New Music Video: Xerxes - February

No Sleep Records has signed Drug Church to its roster. The band is made up of End of a Year front-man, Patrick Kindlon as well as Cory Galusha, Chris Villenueve and Nick Cogan. The band’s first release should be out in mid 2012.

Drug Church is the sound of “some college” and a delivery job. It’s what happens when you strip any pretense from music and are left with a room full of dudes with weird bodies and tenuous futures.

Pulling liberally from Seaweed, Quicksand, and Kerosene 454, the band fully embraces its hardcore-dudes-trying-to-play-alt-rock influences.

No heavy trips about how you should live. No white-guy slam poetry about love. Just music you can pushpit and stagedive to so you can forget for a moment that you have eczema and work at Pizza Hut. ACTUAL punk music for ACTUAL disaffected weirdos.

Cory, Chris, Patrick, Nick

No Sleep Records has launched a free Winter 2012 sampler which can be downloaded here.

Tracklisting:

No Sleep Records have welcomed Kansas City band The Casket Lottery into its family. The band has previously released music with Second Nature Recordings and will be releasing an album and a 7” for their No Sleep debut.

This Summer, No Sleep Records is proud to release the yet-to-be-titled fifth full length album from The Casket Lottery.

Whereas Kansas City’s favorite sons are defined by their traditional harmonious and abrasive bombardment of punk and hardcore tenacity, they have now created tracks which are entirely more fleshed out than previous releases. No longer afraid of being limited as a trio, the sails have been cast into the water’s trenches in order to further explore the boundaries of Casket Lottery’s own songs.

Recorded at Black Lodge Recordings with Ed Rose in Eudora, KS during the Fall and Winter of 2011/2012, the band’s latest will be a darker album than anything they’ve recorded in the past. Said direction was hinted at with “Survival is for Cowards” and “The Smoke and Mirrors EP” yet the “weight of the day” theme has been revisited to set the tone of goth punk songs that are as angry and triumphant as ever.

In addition to the new full-length album, No Sleep Records will also be releasing a new 7”-EP from the band, as well as a new solo 7” from Casket Lottery frontman Nathan Ellis,both available this Spring.

A Loss For Words and Such Gold will be releasing a split 7” on November 22nd on No Sleep/Mightier Than Sword Records. The vinyl version of the release will be available in black (100), yellow (450), and maroon marble (450) packaged with 2 limited edition t-shirts.

Such Gold has signed to Razor & Tie Records. The band is already knee-deep in the writing stages of their new album to be produced by Steve Evetts (Saves The Day, Lifetime) and set for release in Spring 2012. The band has previously released EPs on 6131 and Mightier Than Sword Records, and have a split EP with A Loss For Words slated for a late November release on Mightier Than Sword Records & No Sleep Records.

“Razor & Tie is definitely the right fit for Such Gold. They are a label that believes in us, and will support us in whatever we do, which was the main priority for us in making this decision,” says Devon Hubbard, bassist for Such Gold.
