DEFEKTORS - Torn to Peices/No to the Nite 7"
526 pressed on black
release date: September 27, 2008

Simultaneously released with 'Secret Trials/Doomsday Girl' double A-side 7" on Nominal records.


'Brief two-songer from one of the brighter lights of the Vancouver now-sound scene. 'No to the Nite' is your textbook post-punk groover executed to perfection. Rhythm sections bites down hard on the beat,guitar player fills in the gaps with no-frills strum-und-pick,straightforward vocals and some call and response refrain, with punctuation provided by a brief, yet exciting, kicking of the bass into overdrive towards the end. Fantastic. 'Torn to Pieces' carries more emotional heft, lyrically and musically, but isn't quite as enervating.Sounds like a less dour Warsaw. Still, they invest some warmth into a genre that can be played too icy in lesser hands. I'd like to see these guys and White Lung on a double-bill someday. Scum stats: 526 on black vinyl, with wonderful design from the sleeves to the labels to the insert picturing what looks like the Defektors playing to a crowd of two in a deserted bar.'(RK)

white lung - repress

WHITE LUNG - Local Garbage 7"
500 pressed - 100 on white- 400 on black
September 2007.
Repress - February 2009 - 300 on black with red covers

Listen: Local Garbage MP3


"White Lung smack us upside the heard with their debut EP, and leave us dizzy with their post-punk snarl. Singer Mish's sexy growl conjures up a young Jade Blade or Penelope Houston, while guitarist Natasha slices and chops her way through tracks like "Amy White Out". Bassist Grady and Drummer Anne-Marie (also of the Riff Randells) lock in an airtight rhythm strike that makes listeners want to dance, particularly on the cut "Breaking Boxes". Think of a perfect blend between Mika Miko and the Bags. These gals have hit the ground running and definitely impress."

THE BLOGGERS - s/t CD
200 made with silkscreened covers
March 2007

Listen: National Pastime MP3


"...this Vancouver four-piece are truly one-of-a-kind. Playing straightforward rock’n’roll with Malkmus-like vocals through a lo-fi noise rock lens, the Bloggers’ self-titled debut demonstrates their ability to go in any direction without sacrificing their identity."

fun 100 / paper lanterns

FUN 100/Paper Lanterns - split 7"
490 on pink - 10 on light pink(sold out)
August 2006

Listen: Fun 100 - Gimme The Chiefs MP3
Paper Lanterns - B-Line MP3


"In 'Pull the Goalie,' Fun 100 sings one of the catchiest choruses in recent memory...This band understands how to write and perform infectious, ecstatically fun, sugary-pop songs, and it clearly has a blast throughout the process. The band probably would shrug off any dissection of its silly-pop songs; however, the syncopation of the chorus in 'Pull the Goalie' and the subtle vocal rests and percussion fills in 'Gimme the Chiefs' are brilliant touches. Fun 100's not only a group of entertainers, but a group of artists."
