Paint It Black 7" out on Fat August 18th!
We are proud to announce we will be working with the crème de la crème of contemporary American hardcoreâa little band called Paint It Black. After releasing three full length albums, PIB has decided to return to the 7â format, as they explain here:
We feel really fortunate that we’ve been able to release 3 albums that have been both exciting for us, and also well-received by the kids and the press. That being said, we can’t think of a single hardcore punk band that has released more than 3 awesome full-length records, and we’re not nearly arrogant enough to imagine that we’ll be the first band to make that happen. The 7â EP has always been the ideal context for the kind of music we play, and so weâve decided to release music in that format for the foreseeable future. The most exciting thing about this decision is that we donât have to wait so long to release a new record, which lets us be more spontaneous and stay more intimately connected with the kids that support our band. So to sum up, we are stoked, and we hope you are too.
This well-spoken, passionate, technically formidable quartet will be releasing two 7â EPs this summer. The first will come out next week on Bridge Nine, the second, right here on Fat Wreck Chords, August 18th. It will be available on vinyl and as a digital EP. More info coming very soon.
