News!! News!! News!! Breeders - Zen Punk 7"EP just out!

This is the original Breeders, formed in Champaign, IL, in the early-eighties. They released a 7" EP titled "Zen Punk" and an eight song cassette titled "Things Happen". This is a little hidden gem of Midwestern punk. Three songs, remastered for the occasion. A side is an elaborate song between Punk Rock and No Wave, that brings in mind bands like Gang of Four, Contortions, Wire,... On the flip side, two miniatures on the verge of hardcore. Think early Husker Du, Minor Threat and White Cross. Comes with the original artwork and a sticker!

You can listen to one of the songs here: 


400 copies on black vinyl and 50 on green (with some on swirled green).
They can be ordered from Goodwill records



REJECTORS - Thoughts Of War 7"EP is out now!

Seminal hardcore punk from Seattle, Washington, active approx. 1981-1986. The Rejectors released a 9 song 7" called "Thoughts Of War" on Fartz records in '82. Less sludgy than some of their Seattle punk peers, instead providing quick-paced west coast style thrashers with snotty teenage vocals and earnest, often politically-minded lyrics. Remastered for the occasion, the 7" comes with the original 7" artwork and insert, plus a sticker!

You can listen to some of the tracks from the 7" below:





There are 50 copies on magenta (with about 10 on swirled magenta vinyl) and 400 on black. You can order your copy at www.goodwillrecords.net
