Hey y'all. Things are busy as usual around here. Just making a quick news update to welcome The Kickstand Band to the SubSprawl family. They are a great 3 piece band, and we'll be releasing their first full length album in November 2011. Not much other news. Javelins are working on new music, same with The Pop Project. Yay. - Zach C.

Happy 1/11/11! You made it! Our newest release is Phenomenomenons by Love Axe, which is out TODAY.

Love Axe is Chris Hatfield and Heath Johnson, great buds and talented dudes. You might remember them both from Army/Navy (SSM009), or just Chris from Those Transatlantics (SSM015). Phenomenomenons is available on iTunes and Bandcamp.

Pick it up today. They spent years on this thing and you can tell. You won't regret it! - Zach C.

"Totally Awesome (Demo)"
- The Next-Door Neighbors

This demo was recorded in 2004 for the purposes of teaching The Next Door Neighbors all the parts to the songs. I'm playing pretty much everything, except for the synth line, which is Darin. The point was just to get the ideas across, which is why I didn't care that there are some significant drum stumbles. The lyrical concept for this song, about how great it would be to turn into a butterfly, was Darin's idea. When we were "brainstorming" for the lyrics, I typed out notes of our basic idea for the song, as a reference point, not intended to be actual lyrics: "I was a worm, now I'm awesome. Awesome." Somehow, this ended up being the chorus to the song, and somehow it works. After The Next Door Neighbors' demise as a live band, The Pop Project made this song its own, with a few changes. - Dave

"(These) Hands (Will Strangle You)"
- Army / Navy

This track has another of Denis's brilliant song titles. I wrote this when I was feeling fed up with all the bullshit that comes along with being in a band and knowing people in bands and hanging out with bands and listening to bands - you can probably tell. But here I am, still in a band so I guess that tells you something. I still haven't gotten any play because of it, but there are good parts, you know, like spending long hours in the car with the same people and sitting around in half-empty coffeehouses not even being able to smoke cigarettes while listening to some asshole cover Eve6 on an out of tune Peavey Raptor. So yeah, all the right reasons. - Chris
