9/25/2006: New music from River City Rebels' THE BOPPER!

The new releases just won't stop! Next month we will be releasing the debut solo album from RIVER CITY REBELS front-man Daniel O'Day, also known as THE BOPPER. It will be in stores October 10th, but you can get yours early by pre-order right here.



Over the past few years, The River City Rebels have become friends and touring partners with nearly every band on our roster. While this is probably going to be our most controversial partnership since Treephort, we've gotten to really know the Rebels over the years and take great pride in welcoming them to the Springman family. Their upcoming full-length will blow your mind, and this acoustic record is a welcome change of pace, more in the singer/songwriter vein, fitting in somewhere between Joe Strummer, Wilco and Bright Eyes -- check out some songs on Dan's MySpace profile.

9/18/2006: Rum Diary

Hello friends who just read The Rum Diary's e-mail announcement! Click here for more information about their upcoming four way split 7" with Facing New York, The Jade Shader and Years Around The Sun. It is almost here!!!

For those of you not on their e-mail list, here is some Rum Diary news direct from that horsey's mouth.

It's true, our drummer moved to New York. It's also true that we took a well deserved break while I moved to San Francisco, worked on some side projects and while we found another place to practice. We are, however, still practicing, writing and recording songs, and releasing records. We will miss Joe with all of our hearts as a friend and a band mate, but we must press on as we have plenty of unfinished business. Here are some fun facts:
--We are writing and recording 4 new songs at the Cotati Sound Machine (now located in San Francisco).
--We plan to start playing live again by the end of this year with the help of a laptop and our friend/genius multi-instrumentalist Jake.

9/08/2006: Jeff Worms leaves Tera Melos

In a myspace.com blog-post, guitarist Jeff Worms has announced his parting ways with Tera Melos. "We are all still friends," said Worms. "The guys made it clear that I could come back whenever (don't hold your breath), which is very sweet of them."

The remaining members will continue touring in support their untitled debut CD, and have some really fucking exciting things coming up that I can't tell you about just yet. There are no plans to actively search for a new guitar player, but the band is open to getting a new member if the chemistry fits.
We've all had a blast hanging out and working with Jeff and wish him the best.

9/07/2006: North VS South

Another new project! We were going to announce it next week, but punknews.org scooped us:



Four way split 7" with brand new exclusive songs from Facing New York, The Jade Shader (members of No Knife and Boilermaker!!!), The Rum Diary, and Years Around the Sun.
Limited pressing of 500, hand-numbered, crazy rainbow wax, no two will look the same. CLICK HERE to pre-order, these will ship out over the last week of Sept and first week of October.
I cream myself every time I'm reminded that this record is coming out.
