Union town: Blinding Lights 7" out now!!!
we are really happy to bring you this record..
The ‘Blinding Lights’ EP contains three new Union Town songs that capture the band’s shape anno 2010. The songs were written in the course of a year and were tested on the crowd in different variations during live shows. Raw takes and jams were carefully reshaped and re-recorded in cooperation with Mark van der Male, a friend of the band. Enriched with the artwork of Mara Piccione, who also worked on Union Town’s debut album, the EP will be released as Sabotage Records #34 in May 2010. Comes with a free MP3 download.
there will be a small edition with silkscreen covers.. get your copy here
or order the regular copy, wich is also really nice here
union town will tour in may with vicious cycle...

just got the recordings from the upcoming album..sounds great..
will be send to the pressing plant this week..
the cd version will be ready soon..
the vinyl version will be ready for their tour in april...
here is the info:
Polite Sleeper is the new folk punk, experimental side-project from Jason
(guitar) and Tim (drums) of The Yellow Press (Day After). Pretty crazy stuff at times,
but the songs are simple and sweet – all about missing one thing or another, about the
new challenges and new relationships since moving from San Francisco to Brooklyn, NY nearly
two years ago.
More important, PS is a punk band. They’re 100% DIY, choosing to record in living rooms
and kitchens, exclusively. They keep traffic noise and dead notes as reminders of that,
and stay true by playing basements and warehouses, even proper clubs where they don’t
quite belong, but take the chance at meeting like minds anyway. They believe it and you should too.
