today is the big day. all remaining orders will be mailed. again, we're so sorry for the wait.
As Owen mentioned in another thread, your contribution to our label is much appreciated. your money will be directly responsible for a few new projects - a Snailhouse/Anglers Arms split 7", a Wintersleep 7" and (hopefully) Owen Marchildon's new Purple Hill Record.
We're also trying to help a band from Poland called Kristen, who are really amazing and something you should definitely check out. I don't think they have a website.

there are no 'fuck you' here. in fact, there is no distributor here either. that's the problem. I would think that you guys would understand the problem here. We are 4 guys with 40+ hr/wk day jobs. We can only move so fast. If you want the 7" to arrive in one piece, we have to be careful about packaging. If it was as simple as throwing them in some envelopes and putting some stamps on it, it would be done already. I understand that everyone is excited to hear it but come on, we are regular and real people that do this label stuff because we like the music we're involved with. we've never told anybody that we were smooth operators, we've never talked like a bigtime label. we are very small and we've never said anything differently. as for the glitch, we've checked a whole bunch of the records and they all seem fine. there is however a small margin of error from the manufacturer so its possible that a few of them have glitches. as cam said, if you have this problem, email him at cam@escapegoatrecords.com and we'll fix it. generally speaking though, there doesn't seem to be a problem on the ones we've checked. so, again, we're sorry. we are not trying to be assholes. if the amount of time it took us to actually press the record is any indication, this really shouldn't come as that big a surprise. I'm not making excuses, I'm just saying. is this tobias/toby/"smooth operator"? if so do you know who i am? might we have met when we helped a foxy girl move out of her grandma's house?

nah man, the smooth operator is putting out the next 7", the Cedric Metcalf one...
I believe Toby said it'd come out in the early part of the summer, though judging how long YCM took, it might be a little later than that.
