New 7” Album News & Photo Winners!


We are delighted to announce the upcoming This Town Needs Guns 7” release coming on Sargent House. It has two tracks, the last recordings that will have Stu on vocals. We will be releasing it digitally everywhere on October 11, 2011 and will be taking pre-orders for this limited edition 7” vinyl soon! You will be able to download the tracks right away when you pre-order starting on or around October 1st. 

Congratulations go out to the winning photos that made the covers!

We chose two photographs after a few hours of deliberation and decided that Oswaldo Guadarrama and Ousseynou Cissé’s photographs best represented the look we wanted to achieve for this release. The photos struck a chord with us and we definitely are very happy that these lovely gentlemen’s photographs sit well with the overall finished vinyl. We knew as soon as we looked that the images that they were great shots and they were always at the top of the pile from then on.” - TTNG  

And in NEW This Town Needs Guns Album news!!
we are currently planning our next tours and have booked the recording studio. We will be shipping Ed Rose of Black Lodge Recording (Appleseed Cast, Get Up Kids, Motion City Soundtrack, etc.) over to the most United of Kingdoms to help us get these tones down onto magnetic tape. ” - TTNG
