 Blank Dogs
Mike Sniper (aka Blank Dogs) never meant to be one of Brooklyn’s ‘most mysterious musicians’. Things just ended up that way, as the singer/multi-instrumentali
st released a steady stream of limited singles and EPs on such reputable indie labels as Sacred Bones, HoZac and Woodsist. Not to mention’s Sniper’s own Captured Tracks imprint—a carefully-curated roster that’s grown as quickly as Blank Dogs itself, thanks to such… buzz-stirring releases as Dum Dum Girls’ debut EP and recent records by Beach Fossils, Wild Nothing and Minks.

The Soft Moon
Raised under the burning sun of the Mojave desert, Vasquez channels both his punk upbringing and Afro-Cuban heritage to sculpt decidedly dystopian soundscapes for a new generation of torn romantics. It’s a record set somewhere in the near post-apocalypse where technology enchants as much as it destroys.

Apse
Apse (pronounced /‘apps/) is a cadre of ghosts wailing into the cold New England wind. In recent years the group has channeled itself through ATP Recordings, reaching a larger audience so all can immerse themselves in its dark realms. Its sounds are heard on the tribal atmospheric swamp of Spirit, the drug-addled lo-fi montage Eras, or recently on Climb Up’s more rousing gesture toward the light. The group’s live performances – often known for their unmistakable dark intensity and shamanic conjurings – are not to be missed.

I’m personally psyched on this show.  I’m excited to see Apse for the first time in a while with their latest line-up and new songs.  I’m pretty stoked on The Soft Moon album so getting to see them right now is perfect.  And Blank Dogs too!  Psyched. – Rick

Dollar Discs

DOLLAR DISCS! 
($1 CD Bins)
We have too many things for this small shop.  That’s really the only reason we’re doing this.  If we could hold onto back stock and not run out of room as quickly as we tend to then we’d surely hold out on these.  However, in this scenario, you win.  Sure, there is some stuff I am not sure why we have in the first place.

 There are also plenty of gems in here.  
The VSS (Feat. members of Angel Hair, The Red Sparowes, and a few more bands)
CT’s own Biartz (members of Call It Arson and a bunch of other bands in the area)
This band, Medication, is not the one from CT. I actually don’t know anything about this band, but I like the Medication from CT so I thought I’d mention it.
Members of Kungfu Rick went on to form HeWhoCorrupts.
And many more! (Use a big voice when reading that – go back and do it now if you need to.)

We’ve never done $1 CDs before and once these are gone who knows what we’ll do in the future (yes, the future).  Get ’em while they’re here.
