Here’s the deluxe vinyl for I Hate Music: it includes a stencil and a bonus 7” w two non-LP tracks. The A-side of the bonus single is called “White Screen” and features singing by Annie Hayden! Also possibly our fastest song ever. This package is limited; you can order it from Merge now and it will be in indie record stores as well.

After a successful European and American tour, which included a Bolachas Session and some SXSW showscases, our friends Plastic Flowers went back to their Thessaloniki studio to record their debut album, tentatively named Ghosts. The first song to be revealed off the 11-track LP is the synth-heavy pop goodie "Fog Song". I don’t have to do it myself, you can tell they’re going places.
“Ivory Coast”, off Pure Bathing Culture’s selftitled debut EP was one of my favorite songs of 2012. The former Vetiver collaborators will finally be releasing their first LP, Moon Tides next August 20 on one of Bolachas’ favorite labels, Partisan Records (of Deer Tick fame). Can’t wait.

Brand new song & video from Nicola Donà AKA Horrible Present. This man can’t write a bad song and that’s why we’ll be releasing more of his music later in the year on Cakes and Tapes.
