@Randall is there any chance this and the newly announced Dumbells would ship at the same time? In other words, should I wait for Pyrex to go up?

    sicboy hopefully so. I'm picking up The Dumbells covers tomorrow and already have the records. The covers for Pyrex are at the plant and they are ready to press but the labels somehow got shipped to a Walgreens in Deer Pointe, MI. The printers told me they would fix it but are now dodging my emails. I'm gonna apply some more pressure today and hopefully they will reprint and ship off to the pressing plant before the end of the week.

      is this going up on the Total Punk site today?
      edit: I see it on Bandcamp, but I don't like supporting them unless I have to....

      Nevermind, I found it on the Total Punk site now!

        First single out today. Preorder up on our site and bandcamp

        sicboy I was a little late getting it up this morning. Had to make breakfast for the kid first. With all this egg talk the obvious choice was an omelette

          OUT TODAY! CHECK OUT THE FULL ALBUM

          I would like a list of all the phrases that begin with "I am" -- this album has a lyric sheet, right?

            He’s a coma, a bed bug, a candyman, the king of frostbite.
            He plays many roles and yes there is a lyric sheet

                samantha

                I noticed this too. Very introspective.

                Was hoping for an “I am the table” but unfortunately no.

                    Randall yes there is a lyric sheet

                    Mine didn't come with the insert 🙁

                        sicboy shut. Okay. I can send you one. dM me

                            @Randall With the demise of Richie Ramones wonderful Strangeworld Records here in Melbourne, any idea who will be stocking Total Punk releases here in Oz?

                              Richie Strangeworld is taking a break. I think he is going 100% online, It's a big downer, one of the best record store I have ever shopped at. Got turned onto some killer music by Melbourne's grumpiest record store guy.
                              Anyway just ordered Heavy Mother and Pyrex lps from Repressed, so all is good with the world.

                              Actually, the world is pretty fucked at the moment.

                              “This just in: Murderous cavemen have been reported to be knuckle-dragging their way through Times Square, frisbee-ing records at unsuspecting tourists. Oh wait, nevermind—that’s just your friendly neighborhood Pyrex, slinging visceral punk songs. This band is unrelenting, delivering hit after hit. Not adhering to any unwritten punk rules, Pyrex paves their own path littered with broken beer bottles and cigarette butts. With Body, Pyrex dropped eight stomp-y, aggressive songs that toe the line between angular post-punk and modern hardcore, which can only be described as psycho music. The group are on their own journey, and continue to get recognition for their individualized approach. Keep it up, lads. Body is an absolute church burner. Either you’re inside praying in the burning church, or you’re outside with Pyrex lighting a cigar with the flames.“

                                16 minutes and change of tri-boro pressure by these NYC mutants, getting more opaque as the years roll on. Relatively well-rendered in sound by any yardstick of something so filthy, it’s a fuckin’ stomper – D-beat bulldozers and urban fatberg scum spills (“protein is all I eat” … I hope these guys don’t still have roommates), vaguely spidery death rock (“Vertebrae”), and a longer trial of the two in closer “Reflex,” nearly tipping the scales, twice as long as anything that came before. How are they not out of breath? How are YOU not?- heathen disco
