Alpha

THE OUTLAW LOVERS have finished recording, mixing & mastering their second full length. We will be releasing it this summer, as soon as the legal matters & artwork are all sealed up. Brothers & sister, this 12 inch slab of rocknroll will slay you. Elements of Dylan, The Stones, Webb Wilder, The Clash and The Heartbreakers (both Petty's & Thunders's). This LP's first run will be a pressing of 500. Included with the LP is a free download for the full album, so you tech-savvy people out there can have it on your ipods. For those of you without a turntable, it will be available on a multitude of internet places. No preorders will be taken for the LP, but we will have a bunch of ways to get a hold of one when (not if) you want to lay down a stack of dead presidents for it. Click on the band's name to hear a few tracks via myspace. Get into it.

Nashvillians should make it out to The Springwater tonight. Our acid rocker pals in MAJIK PLANTS are playing a show with local shoegazers HOLLOW OX.

Nashville's latest next-big-thing, CHEAP TIME will be hitting the road in three weeks. Catch them in a town near you & pick up their new LP on In The Red. Rumor has it that if they sell enough copies of their first full length, they get to do a gatefold for the second one. And who doesn't love gatefolds? Here's where you can catch them...
