January 2023

It's going to be a hot start to the year for our little (but strong) label Dangerhouse Skylab... The first release of 2023 will be the new Lp from Vanilla Blue Sweetheart, one year after their fantastic debut album... Recorded in rural holiday mode, the album features 14 tracks, and is released with an included Cd version featuring 10 live tracks... We also note the participation of Jerry A. (Poison Idea) on vocals on the terrible Panic... A first track Pagan Crap has benefited from a video visible here... DSL 076, co-produced with Twenty Something, 500 copies, orange vinyl...

The second release this January will be the Lp repress of Pogy & the Kefars debut album Dans Ton Rétro... Originally released at 200 copies on Crapoulet, No Front Teeth and Bitume Rugueux, it was quickly sold out, and this repressing comes at the right time to accompany the band on a bunch of dates planned in February... Note a bonus track compared to the first pressing Marseille Tombe, DSL 075, 300 copies, co-produced with Echo Canyon...

And we're going to push the walls of the stockroom to welcome in the course of January the repressing of the indispensable first album of Beaten Brats... Largely sold out, it became necessary to put this punk rock n' roll bomb back within the reach of humanity, especially as the band is touring on dates this winter with Claimed Choice... This new edition will benefit from a new artwork in dominant blue of the sleeve as well as a vinyl of the same colour... DSL 031, 350 copies...

Highly anticipated, the new album by Civic is out mid-February on A.T.O, is entitled Taken By Force, and will benefit from a red vinyl... A first single End Of The Line is available to view here...
