LAUREL CANYON - Drop Out 7" (colour vinyl)

Limited edition of 200 copies - numbered, hand-screened wraparound, sleeve by Savage Pencil artwork. Individually signed.

Very few copies available.

Highly recommended.

Debut single for NEW label set up by Savage Pencil (art), Al From Hell (printer) and Agitated Records, primarily to release tasty limited 7” records by awesome new musics...

First release is by Pennsylvanian guitar manglers Laurel Canyon, evoking strains of the Stooges via a distinct Pacific Northwest pop filter.

Fluid, Tad, Screaming Trees, Mudhoney etc are easy points of reference but these songs have fire and melody in equal measure and burn their own path, recorded earlier this year with Steve Albini.

Punk rock band Laurel Canyon – Nicholas Gillespie, Serg Cereja, and Dylan Loccarini – formed in 2019 when Nick and Serg met through a mutual friend in their hometown of Allentown, Pennsylvania. Following their first release, “Two Times Emptiness” b/w “Enemy Lines,” in May 2021, Nick and Serg traded in their characteristic jangle for fuzz pedals and established a relationship with veteran producer Bryce Goggin (Pavement, The Lemonheads) at Trout Recording in Brooklyn.

The artist Savage Pencil, who has created artwork for Big Black and Sonic Youth, drew the EP cover. Singles “Daddy’s Honey” and “Eczema” created a buzz online and were featured in Spotify playlists “All New Rock” and “Smells Like Stream Spirit.”

Their debut LP, recorded by Bryce Goggin and Steve Albini, will be released March 31st 2023.
