Clown Sound 7" Series / Landlord-Blind Hand
Posted on: Fri, Dec 23rd 2011, 18:10

Record 4 songs with Bloomington,IN's great Landlord while they were in their Pedro stop on their recent tour. Shit went great! So good, in fact, that the idea was born for the Clown Sound limited 7" series. More details to come later but the cliff notes are basically: 1) Very limited vinyl (I'm thinking 300 and that's it) 2) 4 songs and 3) Nice artwork and photos. Bands committed so far are Landlord, Pangea, Audacity, Lenguas Largas, Treasure Fleet, and Underground Railroad to Candyland. We're excited!

Toys That Kill vocal tracking for new album!
Posted on: Sun, Sep 11th 2011, 19:07


We're super happy with sounds we're getting for this new TTK shit!! Totally loose schedule so we don't know when it will come out* but we're thinking just a few months since everything's going our way.

*it doesn't take more than 1/2 a second more to type "come out" or even "be released" rather than "drop". Seriously! Can we drop it?! Get it?

You might already know who Baby J is from her other two bands, CAN OF BEANS and STONED AT HEART. Well, now she has a solo 7-inch that is finally ready for the masses. This recording was attempted a few times and then Todd Congelliere (F.Y.P, Toys That Kill, Stoned At Heart, Underground Railroad To Candyland, Recess Records, Clown Sound Studio) finally got the chance to work his producer magic. After listening to the six songs the first thing I thought was, "Wow, I bet bands are going to be covering these songs for a long time." It's one of those timeless records that have what Duane Peters calls, "simplexity?"

The Underground Railroad to Candyland-Knows Your Sins
Posted on: Mon, May 2nd 2011, 22:58

The Underground Railroad to Candyland-Knows Your Sins LP BUY The Underground Railroad to Candyland-Knows Your Sins CD BUY When Todd and I were kids I remember going to his (parents) house and he gave me the new F.Y.P full length CD called “Dance My Dunce”. Without thinking I said, “Cool, is it on a real label or is it on your thing?” Todd kinda smiled and said, “Yeah, it’s on Recess.” Needless to say, Todd asked me to leave and walked me to my car. I was stoked to hear the new F.Y.P so while we were still saying our good byes I popped it in my CD player and cranked it up to hear, “SHUT YOUR FUCKIN’…” Todd put his hands up, as if to block the sound from going to his house and said laughingly, “Turn it down, my parents haven’t heard it yet!” It was probably the first time I had heard Todd say the “F” word too (he used to say “flippin” instead). Listening to the record on the drive home that day I realized, Todd is in a real band… This is fuckin good punk rock, dude! So here we are years later and I’m working at Recess Records when Todd tells me, “Just got the mastered Underground today, I’m sending you a MP3 right now.” Awesome! I worked the rest of the day, mailing records and shirts around the world. I get home and download the new stuff and holy shit, I’m blow away again (Cheesy but true)! I texted Todd, “It’s not a record, it’s a movement! Dude, REALLY GOOD! I totally get it, REALLY GOOD!” What I meant by, “I totally get it” is, it doesn’t sound like anything I’ve heard before… musically or recording style. Originally risky and thoughtfully crafted music made to be listened to AND I got to sing backups on a song! Look at me, mom, I’m on a hit record! I wonder if Todd is going to let his parents hear this one. BUY OR DIE!--==HALBADAL==-- First 100 vinyl orders get a poster and GREEN vinyl that's only available through Recess or,if still available!, one of the record release shows (April 30 @ Bar Pink-San Diego or May 7 @ Pherespace-LA).

URTC-My Numer's on the Stall Preview
Posted on: Thu, Mar 31st 2011, 21:48

Scene Point Blank clocks in with their Underground Railroad to Candyland exclusive stream of "My Number's on the Stall" from the upcoming Knows Your Sins album that was recorded at Clown Sound. Due out 4/26

Todd took time from his busy schedule to put together a Tour Awards column for us, from his most recent Toys That Kill tour.

Best Sound Guy CAMERON AT SOUTHGATE HOUSE - NEWPORT, KY Boy did I mess this one up! We showed up to perhaps the most interesting, and quite scenic, punk club: The Southgate House, which I hear has enjoyed a notable past—including visits by future presidents and some other bozos. The King Shit, Richard Southgate, was known for lubing up even the most noble soldiers with a debaucheryfest the night before they went to war. One cold December night in 1835 he hosted 50 of Captain Sherman's best men right before they fought for and won Texas' independence. Hence the slogan: "Don't Mess With Sherman's Boys." John Dillinger even had the patience to sit through a 12-hour photo shoot to create the famous silhouette that you see to this day. Locals claim to have heard them upset about the catering and barking about “art of the future” or something close to that. Read Full Story

My 3rd guest slot on The Watt From Pedro Show. Only this time recorded in Clown Sound due to Brother Matt's under the weatherness. Get well soon. This time struck a glory nerve to be Mike Watt's Ed McMahon. Or maybe Barney Fife. Ok Ok, Balki Bartokomous. Regardless, it was fun!

PS Go to one of these shows! Mike Watt and The Missingmen tour
