GBL Affiliated Projects Alert
First out the gates is Purity Ring, the project of Corin from GBL, and Megan James, who was in GBL’s first incarnation and whose spirit still lives on in the band. These are synth-warped, minimal, hiphop-inflected pop songs — glowy and irresponsibly hooky. (Tumblr, Facebook, Soundcloud, Myspace)

Alberta Hardcore Comp (Intl Tapes)
Alberta has one of the best DIY/hardcore scenes in Canada, if not the world. It is also essentially unknown to that world, for reasons that are partly due to a lack of touring and recording infrastructure, but are also largely geographical. I could tell you about the weird, harmonious convergence of political punks, hipster kids from the suburbs, and feral children from outlying rural...

At Night, The Sun Comes Out
Dwight Pavlovic of Royal Rhino Flying notoriety wanted to do something a bit cosmic for lady friend Liz Toler. He got her favorite band, our pal Mat Cothran (Coma Cinema / Teen Porn), to write and record an all new jam for her. I remixed it, and Rach from Kiss Kiss Fantastic / Teen Porn did the art for the tape, which looks beautiful and is limited to 20 copies (more info and the tracks over at...

Infinitour Mixtape Volume 1
Calvin from GBL posted this to his facebook and it’s a bit too awesome not to share. Three months into this tour, it’s hard to believe how lucky we are to have hung out with and played with these amazing artists. Here’s what Cal had to say:
I have managed to stay alive and mostly heathy this leg of the journey. There’s not much to complain about,...

The mysterious LAND O’ GOSHEN (http://vimeo.com/landogoshen) made this video for “End of Days”. Jamie Harley discovered it. We like it.
Lawn Knives 7" + Neon Graveyard 12"
So GOBBLE GOBBLE is a bit of a frustrating band — for a number of reasons. One of those is that our only physical releases are out of print. That’s about to change… there are two coming down the pipeline that I’m pretty excited about.
The first is the Lawn Knives 7” (b/w End of Days). It’s on beautiful clear vinyl, and features the astral baby depicted...
Becoming Legion 7" = OOP
Pictured above is Thomas (Jaded Hipster Choir) holding the first numbered copy of the Becoming Legion 7”, put out by Weird Canada and Pop Echo. This dedicated n sensitive homeboy camped out for a couple hours to get his hands on that copy. He’s also planning to drop a choral cover of the song at some point, so keep an eye out.
The release show for the 7-inch happened in Canada...

Take a peek at the list and see when we’re coming to your city. I’ll be updating the list as we book it! We’re doing some...

Prospector's Insomnia: Comp for LivingEars
Prospector’s Insomnia is a compilation of tracks from the past few months that deserve a little extra bit of your attention. They are all already in modest circulation but haven’t yet been identified for the furry little gemstones they are. It’s hard to stare on the internet, but sometimes you need to hold your gaze and come off like a river valley flasher if you are ever going...
GOBBL'd Volume 1 - Remix Tape
This tape collects the first batch of GBL remixes. It is coming out on the wonderful Scotch Tapes. You can download it below, and you’ll be able to buy tapes from Al in July. We’re picking some up from him when we visit his beach mansion in Batchawana Bay, so we should have them in time for the american legs of our tour too.
The art for the tape is a glorious foldout collage by...
HARE KITSCHNA: Mix for FMLY
I would believe only in a god that knows how to dance. ~the homie Nietzsche
Hare Kitschna is the pyramid nipple of the sonically sacred and profane, the Virgin Mary cherry blood, good techno and bad techno having vigorous intercourse in front of their confused parents. It is prurient trash inseparably bound to austere soundart. It is turning off the light in yr bedroom and having yr...
