Pirates Press Records

Pirates Press Records Visit us at http://www.piratespressrecords.com That is a very special position to be in, for everyone involved.

PIRATES PRESS RECORDS: The label has always been driven by a love for music and vinyl, and a desire to combine the two, and make records - after making literally millions of records for other people, the Pirates found it a natural progression to put a few out for themselves - highlighting the music, bands, and projects that they as a company choose to support and reinvest their money in! The last

three years have found that hobby turning into a profitable venture, allowing them to help some of their favorite independent bands (both big and small), and get their music out there in truly spectacular ways. The position they are in as a manufacturer allows them to highlight some of the most cutting edge and innovative projects anyone has ever made - before anyone else does - for the bands that they love. The support seen on a retail level, and just in the general support of followers and fans is overwhelming, and continues to fuel that desire to put out more records that they feel can benefit from that Pirates Press touch!

Starving Wolves is excited to announce the release of their fourth and final single, "Nothing More," from their upcoming album, "The Fire, The Wolf, The Fang." This new album will be available this Friday in stores worldwide.

LISTEN TO IT HERE: https://vyd.co/Nothingmore

The single's artwork, crafted by Kayla Nakai (), features a beautifully chaotic design that nods to the aesthetic of vintage exploitation movie posters. Nakai's art masterfully captures the viewer’s imagination, leaving them questioning and intrigued.

David Rodriguez, the band's vocalist, describes the entire album as an emotional rollercoaster, akin to an intense, traumatic thriller movie reminiscent of films by Robert Rodriguez, such as El Mariachi, From Dusk Till Dawn, and Planet Terror. "I wanted 'Nothing More' to draw listeners in, offering a sense of comfort before suddenly tightening its grip, leaving them breathless," he explains. The music complements the art by shaking things up, delivering unexpected twists, and intensifying the experience, while the lyrics drive the impact deeper, like a soothing spike right into the mind.

The lyrics cut directly to the core of the art:
"Raised in Fear, Bathed in Blood
Crucified, we are Reborn
Nothing is Nothing more"

Artist Spotlight: Kayla Nakai

"Yá'át'ééh, I'm Kayla Nakai. I'm a Diné freelance artist from Salt Lake City. Born in Shiprock, NM, I grew up between the reservation and northern Utah. I am Bitter Water, born for the Water's Edge People; a descendant of the Salt Water and Coyote Pass clans. Most of my life has been devoted to creation, whether as a baker or an art and music enthusiast. Painting is my refuge, a way to decompress from life's stresses and reset myself. I strive to live positively despite any hurdles and hope to inspire others to embrace their creative potential."

This gorgeous Bleach Marble Vinyl re-press of the 2001 debut LP by Lars Frederiksen & The Bastards is available NOW in the Pirates Press Records webstore!

Get your copy: https://piratespressrecords.com/bastards-st-rp

The 2001 self-titled debut album by Lars Frederiksen and the Bastards is a modern punk rock classic.

This extraordinarily personal album features autobiographical songs about growing up in Campbell, CA, co-written by the legendary singer & guitarist and his Rancid bandmate Tim Timebomb, alongside covers of “To Have and To Have Not” by Billy Bragg and “Leavin’ Here,” originally recorded by Eddie Holland, but inspired by Official Motörhead's version.

This album has proved to be a perennial favorite, so the demand to keep it in print is always high, and PPR is thrilled to present this latest pressing on gorgeous 12” Bleach Marble Vinyl, available everywhere now!
