OK- so here's the scoop-

2007 sucked. We tried and pushed as hard as we can, but the industry was upside down as retailers closed (over 140 FYE stores), radio stopped playing rock music, distributors got their asses handed to them, MTV "officially" became a Soap Opera network and "Pop Music" is back stronger than 1989 Debbie Gibson.

So what do we do? We come back stronger than ever and put out the BADDEST LATIN METAL RECORD OF THE DECADE!! ILL NINO- ENIGMA- COMING OUT THIS WINTER.

Check back THIS WEEK for the new and OFFICIAL release date. Come here for the ONLY official information. Don't listen to anybody else- we are alive and well and more pissed off than ever! CSR will put some Horse Heads in people's beds this year for sure. Support independent music and most of all- "GET HORSED". Check back for weekly contests and special giveaways. 2008 is going be CRAZY

I know you all must be wondering "what the hell is going on at Cement Shoes Records"?? We'll needless to say, it has been a pretty rough few months. The record industry is in the tankers and we had to "weather the storm" and do a little re-structuring to bring you all some new music in 2008. Well the good news is "WE ARE BACK" and ready to kick ass!!! We have some killer music coming out for you guys in 2008, beginning with Ill Nino's new album "Enigma". The album will be in stores VERY soon, probably mid-March. Keep checking back for more details, as we should have an announcement this week sometime. We will also be posting the new video for "Me Gusta" in the next 2 weeks so look out! Glad we are back and we missed all of you!!!

Ill Nino's new album- Enigma will be in stores shortly. We are sorry for the delay, but due to unforeseen circumstances, mainly attributed to the state of the record industry and the recent closing of 140 FYE stores, we had to push the release date again and re-think our marketing strategy to make sure you all can get the record! The good news is that we are nearly there and the band will be beginning their Guerilla Carnival Tour 2008 with Bobaflex and Droid on January 31st in Cleveland, Ohio. Go check them out and show your support. Look for the new release date for Enigma VERY, VERY SOON!!!
