After more than two decades, There Were Wires return with Vessel. A record that feels immediate and fully realized, carrying forward their foundation of dissonant, emotionally charged songwriting with renewed clarity and intent. From their genesis in Boston as a brash & chaotic hardcore punk band, TWW has morphed into a different beast - older, wiser, and heavier than ever before.

While their self-titled album ran almost entirely on pure adrenaline and shirt-grabbing emotion, and Somnambulists took risks and hinted at musical growth, Vessel sees the band ignoring the strictures of genre, and producing their most creative and heartfelt songs to date. Through time, trust, and life experience, There Were Wires have created their most immersive and fully realized work.

Self-recorded by the band, mixed by Kurt Ballou, and mastered by Brad Boatright, Vessel captures the band at full intensity, direct and unguarded.

“I’ve been listening to The Saddest Landscape for a long time, they are a unique and completely legendary band in the scene. When I was growing up in Memphis, the bands I watched at house shows were referencing TSL albums. I remember listening to You Will Not Survive and hearing a familiar beautiful voice singing among the screaming, so I looked in the liner notes and saw it was Laura Stevenson doing guest vocals. I was playing shows with a bunch of dudes in heavy bands, I really connected to the music but I hadn’t yet seen a lot of examples of someone with my voice integrated into that style.

I was so excited to see this aggressive band collaborating with someone with such a different sound, it set a precedent for me. When the band reached out I was so excited to be on the song, it felt very cyclical. I also felt very encouraged by them. I’ve definitely felt that there are certain qualities of performance that people expect from me as a musician, but Andy and I talked before recording about exploring a more aggressive vocal approach and they were really affirming.

To me one of the most exciting things about making music is forming a community of artists to share with. Getting to collaborate with artists who make music different from my own reveals new dimensions I might not have discovered otherwise. It’s such an honor to have had this experience and to be part of a TSL song.” - Julien Baker

After nearly two decades, PIEBALD return with Tales For The Rages. Featuring 13 tracks of emo x indie-rock greatness, written and recorded between 2019–2025 after the band's 2016 reunion sparked a steady flood of riffs, melodies, and lyrics that refused to fade.

The album captures Piebald’s signature mix of melody, humor, and emotional candor, with reflections on the strange modern world. "Tales For The Rages" was tracked by longtime collaborator Doug Batchelder, mixed by Jay Maas (Title Fight, Citizen), and mastered by Jack Shirley (Joyce Manor).

On the new single: “Even when we are in our own homes, in the comfort of our supposedly personal surroundings, we are being fed propaganda to buy products and ideas that we are told will bring us happiness or freedom. We don’t buy it!” - Travis Shettel

“This marks the first death that appears on the record. It touches on how sometimes during tragedy, this almost dissociative feeling takes over, where one just sort of watches those around them and tries to figure out how to help, kind of floating through and trying to find purpose with what is left. Also, Daniel finally gets a proper guitar solo; he should do more.” - Andy Maddox / The Saddest Landscape

PRE-ORDER: Free Stickers with Every Order: A History of Hardcore Stickers Deluxe Hardcover Book now!

Free Stickers with Every Order: A History of Hardcore Stickers is the first book dedicated entirely to the visual and cultural legacy of hardcore punk stickers. Spanning North America from the early 1980s to 2024, the book documents a fleeting and affordable medium that helped define the DIY ethos of the scene. Stickers were cheap to produce and easy to distribute. Their immediacy made them powerful tools of promotion, protest, identity, and community. Pasted on lampposts, venue walls, record bins, and street signs, they carried hardcore’s values far beyond the shows themselves.

Collected over decades by author Thomas Rackow, this deluxe hardcover pairs full-color archival material with firsthand interviews from across the hardcore scene. Featuring voices from 7 Seconds, Quicksand, Earth Crisis, Have Heart, American Nightmare, Bane, Integrity, Agnostic Front, and more. The book preserves a vital but previously undocumented part of hardcore history.

Rather than aiming for encyclopedic completeness, Free Stickers with Every Order presents a carefully edited archive. Many sticker artifacts no longer exist, and their absence shapes the scope of the book. The result is a focused and honest time capsule of hardcore’s visual language, values, and community, told by the people who lived it.

First Edition limited to 1,000 copies
