Hey guys!
Welcome, come on in :) Tonight we are opening preorders to Sheath email list subscribers for the new EP from Seattle/LA trio San Angelus! Made up of members from Pelican and Sparkmaker, the band takes all the best things about 90's post-hardcore & alt-rock jams and combines them into their own one-of-a-kind San Angelic chemical compound ;) For example: do you like Failure? Of course you do. Do you like Hum? Duh. Do you like Jawbox? All signs point to yes. Do you like Quicksand? Check!!!! Then you get the idea - this is your new favorite band!!! These are merely reference points however, because even though the band may loosely take a few cues here and there from some of those influential bands of the past, this is still music made with its feet planted very firmly in the present day with an individual voice entirely its own. But there's no need to just take our word for it, you can check out their previous full length Soon We'll All Be Ghosts HERE, which was released on the bands own Amber&Wool imprint. And then to get a taste of the new material contained on this 7", our friends over at Wondering Sound will be premiering a new track called Vacuum from this 7" tomorrow at 9am! Check the site out HERE and bookmark it for tomorrows premier!! Get ready to get gnarly!! For now, lets get informative...

The Bloodline Bundle
OK, I'm going to try to explain this... this package deal contains the new San Angelus 7" on whichever color is the most limited at the time of your order. Right now it comes with the baby blue w/grey & white splatter until that color sells out. Also included are some acts associated with San Angelus. For example, this package includes the popular Aeges/Dust Moth split 7" Bad Blood. This split includes San Angelus drummer Larry Herweg's final recording with Aeges. It also includes former San Angelus guitarist Mark Holcomb's first recorded output with Dust Moth (as well as Aeges first recording that didn't include Holcomb playing guitar on it). This package deal also has the Pelican 7" we did, in which Pelican/San Angelus drummer Larry Herweg crushes the kit. And lastly, this package includes Aeges' Southern Comfort 7". This 7" was the last recorded Aeges output to include former San Angelus guitarist Mark Holcomb (though he goes uncredited) before he left Aeges to join Dust Moth. It also has San Angelus/Pelican drummer Larry Herweg playing drums on his next to last release with Aeges. Does all that make sense? So yeah, there's the bloodline. We'll come up with a diagram soon :)
The Mylene Sheath 7" Collection
