Wed, 13 Aug 2008 05:47:22 GMT

This is a great video of Ty Segall performing last weekend at Amnesia. Ty's first vinyl release will be out really fucking soon on CCR... and hopefully before Ty's tour next month with Thee Oh Sees.

Time to Chug-a-lug with the Rantouls

Thu, 31 Jul 2008 06:47:34 GMT

Hot off the presses, the first release by Sunnyvale, California's only remaining Bubblegum band, the Rantouls. These four songs will get so stuck in your head that you'll be playing Chug-A-Lug over and over and over again. Get ready to buy a new record needle!

And if you haven't been lucky enough to see the Rantouls' matching outfits in person, you should definitely grab a copy of The Psychedelic Freakout DVD. Its got both a live performance and a music video by the Rantouls with performances by other Bay Area favorites.

Traditional Fools LP available!

It wasn't finished before the Fools' US tour started, but its here now. Wizard Mountain / Make A Mess teamed up to release the Traditional Fools first LP. Hopefully we'll get some at the Chocolate Covered Factory soon, but in the mean time, grab the LP at Wizard Mountain.

Update: We now have the Traditional Fools LP available at the Chocolate Covered Factory.

Bad Ass Show Tonight!

Tue, 13 Nov 2007 21:00:01 GMT

The Stork Club will be having an ultra-exclusive rock and roll dance party tonight featuring Dreamdate, the Rantouls, Les Hormones, and DJs Dulcinea and the Duke of Windsor.

If you want to get in tonight, all you have to do is say "I love/hate Chocolate Covered Records", show the door guy your ID and give him 5 bucks. You don't even want to how much those fools who don't say the secret phrase will be paying!

And don't use all your energy tonight - there are even more great shows this weekend.

And if you need even more Chocolate Covered gear, pick up the CCR record shopping tote bag. Its perfect for holding all yer valuables 'cause everyone will know there's nuthin but junk inside!

And now, for something important, Mr. Ty Segall will soon be releasing four of his favorite tunes he recorded last summer on an upcoming Chocolate Covered Records 7". Hopefully all you kids out there have seen Ty's new band playing at your best friend's birthday party. If not, you need cooler friends.
