WARM IN THE WINTER RECORD RELEASE PARTY

Tonight at Los Globos in Los Angeles is the official release party for Glass Candy's new double single. Two killer tracks that finally give us a peak at BODY WORK. They'll have the cd version with them tonight. Chromatics is going to be there too. So get there early because it's going to be insane. The bands have sick new shirts and traveling with the entire Italians Do It Better store. As usual everything's cheap. For everyone who isn't on the west coast...we'll have the cds & colored vinyl 12"s next week here in the store.

CAN COSMIC

mysterious mix consisting of quirky re-edits from a totally "unknown"
dj duo from Spain called CAN COSMIC. ENJOY the mysteries of life..

Last week when Glass Candy came to NYC...Johnny
brought down the last copies of "Black & White" from
Montreal. We only have 50 copies... So order fast. 30

He also brought 25 copies of each of the Perseo 12

are back by popular demand & won't last long...The
Art Books & Perseo bundles are out of print. This is
it. You can check out all 30 posters on Primitive Desire.
