small doses: 2 new releases, 25% off EVERYTHING coupon, Discogs sale!!!

[small doses]

Hello my friends,

I'd like to bid you a much belated welcome to 2012. I hope the year is treating you well thus far. 

This first newsletter of the year is a doozie. You'll want to pay attention. 

There are four big topics in this newsletter:

• Two new releases: Blood Folke CD and Aderlating/Crown of Bone CDR
• Coupon sale: 25% off EVERYTHING in the shop
• Lots of new Distro titles added: over 25 additions to the shop
• Discogs sale: 25% off EVERYTHING I have for sale there

Two new Releases:

Blood Folke: s/t CD

i checked these guys out when I found out my band was playing a show with them. I managed to find their demo and a live show (their first) online. I honestly listened to nothing else for about 4 days. After playing with them (their second show) I was totally blown away, and I asked if I could work on this release with them. Blood Folke is an incredible three-piece from the Twin Cities. They bring together a host of influences to form one of the most unique sounds I've heard in metal in years. Dan Wieken's doom-laden guitar riffs and uneartly vocals blend with Lauren Gaffney's discordant viola. Both are rounded out with Bryan Pierson's precise pounding to form a cohesive, blend of doom, post-rock, and black metal. sample: http://www.small-doses.com/doses/107/dose107.htm

Aderlating/Crown of Bone split CDR

This disc brings together an intersting pairing. Aderlating (Gnaw Their Tongues) brings their own horrific take on death industrial-esque sound scapes. Crown of Bone (half of Demonologists) follow with relentless blasts of harsh noise. Pro CDR in an edition of 100 copies with Artwork by Mories of Aderlating.

Coupon Sale

In honor of the new releases and a desire to clear out some stock before my April move, I am offering a coupon that will give you 25% off of EVERYTHING in the Small Doses shop. Just enter the text "leap day" in the coupon number field when you check out, and 25% of your total - not including shipping - will be deducted. Be sure to check out the new releases. The Blood Folke CD will only be $6 with the sale! Lots of prices have already been reduced, the coupon will discount those even further. The sale will continue through March 12.

Discogs Sale

I have gone through a good portion of my music collection and have selected a sizable chunk to part with. There are well over 300 items up for sale on my page: http://www.discogs.com/seller/doses  While the small doses coupon sale is on, you can also save 25% off the listed prices on the discogs site. Please email me with what you would like, and I will send you a total with shipping and payment instructions. There isn't a way for me to offer the discount more directly, so just shoot me an email. Of course, I am happy to combine shipping with discogs items and small doses shop items. Just drop an email, and we can work out the details. Feel free to make offers on the items up on discogs as well. I am open to them, and won't refuse any reasonable offers. More items will be added over the coming weeks. 

Well, that was a lot. I think that's all for now. Thanks for the support. Drop a line if you have any questions. Thanks!

Best,

joe
