Rough Trade Label Focus
Published 13 June 2018 by DM
Good news! We are Rough Trade’s Label Focus until July 25th, giving you plenty of time to organise your street parties and to grab yourself an armful of shiny shiny vinyl. You want exclusives? You do. You want in store live music extravaganzas? You do.
Snapped Ankles have put their forest rave favourites onto vinyl in the shape of their Four To The Forest Floor 12”. It features brand new track ‘Tailpipe’ alongside hefty remixes by Crooked Man and Danalogue of The Comet Is Coming.
Speaking of The Comet, we’re repressing their (twice) sold out Death to the Planet EP on “Ultra Deep Blue” vinyl. Don’t sleep this time.
You’ll find Warmduscher’s Whale City on gold vinyl with postcards and an exclusive 24-page zine. Count them. You know what to do.
We’re repressing Julia Kent’s out of print Character album. Eyes peeled for more Julia news soon…
You can get your grubbies on the debut LWW album and black vinyl edition of Snapped Ankles’ Violations EP ahead of their official releases.
Throw in various Leaf 20 white vinyl editions which haven’t seen the inside of a record shop before and you’ve got yourself one hell of a Leaf party.
But wait! In store extravaganzas the world over…
