CHEAP TUNES FROM AFTERNOOON!

Well hang gang just wanted to say I put up an old out of print song called "the American Way" which features lovely vocals by our buddy Tarah Cantrel who I miss and love very much! It was written in Dec of 2004 mostly about the state of our country then, and how we got to have 4 more years of G.W. Bush..

I hope you dig its out print now and was released on THE POP GUN POW cassette!

Ok This will be the last song I post before posting some tunes from our NEW ALBUM very soon! We cant wait to share them with you...

In other news our albums will not be on ITUNES for awhile cause our record label has had some very exciting news and we will be changed distributors because of it.. so our label is selling all the bands mp3s for cheap so you can get A COLLAGE OF IMPRESSIONS for 5 bucks! thats like stealing it or something.. here is the info

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - October 26, 2009
Announcing the Afternoon Records "We're Not On iTunes For A Bit" Sale!

As Afternoon Records grows as a label, the people we work with change and grow as well. Right now, we are in the midst of a major distributor change, which means that our releases will be up and down on most digital retailers for the next couple of weeks. Rather than robbing our amazing fans of the opportunity to buy our MP3s online, we've decided to put all of our MP3 albums on sale on our AR Store.

From now until our records are back up on iTunes, all Afternoon Records MP3 albums will be no more than $4.99 on the AR Store.

AFTERNOON RECORDS!

Ok More fun news soon! I hope the you are enjoying the fall and if you come to my house for Halloween treats you can get CANDY, old Pcc Posters, and maybe a copy of GO GO or Kennedy! happy halloween everyone!

Update 9-14-09

Well it's been awhile since we have had anything worth updating..

but here we go!

1. We have uploaded an unreleased song from the year 2000, called, "PAUL IS DEAD!"

to celebrate the Beatles remasters! Its a little lo-fi rocker from our un-finished unreleased rock opera that had many a reference to the fab four!

2. We are mastering our new album next week and we are excited for everyone to hear it!

3. Christopher the Conquered is releasing his new album soon, and we are all so proud of him and the record, Patrick will be playing solo to open the show up!

Beyond that we have been selling posters at colleges, working on becoming doctors, playing with photoshop and listening to the new Yo La Tengo album!

We hope you are all swell and enjoying the fall!
