OUT NOW!
Thank you for liking this page. We don't do a lot of records for being a record label. The primary reason we don't make many records is because it's expensive. If you know a small label that makes money, congratulate them and there's a 100% chance they took some serious risks to get there. Here at Jolly Ronnie Records, we are all about the corporate excess. The executive dining floor of our Denver office puts out a full 7 course meal at lunch every day regardless of if anyone is there to eat it. And that's one example.
We have a record coming out this Friday and the reason we have a record coming out this Friday is because we are huge fans of the band. While it's a new band, it's familiar faces. Spastic Hearts, Jagger Holly, RADD etc. All favorites of the top execs over here. So this new band Post Ramone is 3/4 of RADD or 3/4 of Spastic Hearts and maybe 3/4 of one of the Jagger Holly lineups? I dunno, what am I 23 and me for punk band family trees?
This new Post Ramone record isn't a joke, it's not Ramones covers, it's a fantastic album or original songs by punk rock veterans who write great stuff. We have released digitally a few singles and while I like that people can get a sample, it's a little bit weak in the sense that this album is really a great album. When you have an album that is great from start to finish it's hard to isolate out a few tracks as samples. It's like letting someone read chapter 7 of a book as a teaser. It might give you an idea of the writing style and voice of the book, but it's kind of out of context.
I hope you will buy this record from me or if not me, Mom's Basement or the band directly. We each have 100 of our exclusive color. Ours are yellow playing off the popcorn bucket on the cover. It doesn't come with a download code. Not sure if that's a thing anymore. If you need me to send you a dropbox after you buy it I probably will or I could burn a CD and throw it in. Just tell me. And hopefully the band doesn't get mad if I do that. They seem pretty laid back and I suspect they would be happy someone wants to listen to it in more than one format.
Anyway, thanks for reading this if you did. Please support if you can and buy the record Friday. I will post link to buy etc. I'll throw in some stickers and stuff. Oh and I bought these LP mailers that are total overkill. It's like made to be kicked from my door to yours with no damage. It's gonna be fun. See you Friday.
