"Our band listens to anything from American Nightmare to Coldplay to New Found Glory, and everything in between,"says vocalist Matty Arsenault. I grew up listening to R&B and have always wanted to do something like this! We just felt it was the perfect time to try something new and have some fun with it. We're very excited for everyone to hear us spice up some classic R&B hits!" A Loss For Words recorded the 10-song cover album with Chris Curran at Webster Lake Studios in Boston, and reworked classic R&B and Motown songs from the Jackson 5, Four Tops, Marvin Gaye and more. The band has been performing select covers on the road, including their acoustic take on The Temptations 'My Girl." The album version is a pop-punk gem which features additional vocals from Jordan Brown of Set Your Goals, while fellow Boston-ites Dan O'Connor and Alan Day of Four Year Strong make a vocal appearance on the Jackson 5 track.

	NEW!	FLATLINERS / SNIPS from Paper + Plastick BUY 7" • $3.75
	NEW!	HAVE NOTS "Serf City USA" from Paper + Plastick BUY LP • $9.00 "Riddled throughout this snarled-upper lip rock ‘n’ roll effort is a sound that’s likely to make most would-be ska bands nervously upchuck their breakfasts. Upon first inspection, the Have Nots seem to adhere to the traditional boozy pub-rock formula, one that’s cemented in “There’s Gonna Be a Riot,” the first track on Serf City USA. Before long and without warning the record gives way to sonically charged ska-punk brilliancy and that’s a sentiment not to be taken lightly by even the most casual of listeners... If you’re looking for a healthy spark in an otherwise over- saturated genre, then the Have Nots are probably a good choice for your listening ears. Forget about the industry clutter and the many cookie-cutter punk bands that rely on a horn section to fit the bill; the Have Nots actually do the genre some justice and come out sounding fresh and new." - punknews.org

