Artist:	NOTHING PEOPLE
Title:	Enemy With An Invitation/Reinstall
Label:	PERMANENT RECORDS
Format:	7"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	PERM 011EP

"Nothing People, like Wooden Shjips, are one of our generation's great bands, that doesn't tour much. Unless you live in or around their hometown of Orland, California, or you happened to pick up one of their excellent releases on S-S or HoZac, you may not have ever heard of them, but those who have, love them. On previous releases, they've blended influences such as Chrome, Hawkwind, Roxy Music, and obscure proto-punk bands like Twinkeyz into a sound that's all their own. This new limited edition 7", housed in a texured glue pocket sleeve with gold foil stamping on the exterior, is the first release featuring former Monoshock member Doug Pearson! This release includes two of their most rockin' numbers to date. Limited to 600 copies!"

Title:	Late Night
Label:	S.S. RECORDS
Format:	CD
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	SS 043CD

"The Nothing People's second album hit vinyl in 2009. On Late Night the band's sound shifts moodier, darker, and creepier. Hints of Dream Syndicate's Karl Precoda, the later head-screwed work of Scott Walker, the bad vibe side of Syd Barrett, and bits from that obscure subterranean world where psych met glam on a downward loop infects the record. This album does sound like a late night, on a deserted highway, maybe somewhere around the farm town of Orland, CA. We thought Late Night a very special record. The band's many fans and reviewers felt the same. Like Anonymous (and Soft Crash, which followed), Late Night mobbed the year-end lists. Being that Late Night is a favorite in the S.S. Records catalog, we decided to put it on CD and that is what we've done. Along with the ten songs that appeared on the original vinyl (including a great remake of Syd Barrett's 'Late Night'), we've included six more. Three of the songs previously appeared on now hard-to-find 7"s, three haven't been heard before. Included in these songs are covers of Roxy Music and Fuck. The CD issue of Late Night is packaged in the digipak format, using the original art work by Ilth."

Title:	Late Night
Label:	S.S. RECORDS
Format:	LP
Price:	$14.00
Catalog #:	SS 043LP

"It's been ten months since the Nothing People's debut album Anonymous came out and since then we've heard nothing but praise. In fact, the record wound up on many a Best of 2008 list. We are thinking that Late Night, their second full length, is gonna make even more people happy. From the sci-fi, psych, proto punk bombast of the first, the Nothing People shift gears into a moodier, darker, and creepier existence. Here you get the influence of Dream Syndicate's Karl Precoda and the later f-ed up work of Scott Walker. The record does sound like a late night, on a deserted highway, maybe somewhere around the farm town of Orland, CA, where these three -- nope four (they added a former Monoshock keyboardist!) -- are from. And that cover art? It is by Ilth. The Nothing People have released singles on S.S. and HozAc, as well as the aforementioned Anonymous, which is now in its second pressing."

Title:	Soft Crash
Label:	S.S. RECORDS
Format:	LP
Price:	$14.00
Catalog #:	SS 047LP

"Lots of bands, lots of records and usually by record two most bands crap out. Not the Nothing People. Since their first EP was released on S.S some four years ago, every subsequent Nothing People/S.S. release has gotten better and better. Soft Crash is no exception. And like the jump between their first album (Anonymous) and their second (Late Night), Soft Crash both expands and secures the Nothing People's sound. A proto-punk pulse mixes with a dark synth throb for something that sounds both of yesterday and tomorrow or in the words of Z Gun's Ryan Wells, 'These guys are science fiction!' Sci fi? As in Chrome, Von Lmo, and Simply Saucer? 'Natch.' And the man is right. However, unlike the ton of bands who get rifled in with classic underground names and cannot deliver, the Nothing People do their comrades justice. 2009's Late Night LP made a ton of year end 'Best Of' lists. The year before Anonymous hit a bunch of 'Best Of's. Soft Crash to your 'Best of 2010' list. Soft Crash is a great record. Includes download code."
