Denver's long running vacation rock juggernaut is taking over 2020! The new album from SPELLS, "Stimulants & Sedatives",
will be released on LP/Digital on February 14th. The 11-song sophomore album is delivered in 2 parts: a Stimulants
side and a Sedatives side. Both sides rule, just like SPELLS! The first
single off the album, 'We've Arrived', is out now on all digital platforms. You can listen to and/or download it on our bandcamp HERE. It is a donation-based track with proceeds benefiting Elevating Connections. It's also on our bandcamp sampler. Pre-orders for the "Stimulants & Sedatives" LP are now live in our Web Store HERE. This is a split release with Rad Girlfriend Records. SPELLS will be hitting the road a few times in support of the new album, plus they have a few more plans that will unfold later this year. Your first chance to catch them live in 2020 is on their west coast tour in February with Drakulas, which wraps back in Denver for a hometown record release show on February 29th. Check band web sites for dates and details!

Charlie Continental has whipped up another jingle! The Grawlix Saves the World is a hilarious new podcast and The Grawlix gang (Adam Cayton-Holland, Andrew Orvedahl and Ben Roy) asked Charlie to write them a theme song, which he of course did. It's
called "We're Getting Fixed (The Grawlix Save The World)"
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. Yeah we know, The Grawlix say "saves" but Charlie says "save". He worked with what he knew at the time and now we have a fun fact! Keen
listeners might remember Charlie penned the theme song for The Grawlix crew's television show "Those Who Can't" that aired for 3 fantastic seasons. We'll figure out some
sort of physical release for this latest tune and the digital version will hit all the other digi-streaming spots later this month. The Grawlix Saves The World podcast launched on 1/14/20, so set your pod-dial right now. Thanks for listening!

Friends and fans, 2019 was a banner year for Snappy Little Numbers Quality Audio Recordings. We want to thank everyone for the incredible support! We know our listeners are special and because of that, we're gonna make sure 2020 is another great year for excellent ears. That brings us to our next two releases, a fine pair of 7"s that will be out in January. First, Denver-based Latino-psychaldelic-Peruvian-chicha superstars Don Chicharron will release "Valle b/w En La Gruta Del Rey De La Montaña" on January 10th. The release show will be later that night at Denver's 3 Kings Tavern. This record is our second Community Collaboration project and it's fully sponsored by us and Don Cheech Discos with 100% of the money raised from the sales of this release

Next, Golden, CO's truest troubadour Scooter James will release "We Bend b/w Dear Friends" on January 24th. Scooter's significant contributions to the Denver area music scene over the last 25+ years cannot be overstated. Pinhead Circus, Love Me Destroyer, Tin Horn Prayer... Scooter has done it all and shared it all. This record marks his first official solo outing (and the birth of his new Dead Format label) and we'll all celebrate with a release show on January 25th at Streets Denver. Pre-orders are up in our Web Store HERE. Hint: pre-order both the Don Chicharron 7" and Scooter James 7" in a bundle HERE to save some dough and get 'em both delivered at the same time!

In an escalation of the NoMusicForICE campaign, we recently issued takedown
notices to pull our music from Amazon’s digital platform. We're standing in solidarity with many other like-minded labels/artists and will keep our digital music off of Amazon until they cut ties with ICE. During the holiday shopping & travel season, when music sales are
often at their peak, wouldn’t it be great if we didn’t feed the
infrastructure that allows government agencies to abuse human rights on a
mass scale? To learn more check out nomusicforice.com. Thanks so much for all the support!

Cheap Perfume has two long playing albums out now! "Burn It Down" is the brand newest of the new, 8 ripping riot grrrl punk anthems that start strong and never let up. It shows a band in full control of their sound and message. "Burn It Down" spins at 45rpm, comes on translucent aqua swirl vinyl and includes a download code. "Nailed It" is a remastered reissue of Cheap Perfume's 12-song 2016 debut album. The urgency and meaning sound just as fresh as they did 3 years ago, but bigger. "Nailed It" spins at 33.3rpm, comes on translucent red vinyl and includes a download code. You can grab both albums in our Web Store. You can order them each separately, but we suggest you grab both by ordering a Bundle Set so you can increase your rock n' roll return with a thriftier investment. Bundles Sets will remain in our Web Store until the end of the year, so act fast! If you prefer digital only, you can grab both albums from our bandcamp! It's also available on all your other favorite digi-streamers. Denver record stores are fully stocked and Recess Ops is handling the rest of the USA.
These are our final releases of 2019. We have lots more in store for 2020. Thanks for the support as always!SLN-163 Pressing Info: 300 12" LP's on translucent aqua swirl vinyl, download code included. SLN-162 Pressing Info: 300 12" LP's on translucent red vinyl, download code included.

The original Armchair Martian "Demo" has officially been reissued by ours truly (is that grammatically correct?!) on cassette/digital today! It comes on translucent green cassette tape with full digital download of course. Armchair Martian will be playing the Blasting Room
25th Anniversary show at Washington's in Ft. Collins on Saturday 11/23/19 to
celebrate the release as well as the birthday for the longtime Colorado recording facility. It's great timing as the Armchair Martian demo was
one of the earliest recordings done at the Blasting Room. Order
your copy in our Web Store HERE!
It's also available on all the digital/streaming spots, including our bandcamp HERE! You know it'll also be in all the best record spots thanks to Recess Ops as well. This cassette is the only physically in-print and broadly available
digital Armchair Martian release currently available, so if you've been searching for
their tunes, we have you covered with the very batch. This session still packs a mighty wallop and is a testament to how timeless the songs are. Pressing Info: 100 translucent green cassette tapes, download code included.
