atomic beat records - the sweetest indiepop!

>> 24 May 2010

The Garlands/Sugarplums split 7" is now sold out from us. Sorry! Some of the distros may still have copies of it though, so head to our shop for some links. It’s been an absolute privilege for us to have been able to release a 7" by Roger Gunnarsson and the Garlands. Roger has been one of my all-time favourite indiepop heroes. He’s an absolute legend and his songs make the hearts of indiepop kids around the world beat fast. We were so honoured and thrilled that he agreed to write those songs for ABR0004.

The Sugarplums are like one of these lovely secret gems waiting to be discovered. They are absolutely wonderful and we are totally love them. Look at Matt’s fab sleeve cover - it has Blueboy written all over it! We are so proud of those two bands that I can’t really describe how it feels. Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

Many thanks for the continuous support [Christos]

ABR004! Um, yeah. Hello! So, a few months after our last post on here, we are proud to announce that the next Atomic Beat Records single is out. It's the Garlands' and the Sugarplums first ever release on vinyl so it's pretty exciting. And they adore each other too which is cute. Woohoo! We're really sorry it took soooo long. But we love it and we hope you'll love it too and that it makes your 2010 a happier place. Please visit our shop!

Also, in other news, the Pocketbooks single (ABR002) is now completely sold out (but you should go buy their album, if you haven't already got it) and there are only very few copies left of our beloved very first release, Pete Green's Everything I Do Is Gonna Be Sparkly.

ABR004! Our next seven-inch single is being recorded as we speak and it's going to be another split: this time it's shared by The Garlands (the amazing new band of Swedish indiepop legend Roger Gunnarsson, formerly of Nixon/Free Loan Investments, etc.) and The Sugarplums (a brilliant new band from Baltimore, MD). On a scale of 1 to 'Eeeee!' this is likely to be the best thing ever. We'll write with more details soon about the release date and so on.

The split 7" single with The Pains of Being Pure at Heart and The Parallelograms is sold out from us but you can still get it at various distros around the world. This way please... ABR001 and ABR002 are selling fast as well but you can still buy them from our shop.

There is an ace interview with Pete Green on indie-mp3 today. It even ends with a haiku. Don't miss it.

Only 5 copies of the Pains/Parallelograms split 7" left at ABR HQ! There will be some with the distros in the next couple of weeks but if you'd like a copy, please order as soon as you can because they're going waaaay fast.
