Posters On Walls Records: volume one
October 4th, 2011
We're totally stoked about our inaugural compilation. It includes 17 tracks from 10 different acts that span rock, punk, post-rock, ambient, IDM, rap, blues, acoustic/singer/songwriter, electronic, zombie-core, and probably several other genres (but we're not much for labeling, so we'll leave it at that). This release represents the culmination of everything that we strive for as a label - honest music made by people that love what they do. We hope that the heart and soul that we poured into this is audible.
The entire compilation was mastered by Justin Douglas at Shine Studios, and features several previously unreleased tracks from Presidents of Texas, ifightthelivingdead, The Scotland Yard Sale, suitcases, and Dylan Barnes. It's also totally free - so download it, share it, burn copies onto blank CDs and throw them like frisbees in crowded public places. Or just listen. Whatever you end up doing, we love you for it.
Enjoy:

Our New Home
August 14, 2011
Posters On Walls Records has existed as an idea and small indie distribution label since 2004, but at the start of 2010 we went live with our v1.0 website and expanded our roster and sense of purpose.
In August 2011, we are extremely proud to present our new official home.
We hope you explore the site, check out the artists we have that maybe you haven't seen or known about before, and send us some feedback or just shoot the shit with us.
(postersonwallsrecords@gmail.com)
We're coordinating a few things for the fall, so stay tuned for some news in the next month or so.
To those who have helped us through everything so far, thank you. If you're just now joining us, welcome, it's a nice roller coaster.
