Ooh la la! Here’s our second label sampler filled to the brim with delicious sound waves to spoil your delicate ears with. We’ll name it:

Beep! Beep! Back up the Truck
presents

Behold My Puny Bears, Vol. II

This turned out to be a pretty damn special package for a number of reasons. Let us break it down for you.

1. We go: “It’s completely free!” Then you go: “Yeah, what else is new? All your tunes are up as free downloads.” “No son, we’re talking the actual CD here. When you order something in our shop for 10 euro’s or more, we’ll include this label compilation for zero euro’s.” Then you say: “O No, you didn’t!!”. “Well we did. And if you’re broke, or just really cheap, but still want to own pure coolness, you can order the cd separate for 3 euro’s.”

2. Every cover is completely unique. The front and back of the package are actual photographs (containing tasteful male nudity). We made tons of pictures and handmade sets for each album. We could say ‘collect them all’ but that would cost you 500 × 3 euro’s. Ah, what the hell: ‘Collect Them All!!‘

3. The music on this lil’ silver shiny disc turned out to be not too crappy at all! It’s a nice way to get to know our artists (and then some more). Loyal listeners will recognize most of the songs, but there’s some brand new stuff on there too. Check out the playlist:

Never thought these schotel van de dag boys were such nice fellows. The Christmas spirit must’ve melted their inner fury since it was all shits and giggles while they recorded this 4 song Christmas EP solely for you. Because just dropping your tunes on the net and leaving it at that is a little lame they silkscreened 50 handnumbered copies for you to spend that xmas money on. Believe us, your granny is gonna love this one!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

The days are getting shorter, people are getting depressed by lack of daylight. The streets and living rooms are decorated with overdue pine trees and red and green stuff. It’s christmas time again. But what would christmas be without an extensive meal, shared with friends and family?

This christmas, Schotel van de Dag will be serving a delicious christmas dinner. A four course meal filled with happiness, joy, good tidings, wild uncontrolled laughter, reviving dead memories and making good intentions for the new year.

One of these dishes is ready to digest at the coverclub, part of the 2009 Christmas Edition, featuring:

The Gasoline Brothers
Audiotransparent
Moss
Laura Vane & the Vipertones
Schotel van de Dag
Roy Santiago
Little Things That Kill
Monstertux
Pondertone
Silence is Sexy

The 4song E.P. by Schotel van de Dag will hit our store later this month, but first check out this xmass compilation.
