new Jack single "A Kick A Knife" + new album 3/1

we're thrilled to announce that we're working with Buffalo NY's Jack, on their new record Alchemical Rounds, due out 3/1. the first song off of the record, "A Kick A Knife" premiered today via Stereogum -- and its an absolute do not miss.

James Rettig says: It’s a breathtaking expanse, and Costa’s voice is a fierce weapon that’s both defiant and weary. “There’s this big great feeling/ That there’s more than just accepting,” she sings. “A lie of a life you’re tired of living/ A sad voice in your mind you stop believing.” The song peaks and valleys with a magnificent chugging, like the grinding of an old machine, and whenever it threatens to collapse on its own weight, Costa pulls back just before the breaking point.

Tundrastomper release new tape "For Steffen Only" + share new video

big news from Tundraland -- the shifting quartet has released their newest effort For Steffen Only via cassette and digital. A more experimental release, For Steffen is comprised of outtakes and unused song snippets, blended together with known Tundrastomper melodies and bursts of unmitigated noise. It is truly delightful.

You can pick up a copy here: http://www.sadcact.us/products/623507-tundrastompe...

In addition, Tundrastomper has released a phenomenal video for their song "For Flies Only" off of March's Clean It Up. Entirely created by Saera Kochanski, the video is the perfect accompaniment to the frenetic track, full of color and visual explosions. You can see more of Saera's work at http://wishbonezoe.com/index.html. Additionally, you can hear her music via https://wishbonezoe.bandcamp.com/

bye for now!
