Based out of New Brunswick, NJ the power trio of Brick Mower has been a obsession of mine from the first second I heard their incredible “Floors EP” on Stumparumper Records and Viking On Campus. And with each subsequent release and live show since I was chomping at the bit for an opportunity to release some music for them. It is a honor and privilege to be able to be a part of sharing Brick Mower’s rad music with the world. Brick Mower plays a brand of fuzzy guitar indie rock that I can’t get enough of. If you dig catchy indie rock/punk stuff that is like Superchunk, New Sweet Breath, Small and fluf then say hello to your new favorite band.
“Why Are We Doing This?” is limited to 200 copies and is packaged in fold over cover and includes a insert. It is $5 PPD in the US and $7 everywhere else. Order at http://www.roklokrecords.com [www.roklokrecords.com] »
