Very cool , will definately be looking for the cd. Props to Social D for bringing out some cool openers, last time i saw them they introduced me to the swell sounds of Dan Sartain! Looking forward to the stone pony summerstage gig may 14th.........and then walking 2 blocks to Asbury Lanes to see the Queers afterwards !! winning.

A cover of 'Can't Hardly Wait' (Replacements) is now streaming.
My first impression was something like the heart of Joe Strummer. This song, The Light At The End Of The Tunnel is Hell, is my favorite that I've heard. But I only heard 3 songs off Joys of Living 2008-2010 that have videos.

I am really pleased you like it but ... how on earth did you manage to get hold of it already?

i have no idea. me and my friend placed two different pre-orders (individually) a couple weeks ago, and we both received it this week because living in Luxembourg is cool honestly, i don't know why. but the download card (or should i say 'simple piece of paper') doesn't work yet

'The Joys of Living' sounds great too. Love the harmonica. Think I'll have to buy the 7".

How many new songs are on this? I'm pretty sure I have all of their previous EPs. Not a huge fan but I enjoyed them.

Just back from seeing Sharks play a very small hometown gig (at Moo Bar) and a hometown acoustic set for Record Store Day (at Head Records). Amazing stuff. The acoustic set especially showed of how brilliant the songs are.
Photos here and here.

I live in Leamington and was at both the gig and the acoustic session
Really good to actually see a decent band playing here let alone coming from Leamington!
Thought the acoustic set was really good, especially given how they were just squashed in a shop window!!

beautifully designed and produced vinyl; and two great songs as well
don't miss out on this (I managed to get a test press, so I am well pleased) - I think only the red one with the gipsy face is now left
the link you'll need for the shop is: http://www.coffeebreathandheartache.com/products-page/

Got myself both designs, they are really nice designs, can't wait to see them in person
How did you manage to get a test pressing? That's really cool

Coffeebreath & Heartcache are really good, becuase they always sell test press packages, so out of 10 test presses, they sold 5 (each came with the grey and red as well), but they were gone within minutes. I have a test press of 'Show of Hands' as well. They will fund my retirement.
