Hi there,

The brilliant Datashock / Time Life collab is in stock now.... and available in our shop.... A few copies of The Datashock vol IV left... be quick....

The long awaited first album from Bubblewrap Hollocaust (Glasgow) is also available. This debut album is a great collection of short punchy songs each dynamic to sustain many repeated listen! The Stooges meet The Fall!!

Samples are available on our myspace page. www.myspace.com/textilerecords

The great Datashock/Time Life Collaboration is at the pressing plant. It should be out in March 09 and will hopefully coincide with Datashock Uk tour. Check their myspace for dates and details. "Alle in einem bus" includes two long tracks, one recorded by the dutch radio station VPRO, the other one was recorded live in Paris during an ali fib night. This release is a limited CD with a great cover silkscreened by johann kauth

You can pre-order it here for a nice price.

Next step for us is the great Scarcity of Tanks album. They recently toured U.S. west coast with a totally crazy line up (featuring members of Cobra Verde, Minutemen, Red Krayola, Text of Light, The Leeches, The Flying Luttenbachers.) More about them soon. If you can't wait visit their blog at http://scarcityoftanks.blogspot.com/

What else... a new collaboration between R. Mc Donald and G. Burt is ready to release. Tom Greenwood (JOMF) is still working on his first solo album for Textile, and Martin Creed too. Coupe Coupe from Paris will join the team later this year, a couple of other bands left it for other pipedreams.

Happy crisis to all
