TROUM >> Saiws 7" out now!

Here it is - finally!
E=mc27 ... pic disc by TROUM
$30 each......
Jeeez! That's Expensive? !!! "Bloody Equation price gouging good-for-nothing a**-holes ... etc etc"
Yes --- hands-up in guilt ... it IS expensive BUT I'm still selling at COST (well, I actually LOSE $0.08 per copy to be precise).
The covers cost a FORTUNE to make and ship (plus I got whacked by heavy import duties .... I guess I did my little bit for our national debt crisis...)
Liquid-Gel filled with "sand & sea" filling. Die-cut, printed gatefold.
I certainly know of no other record like this anywhere, it's unique...
179 copies as that's all I could afford to get made!
If you in USA suggest you buy direct from me or if you in Europe suggest you go direct to Drone Records. Aquarius in SF will take a few copies too...



Alan McClelland did an outstanding job on the whole thing -- concept, design and innovation.
The music works PERFECTLY.

Troum SAIWS 7"

Not really announced fully but we're doing a superb 7" pic disc by TROUM called SAIWS and is going to be housed in a sleeve you simply will not believe (printed, die-cut liquid gel pack).
This will be E=mc27 and "is a nautical single"
Designed by Alan McClelland -- this will be a genuinely unique item.
We've never seen anything like this before.
It's expensive as each sleeve cost over $15 EACH plus the pic disc record cost too.
We are making 175 copies only and will be selling at cost.
More info later.

TAMING THE OUTBACK -- CD Out Soon

After a long wait this is almost ready to go --
385 numbered copies is a really REALLY nice thick card LP-style gatefold sleeve with inner sleeve, 2-sided mini-poster and 24-page booklet packed with info and band history etc etc

There is a special boxed-set version of 75 copies containing a copy of the band's debut 1987 7inch plus a load of extras (see the web site for pics).

This is being sold as cheaply as possible and the bloody postage calculator (that just gives me grief) has been "tweaked" to make postage of the standard CD nice and cheap too.
The box set is heavy and ships at the standard LP rate.

Will be released in about 1 weeks from now.
