AWESOME!!! I like very little in terms of new hardcore, but I'm a big fan of Refuse/Resist, Powerpoint & Bulldog Courage. I'll be honest and say that
I havent checked out 20 Bulls Each which I should and will.
Awesome to see that new stuff is coming!!

Awesome news for your message board bro's with the signing of REFUSE RESIST and 20 BULLS EACH. Now if they would just play Cleveland. 
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

I have a complaint about the digital download. After you unzip the file the track names are listed as Track 1 and etc. The band name and album name
are there but no track name.

Not that we didn't try, It would have beat the shitty happenings at Bernie's Distillery in Columbus (they let all of the "regulars" in for free and we
got 20 bucks to split between Everybody Out and us.)

Damn. When Thorp makes an announcement they go all out. Some great signings.

thanks, dak.
info like this is always helpful.
to clarify...
- which release?
- do you mean the file names as you see them after unzipping in windows or the ID3tags that display all the info once loaded to a music player?
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Ah, that's not surprising. We didn't rip that ourselves, or else that would have been done!
I'll make those changes sometime next week, pass them on to MerchNow, and also resend you a copy.
