Armada are starting this Friday off right - with a new tune in “Bullet Through The Heart”
The song comes from the band’s new album, “Tales of Treason,” which is NOW AVAILABLE in our webstore! (https://piratespressrecords.com/armada-tales-of-treason)
You can also stream “Bullet Through The Heart” on your favorite streaming platform (https://sndo.ffm.to/5yovov6)
Finally, pick up a “São Paulo City” picture flexi FOR FREE with any purchase in our webstore!
The band gives context about the song:
“Bullet Through The Heart,” the new single from Armada, recalls Brazil’s Military Dictatorship
“How can we explain a little over twenty years of military dictatorship to a gringo?” asks Armada’s lead singer, Henrike Baliú. “How can you explain two decades of oppression in a punk rock song that lasts less than three minutes?”
The song conveys the feelings that hung in the air during Brazil’s right-wing dictatorship using the vocalist’s childhood experience as a backdrop. “I shared a little of my story as a child in the late 1970s & early 80s, at the end of the dictatorship, in Rio de Janeiro, where I was born,” reveals Henrike. “From the bedroom window of my grandmother’s apartment, I would look at Christ the Redeemer, the famous monument that watches over the city. From there, I tried to summarize the horrors that Brazil went through. It’s also a lyric about the loss of faith, something very personal for me. That’s why I love composing for Armada; I can pour my soul and heart into the lyrics.”

Happy Monday and we've got a huge surprise to start your week off right!
Brazilian streetpunk legends BLIND PIGS have been a part of the Pirates Press Records family for a number of years now but throughout that time, there's been a missing piece from their discography that we haven't had a chance to offer to fans around the world.
Well, that's finally changed! Yes, the band's iconic self-titled album is *finally* on vinyl after years of being out of print. Plus, for the first time ever, this album is pressed on 12" vinyl on a limited edition "Sunspot" marble vinyl.
We've also got two shirts up for order as well which are both printed on Next Level #3600 black shirts.
Pick it up here: https://piratespressrecords.com/blind-pigs-lp
A little fun Pirates Press Records trivia: THE RATCHETS are a part of the first official PPR release when we put together six split 7" to debut the label to the world.
On March 15th, The Ratchets are kicking off their twenty year anniversary as a band with “Street Manners”, the lead-off track of a multi-year schedule of new non-album singles. Angry, smart, with acute pop arrangements and sensibilities, “Street Manners” transforms working-class frustrations into galvanizing rock & roll; both broad and sincere, with unforgettable choruses and chants, the track sneers at consumerism, advertising and the moneyed class. “Just watch the kids, they always get it right.”
The band will also be dropping a self-produced video on the same date.
To make sure you're listening when it comes out, pre-save the song now: https://vyd.co/Streetmanners
