A few weeks ago we released our latest slab of wax. It was the second record from Tokyo Electron entitled AZ 238. This one was a co-release with Certified PR records. We only pressed 5o00 of these and we are down to well under 100 left (and I believe certified PR is out or very close to out of them).
As for the future we have some great stuff coming in 2010. In pressing now We have the first full length record from Black Bug. This one is 15 tracks of lo-fi synth trash. First pressing of this LP will be limited to 500 copies.
Also in pressing along with that one is the first 7" from Gape Attack!. This one will be a co-release with Scrot Up. This follow up to the tape on Scrot Up will be limited to 300 copies and wont last long.
Tons of other stuff in the pipeline for 2010, here is a list of what is in our plans.
Mickey 12" EP
Deep Sleep - Live LP
Doctor Scientist - LP
TeePee - tape collection LP
Black Math 7"
Strange Attactor 7"
Tarantismo Summit vol 2 LP
and more!!!!!

MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL reviews - Earthmen and Strangers / Mac Blackout / Poppets
Got the new issue of MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL today. I was really happy with all 3 reviews they put in for the last batch of lp's we put out.
Mac Blackout - The Western Blue LP - The second solo release fr AC BLACKOUT is a less angry, more listener-friendly journey into the music of the FUNCTIONAL BLACKOUTS / DAILY VOID songwriter. There are some BLANKDOGGIN' / REATARD sounds going on in these snippets of brainstorming, but noone came mistake BLACKOUT's brand of on-the-verge crazy. The style ranges poppy to strangely upbeat to weird, noisy, purposefully out-of-tune and back again, but as we've become accustomed to in other projects, the vocals are a reverbed, sinister juxtaposition to any happy here. At times the demented takes you for a loop, but strangely it's extremely accessible. (AL)
Earthmen and Strangers - self titled LP - I love when bands bridge the gap between punk and indie without losing or getting lost in any of the above genre's charm. These Arizona boys come off as a lost treasure on flying nun records whilst taking in some of its neighbor's (RADIO BIRDMAN and the SCIENTISTS) hook-driven pull. I'd almost put my imaginary house on it these boys rock the CLEAN and the VERLAINES every second day whilst blasting the WIPERS in between. Not a single duffer; every track becoming an instant new fad, sounding old in the warmest sort of way, a beautiful tonic to the worst Monday bluesI've ever had. Now I'm off to spread the word: We have found this year's best record. (SD)
Poppets - UTMARKEN 12" - Eight tracks of squeaky, lo-fi new wave-inspired punk rock. It's brief, it's catchy, it's got the hooks, the charm, and the dancefloor-filler appeal. DIGITAL LEATHER without the digital, hints of BOBBY UBANGI with a heavy helping of the nerds-without-diplomas polish of NODZZZ (SD)
Still got copies of all 3 records available. Less then 100 of the first pressing of Earthmen and Strangers left. Still have a handful of mailorder versions of the Mac Blackout and Poppets records left. visit www.fdhmusic.com to order any of these.
