 THE WOWZ - LONG GRAIN RIGHTS (REC006)
The WoWz's debut record featuring 12 classic WoWz songs, including "Happy Today," "When I Die," "646," and "Sometimes I Feel Life."

 THE PATHWAYS - BOAT OF CONFIDENCE (REC008)
The debut full length from The Pathways - 13 brilliant songs from the forefathers of Brooklyn's jangle-pop revival. "This really is the sound of a new Pop renaissance... Ignore this record and this band at your peril." - Tangents
 DREAM BITCHES - COKE-AND-SPIRITERS (REC009)
Dream Bitches' sophomore album is packed with snarling pop anthems and hyper-literate acoustic ballads capturing the Bitches at their most vibrant and volatile.

 THE FUGUE - MYSTERIOUS ANIMALS EP (REC010)
The loved and hated 4-song EP from Die Fugue USA. Features artwork by Seripop. "This is dirty, gritty, and raw, everything that punk should be, only elevated and played with intent to blow out every speaker, subwoofer, and amplifier around in the process." - punknews.org
