new neutrals slaps and our own elyse schrock made the vid so you know it’s must see tv

made a lil playlist for Start-track.com feat. a lot of buds from the bay, including blues lawyer, Yea-Ming and The Rumours, Neutrals, various DandyBoy Records alums

sxsw is irredeemably wack but my friend who's a bartender told me he makes like 15k selling lone stars to tech bros every year and i think that's cool

This is it right? No one is ever playing this thing again, right? I mean WOW.

in celebration of the 1 year anniversary of the release of our Dark Entries Records debut, ‘ALL IN GOOD TIME’ (and in observation of @bandcamp friday 😉), we proudly present ‘UNDERSTOOD,’ the 5th and final music video/single directed by our own, elyse schrock. full video link in bio.

“We consider Israel responsible for the situation of extreme deprivation and despair which prevails in #Gaza … which led to today’s tragic events.”

Our response following the news that over 100 people have been killed while waiting to receive food. 👇

There was another large pro-Palestine rally at the Texas Capitol on Sunday. My favorite from the pics I got:

someone just ordered the last 2 copies of our 2nd record! officially out of print as of today lol a repress with our first album on the a side and this on the b (both albums are barely 20mins lol) would be pretty cool imo 😎🤔

writers losing jobs sucks, but the influence p4k held in the music biz was dark. bands rejoice when industry folx want to work w them after a good review, only to be abandoned a year later bc they didn’t reach mac demarco fame. the music equivalent to mad money w jim cramer.

“lo-fi jingle-jangle indie punk with occasional devastating shred factor” will now serve as the one sentence descriptor i provide curious strangers at the dog park. thanks allan xo

Made a playlist of some songs I enjoyed from the last 12-ish months. I tried really hard to avoid just making a playlist of 2023 Trouble In Mind releases.

Anyway! All of these bands are good!
