Slugsalt's ninth release is here, and I'm very proud to be a part of this union. C.H.E.W. -- formerly Chew -- from Chicago and Philly's Penetrode bring you some of their best recorded songs to date. We'll be withholding these tracks from the web until a little later, because another label is working on the 7" version of this release (due sometime this summer). The tape is housed in a full color O-card and comes with a double-sided insert/lyrics sheet.

C.H.E.W. will have tapes on their Midwest tour starting today, and Penetrode's copies will be at all of their local gigs (next one 4/19 with Ultra from Spain @ LAVA).

S-21's "Year Zero" EP is out today, which means we're putting our copies in the webstore! Look for a tour in early March out to OKC and back. N.E.G. hit the road for dates through the Midwest and South, and they have their new cassette with them. Our copies are in the store as well. Here are the rest of their gigs:

1/6 - PITTSBURGH
1/7 - CINCINNATI
1/8 - LEXINGTON
1/9 - NASHVILLE
1/10 - BIRMINGHAM
1/11 - CHILL IN ATLANTA
1/12 - ASHEVILLE
1/13 - GREENSBORO
1/14 - RICHMOND
1/15 - PHILADELPHIA

N.E.G. from Philly just released 4 tracks from their second demo tape. I should have physical copies for sale by the end of the month.

Tests for S-21's 7" have been approved and I expect that the record will be in-hand by the end of the month. Release date TBD, but it will most likely be out in 2017. Catch the band at Be Bad Weekend in Richmond, VA at the end of January. They will most definitely have copies of Year Zero with them!

Hi, and welcome back to the label side of things. I'm currently working on three tapes for three great Philadelphia punk bands: LIP SERVICE, PENETRODE, and GUTS. Will post an update with new distro items and the tapes when they are finished. Links to their music below. Thanks for listening.
