5/08/2008: Hey Kepi, how ya doin?

So my plan was to write a big proclamation full of spelling mistakes and plot holes about Kepi's 2 new Cd's and how great they are why you should drop that mouse or newborn and run to your nearest buying facility for em. But this picture already said it for me.


And let us not forget the clusterfuck of good times Kepi will have his hand in this summer on the Asian Man records Tour! Our very own Mitch Clem even drew the poster!

Tomorrow in Sacramento Kepi will wrangle all his pals and play a free show at Cesar Chavez park with Kevin Second to celebrate his new records, and you should totally go! Mike Tahutos is coming!

and be sure not to forget the other members of Kepi the band, and Kepi and Friends, Freak, Dino, Danny, Jazz and Lys, you all make me so proud!

4/07/2008: Mitch Clem presents: Face Palm Records!

Tired of only knowing who two or three of the bands in Nothing Nice To Say's annual "best records of the year" series?

I am fucking stoked beyond comprehension to announce Mitch Clem's new record label, Face Palm Records, that we're gonna be handling the business end for. Don't think of it as a Silver Sprocket subsidiary, he has some amazing projects lined up with some amazing bands that will be top priorities right alongside the Silver Sprocket/Springman releases.

Mitch is doing all the artwork, creative stuff, and everything else. Seriously, we're letting him do whatever he wants. Mitch doesn't work for us, we work for him here.

Two of the most exciting bands out there right now are soon finally joining forces for the label's first release, a split 7" sure to melt your brain. Brickfight (Fort Worth, TX) and Shang-A-Lang (Las Cruces, NM) will each be supplying half a vinyl slab's worth of sheer audio awesome. Expect this out pretty soon, because I'm fairly sure no one's gonna be able to wait.

2/19/2008: Nothing Nice To Say book on Dark Horse Comics!

We get to work with Dark Horse Comics!!!



The official statement from Clem's LiveJournal:
Ladies and gentlemen, as of today, you can now officially expect the long-awaited Nothing Nice to Say book to hit stores around September! The book will be published by none other than indie comic juggernauts Dark Horse Comics (a bit of info I have been keeping secret for so long now it's starting to hurt when I walk).

To answer some anticipated questions:

1) Yes, I still own the comics and the characters and everything. NN2S is not owned by Dark Horse, they're just kind enough to put out the book.

2) If all goes according to plan (and I see no reason why it shouldn't), the book should be available in record stores as well as comic shops and, of course, online on Amazon and stuff.

3) The book will contain just about every NN2S strip from 2005-2006, as well as about fifty pages of bonus comics including my month-long stint writing and illustrating Joe and Monkey at the end of 2004, a good dozen or so guest strips, some original art, and more.

4) Yes, the comics from the book will still be available to read online for free always and forever.

So hooray! Three cheers for Dark Horse for being badass and putting my book out! This is an exciting time for me, guys. This is the kind of thing you go out and celebrate at a fancy steak restaurant. Which I would totally do if I weren't still hopelessly poor. So frozen pizza's gonna have to do for now. Which, let's be fair, is just as good.

1/16/2008: My Stupid Life

Mitch Clem of Nothing Nice To Say fame has launched a brand new web-comic titled My Stupid Life! Picking up where Kittens Rock City Comics left off, this is a hilarious autobiographical comic that you can enjoy even if you aren't up to date on 90's-era pop-punk!

In other Mitch Clem news, we have brand new NN2S patches in the online store, and on Friday will be debuting a brand new shirt design.

11/07/2007: Avast!

I'm Eoin and I'm hijacking this here website for a dearly needed update. We're sorry this hasn't come sooner but Avi was hit by a speeding volcano and can't do it, very sad. Send all flowers, tofu and pipe bombs to 2308 P St, #9, Sacramento California 95816.

In actual nooze, we are completely sold out of Phenomenauts officer jackets in all sizes except for small for the time being. Sorry sport. The back-ordered Mitch Clem shirts will finally arrive sometime this week and there will be a massive mail-order orgy fueled by stir fry and red hot orange juice so you can all finally get the shirts you have waited ever so diligently for. Wednesday nudity will return once we actually find some nudity, our apologies to 13 year olds worldwide.

This won't do [seriously, don't click here]

Howd everyone's Halloween go? Did you go to phenomenauts zombie party? That thing was way rad, there's pictures on the Silver Sprocket myspace which by the way you should add. Send us links to any pictures you took!


HEY! Check this out! Nothing Nice To Carve!

huh? aint that neat? Fuck off I think so.

I'm obviously not on my A game because I got a few swift kicks in the brain at Dannys Secretions lame ass birthday bash (don't wear combat boots if you plan on crowd surfing you cocks) so once I collect a respectable collection of pictures ill give you a review of that gala event.

8/23/2007: Nothing Nice To Say: The Book

Mitch Clem let the cat out of the bag -- Silver Sprocket is publishing a book!



We will try our best to have it ready for the holidays, but it is realistically looking like an early 2008 release. I'll explain when you're older (once we know what's up). And look out for new NN2S shirts and buttons this September!

8/20/2007: It! Has! Begun!

Good-news: New Nothing Nice!


[Click for full-comic]


Bad-news: We will not be distributing Tera Melos' "Drugs To The Dear Youth" CD to stores as originally planned. Sorry about that, it is outside of our control. It might eventually be distributed by Sargent House, the management company the Melos' just joined up with. We still have a few available for mail-order.

And check out Danny Secretion singing with Ashtray!


Come back tomorrow for a major update with headlining tour dates from The Phenomenauts and Big D And The Kids Table!

1/17/2007: Nothing Nice To Say

It brings me great giddy pleasure to welcome MITCH CLEM to the Springman Records family! For those of you leading humorless lives, Clem is the mastermind behind two of my favorite web-comics, Nothing Nice To Say (the original punk-rock web-comic) and San Antonio Rock City.

To kick things off, we have two brand-new vinyl stickers in stock and ready for your car so it can finally get you laid:

First we answer the age old question of "How cool would it be if Raffi all of a sudden started a hard-core punk band?"

Bananarchy sticker - $1.00


Next, the only thing you should ever consider:

WWHRD? (What Would Henry Rollins Do?) - $1.00


Coming next week: Buttons!!!

And after that, some more very rad projects that I can't tell you about just yet.

Incase you are new to all this, here are links to some of my very favorite Nothing Nice To Say comics: Suffer II, Androgyny and Me, wymmyynne and Bananarchy. But you should just read them all.
