My apologies for my sparse posts over the last few weeks… Between the record label, the full time day job, and the getting back in action my spare time for writing has definitely been diminished (pun fully intended). That said, there is a shit-load on the go for Diminished Fifth Records so as I say: “It is better to be busy, then bored…”
To begin I’m very proud to say the 2nd Quarter was by far our best quarter ever, with the release of Iron Giant - Creator of Scars and Gallactus - Nine Mile Woods and being in full force at the Maritime Tattoo Festival Diminished Fifth Records has spread more loudness around the east coast and beyond than ever before. As we are now entering the 3rd Quarter we look forward to spreading our noise even farther than before. Thanks to teaming up with Code 7 Distribution in the United Kingdom our two newest releases and future albums will be available all over the UK and in Ireland both in physical retail and online stores. We’ve also been lucky enough to get some support from the fine folks across the boarder at StonerRock.com. So by the end of August our newest products will be more readily available for our friends in the US, the UK and Ireland.
In other exciting news, Diminished Fifth Records has announced that we have begun accepting submissions for the latest installment of ‘The Music of Artisanship & War’ series. With a planned release date of late September/October 2008 Diminished Fifth will once again show the region, the county and beyond that the East Coast has more to offer the music community than Fiddles, Traditional Celtic Music, and Indie Rock! To date I am pleased to say we are over 35 submissions for this upcoming compilation so it is safe to safe that it will, not only be, a much broader range of music but an even higher caliber of bands appearing on Volume II.
Submissions to appear on Volume II are open through the end of July and the application form can be found HERE
Lastly, I’m pleased to say that our online magazine, Horns High has finally re-launched with a slew of improvements already and many more to come. We do apologize for any inconvenience if browsing the site using Internet Explorer as there are still some kinks to be worked out. But for the Firefox, Safari or other crowd it should be working just great!
