Today In The Mail: A389 Forever

The other day I got a pretty decent sized package from A389 Records. I pretty much order every record this label puts out. I'm sorta playing catch up though on a few of the older ones (I'm going to have start hunting on ebay for the really early releases I missed). This order though brought me the last piece of my Gluttons collection (for now), 3 Gehenna records (including one split), a 7" for a band called The Love Below (outkast reference?) and the first press of the Integrity - To Die For 10" I had missed with a special bonus inside. I thought the order its self was going to be the special part for me but when I opened it up I noticed my 10" had a 7" slid inside. I was so excited because I had been broke when the pre-order went up and when I finally did get money I had missed the last few copies by an hour or so. Luckily some were put up the A389 webstore a few hours before the next set of pre-orders went up.


Gehenna - Negotium Perambulans In Tenebris (Self Released)
Gehenna/California Love (Red) (Out Of 250) (A389 Records)
Gehenna - Hope Guzzo Bootleg (Marble) (Out Of 250) (A389 Records)


Gluttons - S/T (Clear) (Out Of 150) (A389 Records)
The Love Below - Reproductive Rights (Pink) (Out Of 250) (A389 Records)

Integrity - March Of The Damned (A389 Records)
Integrity - To Die For (First Press) (Blue) (Out Of 500) (A389 Records)

Also in the past few days I got a copy of Bridge Nine's repress of Underdogs - S/T 7". Its a GREAT fucking repress only a few minor changes that were either to fix things wrong with the original press or to put the b9 logo on their (but they still left the new beginning logo in the insert!!!)

Today In The Mail: Panic Day?

Today I got three packages in the mail today. Two held Panic items and one held a bands demo who had perked my intrest by saying they sounded like Panic on b9. The shirt was from Ebay, the two Panic 7"s (and the other 7" were from a b9er) and the tape was from said band, Overlooked. I am now only missing the Back To School Jam cover for the Panic - S/T 7" and tests for both.



Overlooked - 2009 Demo
Panic - S/T (White) (Out Of 200) (Bridge Nine Records)
Panic - Dying For It (Blue/Yellow) (Out Of 400) (Bridge Nine Records)
Empty Promise - S/T (Self Released)

Today In The Mail: In The Last Week(s)? who knows

I've been doing just about nothing so I have no Idea why I have not updated. Whatever, who cares. The first record I got in the last few weeks was Panic - Dying For It on Bridge Nine Records. I've always liked Panic but it seems in the last few months I've had a spurt of interest in collecting them and tracking down different versions of the records. I lucked into this on ebay for cheap, and when I say cheap I mean I won this for under 3 bucks. Must have been my lucky day. I almost missed the auction too but luckily I woke up to an email about it.



Panic - Dying For It (Green) (Out Of 150) (Bridge Nine Records)

The second package I got in the last week was my Six Feet Under Records New Years Sale grabs. All are records I was meaning to buy (The Mongoloids records lower on that list), and I couldn't pass them up for 3-5 bucks a pop. Most of these are decently rare too so it was a pretty good score for around 20 with shipping.



The Mongoloids - Assorted Music (Black/White/Grey) (Out Of 254) (Six Feet Under Records)
The Mongoloids - Time Trials (Mustard Yellow) (Out Of 708) (Six Feet Under Records)
Justice - Live And Learn (Grey) (Out Of 175) (Six Feet Under Records)
Mother Of Mercy - III (Red/Black) (Out Of 325) (Six Feet Under Records)
Dean Derg - ...Raus (White) (Out Of 310) (Six Feet Under Records)

Today In The Mail: Last Week

Being in Chicago this weekend for Burning Fight made this post come a little late. But another post (or posts) will come from it. I left Friday morning so I missed a package from Deathwish Inc Records that came Friday afternoon and on Saturday a package came from Bridge Nine Records. The Deathwish package contained the first End Of A Year offering on Deathwish Inc Records (all versions of course) and an End Of A Year shirt. The other package was my Bridge Nine Mystery Box. In the comments section of the order you were to list your three favorite Bridge Nine bands, I said American Nightmare, Mental And No Warning. In my Mystery Box was two No Warning patches, No Warning Sticker, Bridge Nine Sticker, Bridge Nine Singles Collection Volume 1 CD and the gem in the box was a screened poster. The poster was for a show at CBGB's (Rip) the bands playing were Reach The Sky, Mouthpiece, Bane and American Nightmare.

Today In The Mail: Every Answer

Today was a great day, I woke up and was whisked away to Cracker Barrel for a great breakfast. Then the girlfriend and I went back to her place and cuddled for a hours and hours before we went to the mall and then got a dinner. Perfection fallows us, every day with her is the best day of my life. But I'm missing the true point of this post, the mail. As I was dropped off at my house I found a package waiting for on my bed. It held my first (received) piece of Dead Swans merch. The package also held 4 copies of the new New Found Glory single. The packaging for it is great, and three of them came with posters (with the package also came a cool H2O/Dropkick Murphys tour poster and a Defeater poster). Oh and did I mention I ordered this three days ago.... shipping like that is insane.

Dead Swans Signs To Bridge Nine Records

This is not going to be a thing I do very often, but Dead Swans are one of my favorite bands going right now. Their sound is somewhere between American Nightmare, Right Brigade and The Final Plan and they hail from the United Kingdom. Them signing to Bridge Nine is wonderful it means merch and records actually being available in the United States.
