Almost a year since it was recorded the second Hipshakes LP, "Sounds We Found" is out now on cassette.

Order it from us or from http://www.scotchtapes.ca/

When Andrew's back from the States over the festive period, look out for some shows. Me and Bruce and my brother (of Midnight Kicks fame) will also be playing some shows when Andrews not around, as we have for a while now...

Hey there,

The kind man at Tic Tac Totally allows you to buy a limited white version of our new split single with Cococoma right now, before its released. Thats correct, pre-order now!

The Hipshakes debut album "Shake Their Hips" is out on February 6th on Slovenly Records!

It has been described as "awesome....blown out - messed up - halfway competent.... perfect" by fellow hitmakers Cococoma; "most overrated record in years - poor songwriting - horrible sound - generic & boring" by Belgian man Luke Batarang; "the best punk rock record EVER." by DJ and international tastemaker Bazooka Joe.

Check out http://www.victimoftime.com/ for a feature and come to our launch parties!
