Hey LJ friends! This is Jillian from The Cottage Records in Tallahassee, FL. I am a fairly new addition to the label and will be updating this journal from now on. A little about me... I just moved here from Providence, RI. I brew ginger beer, hula hoop, love circus performance, have a silly haircut, and sometimes I'm a "living statue" to make money. I'm kind of a health nut, but goodness do I love to bake cupcakes. I also really like trains, writing letters, and making new friends. I'm stoked to be a new addition to the label, meet some cool people, and get awesome music out there for your listening pleasure.

Now onto the important stuff..

We have two new releases that are now available through our website- The Cottage Records. We're currently moving all operations into our new (bigger!) house and hope to have all of our releases available through Vinyl Collective soon.


Mose Giganticus- Commander! 7" OUT NOW!
-9 color variations, limited to 300
Plus, we've got a deal going where you can get the new 7" in lavender w/ white&black swirl (color only available in this deal!) and The Invisible Hand CD for $8. Sweet. Mose Giganticus Myspace-
the hardest working musician in punk rock, hands down, no argument. currently 4 months into a 7 month north american tour that is taking them to 49 states! imagine your favourite metal/punk bands being eaten by robots. Yeah, he is that awesome.


imadethismistake- It's Okay Cassette OUT NOW! (12" Available from Anti Creative and Covert Coercion)
-grey swirl, 500 first press
imadethismistake myspace-
a healthy dose of pop punk, folk, and old school emo. think against me!, mewithoutYou, and the Weakerthans.



We also have two releases coming up!

Knock Galley West- 5 new songs on a 7" vinyl Coming out September 2008!
Knock Galley West Myspace - three sweet dudes from valdosta, ga. one is short, one is really tall, and one plays mostly-naked. the best psychobilly/punk band i've ever heard. they rock like tiger army, against me!, and those records your dad has stashed away.

The Two Funerals- Tell Yr Story 7" Coming out October 2008!
The Two Funerals Myspace - the best band in the world. three girls playing amazing punk rock that mixes in elements of The Devotchkas, Bikini Kill, and Sleater-Kinney.

imadethismistake - it's okay cassette tapes have arrived and might i say, they look mighty sexy. you can snag a copy via www.chimneysweeprecords.com or www.thecottagerecords.com

the two funerals have put a new song up on their profile called "grey skies"! it is awesome and was recorded in the session that will make the "Tell Yr Story 7" " we are putting out at summers end.
