Born Against/Screeching Weasel Split OUT NOW!




The split 7" with Get Rad is finallydone! In the grand tradition of unnecessary punk rock vinyl releases, each band covers two of the other's songs. Limited to 300 blue vinyl (Get Rad edition) and 300 clear vinyl (Call Me Lightning edition). You can order it here or get it at a show, I guess. Thanks to Matt at Scenester Credentials for his faith and patience.

Knock knock: WAAAAZZUP?!!!

We have a new bass player!! His name is Kris Maedke-Russell and he looks like a lion and that is all you need to know for now. Welcome aboard the S.S. Shit Eater, Kris!! We will start playing with the new line-up at the end of February and will record our third album some time this Spring. Slam dunk!!

Howl Street Recordings open for BIZ!!!!



Did you know that our very own Shane Hochstetler is a bona fide top dog of a recording engineer? It's totally fucking true! He's been recording for years out of his house--we tracked a lot of Soft Skeletons there--and now he has opened the doors to his very own studio right here in the lovely Bayview neighborhood of Milwaukee, WI. HOWL STREET RECORDINGS is the name, and it features a great live room, digital and analog tracking capabilities, and very reasonable ratez for frugal punkz. Check out his site for more technical info and his myspace for samples and friendage. And if you record with him, make sure to give him a size L black T-shirt . No matter how shitty your band is, he'll wear the shirt. The man loves black T-shirts.
