Concert Review: The Queers
The Queers have seemingly been around forever. They may well forever be the most juvenilely offensive bands in the punk rock scene. All of this is intentional though, and, after several times hearing the band, they almost become charming in an innocent sort of way.
This sounds pretty strange, but that’s kind of who the Queers are. They come from an era of music when the easiest way to get attention was to be as abrasive as possible. Of course, the Queers were never really about garnering attention (for the sake of anything anyway), they just happen to be abrasive in general, and, if it happens to get them noticed, that is great.

Off our upcoming Asian Man Records split with Hard Girls! It’s coming out really soon! The artwork is basically done. Can you believe it?! This was recorded a year ago! That’s a long time! We have another song on this and there will be 2 awesome Hard Girls songs on there too. They are really good, I promise. I’ve been listening to them for 6 months.If you live in NYC, come out tonight to see us play TONIGHT at the Silent Barn with Big Soda, Lenin/McCarthy, Chewing on Tinfoil and Let Me Crazy!

SPRAYNARD joins Asian Man Records!
We would like to introduce a new band to the asian man family and that band is SPRAYNARD from West Chester, PA.. Spraynard started in the summer of 2008 when three friends (Patrick Graham, Patrick Ware, and Mark Dickinson) felt the need for a resurgence of DIY music in their hometown. They combine passionate & urgent vocals with infectious pop punk in the vein of PLOW UNITED and OSKER. They are currently working on their new full length to be titled “funtitled”. They have a released a slew of 7 inches and an LP on Runner Up Records called “Cut and Paste”. You can download that record at http://www.ifyoumakeit.com/category/albums/3/
KEPI Valentine Card + CD →
asianmanrecords.com
The Annual Kepi Valentine cards are back! This year Kepi has created 200 hand-screened, hand numbered Valentine’s Day cards. These aren’t some print shop machine making these cards. Each card is hand screened where you can feel the ink raised off the paper.
Each card comes with two brand new KEPI songs that will rock your socks off.
1.Are You Gonna Leave Me?
2.Don’t Miss Out!
If you’ve ordered this before you know how special these are. Don’t get duped into buying a friggin hallmark card for $5 when you can have something real and precious with real human beings putting care in each card.
We sold out of these in what… 5 days last year? So get yours while you can. We will be shipping these out starting on Friday FEB 1st, so it will be there in plenty of time for the big VALENTINES DAY. If you want us to send it to your special someone, make sure to put their name in the shipping address box.
As a fun feature, one of the cards will include a cd with a bonus 3rd track that will reveal you are a winner. What do you win? The entire KEPI discography including a ton of extra bonus stuff we’ll be throwing in for good measure. Kind of like winning the golden ticket eh? So order now or forever lose out.
KEPI GHOULIE is now 100% confirmed for the asian man 15 year anniversary.
Anyone who doesn’t love Kepi is not a nice person.
