ELK CITY / STEVE RIZZO
Everybody Hurts / Imagine
iTUNES EXCLUSIVE (2 songs)
$0.99 per track

Our first digital split single is a good one. Hell, a great one we dare say. Indie darlings Elk City cover R.E.M.'s "Everybody Hurts" and Steve Rizzo (Kristin Hersh) covers John Lennons classic "Imagine". Both tracks are fantastic. Renee LoBue's vocals on Everybody Hurts are beautiful and heart-breaking, and Sean Eden's guitar work has never sounded better. On "Imagine" Steve Rizzo has created a rich, faithful cover but has made it his own. This exclusive digital split single is only available on iTunes.

a tribute to REPO MAN!
CD-LP
Look for this one sometime in the future!

We've teamed up with our good friend and comic book artist Chris Burns to co-produce a tribute CD to one of our favorite films of all time, REPO MAN - the cult 1984 film written & directed by Alex Cox, produced by Michael Nesmith, and starring Emilio Estevez and Harry Dean Stanton. The original soundtrack celebrated the southern California punk movement of the late 70's/early 80's featuring bands like Black Flag, the Circle Jerks, Suicidal Tendencies, Iggy Pop and others. We'll be tributing this film and soundtrack with some of our favorite bands covering those now-classic punk rock tracks.