	NEW!	SLACKERS, THE "Lost and Found" from Paper + Plastick LP temporarily out of stock Lost and Found is a compilation of music that The Slackers made from 1998 through to 2007. When the band records, there are typically some tracks that don't make it onto the albums. Sometimes a track just needed some editing, and we didn't have time. A bunch of these tracks had some technical mistakes that had to wait until we had the digital technology to fix them. For whatever reason, many of these songs were forgotten or put aside. That is, until now... The Slackers are a classic American band that is equal parts grit and grace. Their slow rise against the odds is a story in perseverance and a belief in their musical vision, what Vic likes to call, "Jamaican Rock N Roll." While they have been influenced, and even personally taught by Jamaican ska/reggae originators, like the Skatalites and the Upsetters (Original backing band for the Wailers), the band sees its music as an extension of the traditions of the United States. This band is equally appreciative of old blues, country, 60s soul, rock, and Rnb as it is of reggae, rocksteady, dub, and Ska. It is as if the Rolling Stones or the Yardbirds had grown up on Bob Marley as well as Muddy Waters. Smashing the stereotypes of "ska" as happy,uptempo, and shallow music, the Slackers play with an aggressive edge and their songs veer in themes from the personal to the political. They can out jam any hippie band and outwrite most singer songwriters. From their 1996 release, Better Late Than Never through to 2010 with The Great Rocksteady Swindle, they have established themselves as America's premiere interpreters and innovators of Jamaican music and a pretty good rock band to boot. TRACK LISTING: 01) If You See My Baby 02) It Will All Come Back 03) What Went Wrong 04) Tonight 05) Lonely Nights 06) We Can Work It Out 07) Prophet 08) Wasted Days 09) My Way 10) Two Blues 11) Estranged 12) Two Face 13) Cupid 14) Watch This 15) See You In My Dreams 16) Blues (Lost & Found) 17) Area 51 18) Mommy
	NEW!	SPANISH GAMBLE "It's All Coming Down" from Paper + Plastick BUY LP+CD • $10.00 DOWNLOAD from iTunes For fans of: American Steel, Banner Pilot, Street Dogs, Smoke or Fire We’ve all been at the end of our ropes before, that precarious tipping point where you’re not sure whether everything’s going to work itself out, or whether you’re going to end up as a deranged 30-something basement screamer chewing on the business-end of a broken bottle. “It’s All Coming Down” zeroes in on these feelings, a Richter-scale reading on imminent mental collapse. As Spanish Gamble have waged their own wars across the underground over the past few years, they’ve clawed their way up the totem pole from the position of determined underdog to scrappy welterweights. They’ve built a healthy reputation for riling house shows into reckless abandon and will surely be wide-awake, blacked-out, and giving any willing soul a homemade tattoo in your living room long after you’ve passed out. In turn, the music speaks for itself - driving and melodic, rife with compelling leads and behemoth choruses. Each song stands as an anthem unto itself, whether defiant or rallying, hopeful or hopeless.
	NEW!	THE RIOT BEFORE "Rebellion" from Paper + Plastick BUY LP • $9.00 DOWNLOAD from iTunes **NEW PRESSING IN STOCK: TRANSLUCENT ORANGE or BLUE & ORANGE SWIRL! Evolution is a natural process that can neither be forced nor contrived, but can be accellerated by constant pressure and motion. Since their inception a few short years ago, The Riot Before have kept their burners on high, maintaining a perpetual drive that propelled them almost overnight from obscurity to legendary road warrior status. From their humble, guileless beginnings, they’ve rapidly matured into an experienced and irrefutable force. After the virulent success of 2008’s Fists Buried in Pockets, they immediately set to work forging a new record. With the help of Paper + Plastick’s seemingly infinite underworld connections, the planets aligned during a full moon and they found themselves locked away in the ivory tower known as The Magpie Cage alongside fabled production wizard J Robbins (Jawbreaker, Against Me!, The Promise Ring). Together, they cast and fired their finest work to date, a sprawling composite that fuses the band’s driving, melodic anthems with Robbins’ dissonant, angular production. The resulting opus stands as a genre-defying testament to musical progression, as each song draws clear and differing influences while maintaining a cohesive texture throughout the course of the record. “Richmond, Virginia’s the Riot Before have many winning attributes, but perhaps their strongest one lies in their unflinching ability to convey every sound they make straight from the heart. With a slightly folkish edge occassionally sneaking in, the band’s brand of punk is both catchy and raw, sounding like the Gaslight Anthem and Small Brown Bike jamming in a tiny room. Rebellion’s melodies are powerfully moving, and whether the band are throwing everything they have at you (as with the gorgeous harmonies of “Backstage Room”) or showing restraint to help expose the grace and beauty beneath the surface (“What I’ve Missed”), they nail you every time. With all this bolstered by thought-provoking lyrics and their sheer relentless exuberance, the Riot Before really have come up with something special.” - Alternative Press

		TUMBLEDOWN "Tumbledown" from Paper + Plastick BUY LP • $9.00 Under the influence of great American songwriters, countless punk rock shows, pop music and folk music legends, Mike Herrera's Tumbledown was born. Forged from Herrera’s experiences on tour – miles and miles of landscape and the lonely open road, Tumbledown encompasses the love and heartbreak that comes with a life spent on the move, away from home in Bremerton, WA. While the world-traveling musician may be most well known as the dynamic bassist and lead singer of the Left Coast three- piece MxPx, beneath all the tattoos and piercings, the ranting and stage-wrecking, Herrera has long been an acoustic wielding songsmith. His alt/country/poppunk- a-billy solo project Tumbledown is at the root and on the flipside of all that (distinctive) punk rock. “It's all about the songs,” Herrera says. “What it sounds like depends on who you are.” The music carries an old-school country-western swagger, reminiscent of Hank Williams, Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash, with Herrera strumming a big dreadnaught acoustic over a chugging snare drum and standup bass. Guitarist Jack Parker adds to the Americana, with swiftly meandering, mean lead work.

		WE ARE THE UNION "Great Leaps Forward" from Paper + Plastick LP+CD temporarily out of stock DOWNLOAD from iTunes Instead of following typical ska punk conventions, WATU takes a harder-nosed approach to the genre. With influences ranging from Philadelphia/New Jersey favorites Lifetime and Kid Dynamite, and bands like Slapstick and This is a Standoff, they rage with the best of them while still retaining a heightened sense of melody. Their love for fast music, horns and their incredibly short attention spans are a simple explanation for why WATU sound the way they do.
