Sometimes I Get Drunk At Night |
when one drink turns fast into five. This website is for discovering new music. If you find a band you really enjoy, go to their show, buy a shirt, or do something to show your support. Bands don't make much money from album sales anyways. However, if you just download their music and that's it, then the band doesn't make anything at all and they probably won't make anymore music for you to listen to. The music on this blog is for promotional uses only. Vist the original SIGD (450+ Artists!) @ http://sometimesigetdrunk.blogspot.com |

Topshelf Comp for Non-twitter users!
Not everyone has/uses a Twitter (including myself), so I figure I would make this available to those that can’t access it and don’t feel like making a Twitter account. There is a shitload of bands on this compilation including some in our family: You’ll Live and Peace Be Still.
If you want to know what you’re in for, here is the track listing. I’m giving you two options to get your hands on this.
Mediafire:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4

Notes TOPSHELF 2012 COMPHEY! I’ve been eagerly anticipating this for a couple months now. Not only are there amazing bands on this FREE compilation, there are a couple of OUR bands on this compilation! We don’t have a nod at the moment for putting these songs out, but hopefully that will get changed soon. Either way, this is great exposure ♥. Hopefully people will like the songs enough to look into who put out the album and then come across our little corner of the interwebs.

This has been on my mind for the past few months, and I feel like it’s time to say/do it. When I first started the label, I was wondering what would happen to this music blog. I didn’t want to end it, but things have certainly slowed down from here. Before going any further, I am not planning on ending the blog. -

Notes SIGD Records!New Look! New News!
Making things look sharper around here on at SIGD Records. Most of what I want is done, but expect little tweaks here and there. Check out the new stuff on the sidebar like the Gallery and stuff. Ok, news time:
1) Peace Be Still love the States! Peace Be Still finished up their first stint in the states a week or so. I was lucky enough to tag along and oversee things/be homeless with them. They are currently in the studio recording two new songs, one of which is going to featured on the Topshelf Records 2012 Sampler!
2) William Bonney preorders will be back up soon! Things I running smoothly with the record. In the next week or two we will open up a bit more of preorders for the album. For those of you that e-mailed me, you will be the first to know the specific date and time. If you would like to know, just throw and e-mail to: info@sigdrecords.com with the heading “William Bonney Boner” or something clever like that.
3) We have our next release lined up for after William Bonney! We will be working with Chalk Talk on the release of their one-sided twelve inch called Bad Influences. I just got ahold of the master audio files the other day, and I am extremely excited for this one. Also, if you are from Europe, make sure to check for tour dates in the near future (August/September) for Chalk Talk and Everyone Everywhere. Hint, hint!
4) We will be moving headquarters! Metro Detroit is nice, but we are moving ourselves and our operations into Ann Arbor, Michigan. I guess that could still be considered metro detroit to some. Speaking of Ann Arbor, congrats to Brave Bird (A² natives) for their recent signing to fellow (better) midwest indie label Count Your Lucky Stars!
5) The Family Might/Badgerhunt split is put on the backburner :( We unfortunately won’t be doing this release with Carucage Records because of band stuff. We hope the best for them, and once they have things figured out hopefully this yet-to-be-released split will see the light of day and get a wax treatment.
6) We have some shirts left from Pouzza! Explore the sidebar to find the shirt (Click “More”), more information can be found there.
I think that’s all for now. Enjoy the lovely summer weather/zombies!

Notes After the Lights by The Saddest Landscape (2012)
Kind of Like: Suis La Lune, Her Breath on Glass, Pianos Become the Teeth
Genres: Screamo, Post-hardcore
Buy: Topshelf Records
Preview:
It’s officially Hopslam season! Which for us Michiganders, means our newsfeed is filled with people taking pictures of their first sips of our beloved Bell’s Brewery beer. It’s only available for a few months of the year, and it is the tastiest, most alcoholic brew you can have. If you have two, then chances are you are legally drunk. So, if you aren’t from Michigan, but you dig Bell’s Brewery and find it in your area, see if that Hopslam is floating around. You can use their Beer Finder thingy to find Bell’s in your area. It’s expensive, but well worth it. It goes down so well because it tastes great, and after a few sips you get that nice warm feeling in your throat like you do when you drink whiskey. But that’s ok, it means your body likes it and wants more. I think.
I haven’t paid too much attention to Topshelf as of late. I’m still waiting on the Prawn LP to be sent out, but aside from that that’s the last thing I was really stoked about. I can’t deny this LP though, it’s brutal in every aspect. Modern screamo is almost to the point of getting tedious with how popular it has become in an underground misunderstood fashion, but this album shows there are still great bands out there that not only have their own voice, but remind you how powerful this genre can be at times with the right mixing and direction. I know I get a lot of UK readers, and I may be late to the punch for this, but check these guys out while they are over there. They got a few dates left. It’s expensive and hard as hell to go over there, so make it worth their while. I’m sure if The Long Haul, Kerouac, Goodtime Boys, or Veils made the trip to the states (especially the east coast) they would get a lot of love.
Thanks to yo-gurt for the heads up on this.
