The debut LP from Lexington, KY's THE ELSINORES. Dreamy, post-punk influenced songs that evoke feelings of nostalgia, loss, and hope simultaneously.

Perfect production that's full and enveloping rounds everything out.
500 copies on black vinyl, most with screen printed inside-out LP jackets, less with screenprinted fold-over covers, all including an 8 page half-sized zine with lyrics, art, and associated writings about the album and songs therein.
This is HKR-014. Released in conjunction with IFB, Karmic Swamp, Dead Tank, and Human Crush.

NOTCHES "Normal" CS Out Now!

The excellent NOTCHES "Normal" EP is finally out and available on cassette from Hip Kid Records.  100 copies on red imprinted, pro-dubbed cassettes.  

This New Hampshire band features members of Billy Raygun and Betty Nico playing an absolutely perfect combination of mid-90's alt-rock, pop punk from every era, and still manages to keep it totally unique with an aesthetic and recording firmly rooted in DIY punk.  Six bangers that will get, and remain, stuck in your head.
