It’s been in the works for a while, but we are excited to announce that we are releasing both Hawkboy EPs, S/T and King Folly, on vinyl together. Hawkboy was formed sometime in the year 2009 by Cody Bonnette and Aaron Lunsford. After their band As Cities Burn called it quits, they began writing songs together in Nashville. This was followed by a series of unfortunate events that caused them to go underground until last year, when they surfaced, released two EPs, and toured around the country.

Side A will feature S/T with the bonus track Irate Blues and Side B will feature King Folly. Front side of the jacket will have the S/T artwork and the back side will have the King Folly art. This is a limited pressing of 300 copies over two colors, Solid Green and Clear Gold w/ Black Swirl.

Preorders will launch in early February and the LP will drop in early March. Stay tuned for more details on ordering information. In the mean time you can download S/T for free and stream all of King Folly.

Have the Deadhorse / Half Hearted Hero split seven inches in hand and will be shipping them today and tomorrow. The red/orange variant came out yellow and the blue variant came out gray. So goes the art of pressing records. You’ll be geting a shipping confirmation email with tracking info shortly.

Thanks for making 2011 the best year yet in our life as a label. Your support means the world.
