's best record shops and beyond thanks to Recess Ops and it's also on all the major digi-market-streaming places.  We are super excited to make it to 50 and we want to thank all our friends and fans for helping us get here.  If it's all the same to you, we'll keep on going!  Pressing Info: 10 single sided 12"s on opaque white vinyl with pink ink silk screened B sides plus a set of 4 custom action figures in blister packs on the cover. 90 single sided 12"s on opaque white vinyl with pink ink silk screened B sides. 100 single sided 12"s on opaque white vinyl with green ink silk screened B sides. 100 single sided 12"s on opaque white vinyl with yellow ink silk screened B sides. Download code included.

SLN-151 Offers A Plethora Of Standout Tracks!

"Everything Has Gotta Change", the brand new single sided 12" mini-album from BlackDots is officially out now!  At 8 songs, it's not quite an album but more than an EP, hence the "mini-album" tag.  I guess that means this is the first mini-album in the rich history of SLNQAR!  Each of the 8 songs on this record are exactly what BlackDots fans have come to expect; hearts-on-sleeves sing-along pop-punk anthems with an energetic twang that will stand the test of time.  This is the second time we've released a single sided 12" and the blueprint remains the same with an A side full of hits and a blank B side with a rad screened image.  For the 'Dots, this record is on translucent orange 12" vinyl that spins at 33.3 RPM and the B side has a cool reversed band logo silk screened with white ink.  A download code is included.  You can order a copy from our store right HERE.  Digi-fans out there can grab it off our bandcamp HERE.  The vinyl will also be available at your favorite Denver area record shops and more due to the continued awesomeness of Recess Ops, plus it's on all major digital platforms.  This is the release you need to get right now so you have each song memorized by the time spring transitions to summer and you want that perfect road trip record!  Pressing Info: 285 single sided 12"s on translucent orange vinyl with white ink silk screened B sides. Download code included. Split release with La Escalera Records.
