“Life’s Been Swell…” Now SOLD OUT!

Thanks to everyone who has picked up a copy of this compilation, and for all of the bands involved!

As the final package ships out, the doors to Strabismus Tapes close.

I want to thank everyone who has supported the label – whether it be by checking out a release or being an artist that we were lucky enough to have worked with. Specifically I would like to thank the following:

RJ Myato, Franck from a-m#2 & Elias from Sleep Of Ages, Nikita Fear Konstruktor, Matt/Justin/Rafael of We Were Skeletons, Icons, Dust Cult, The Raytownian(s), R.S.P., Regosphere, Zul Anwar, Clive Henry, Rab’ha, and Demian from Dead Format reviews!

We still have copies of both the a-m#2/Sleep Of Ages Split and Fear Konstruktor’s “Return To Reason” – both of which have dropped down to $3! Anything that is not sold by February 6th will forever collect dust!

THANK YOU ALL, and for now, GOODBYE!

We Were Skeletons!

I’ve been holding off on posting about this because I wasn’t sure how much attention the band wanted to give the release just yet, but seeing as they posted this I think it is safe to announce.

Strabismus Tapes is currently working on a tour only cassette for Lancaster based emotional hardcore  trio We Were Skeletons! This tape will be sold exclusively at shows on their upcoming UK tour, and will be limited to 50.

For tour dates checkout this flyer, to listen to other tracks by We Were Skeletons and view more flyers, check this out.
