1/12 TKO RND 123 Broken Bottles-In The Bottles
These boys are taking SoCal by storm with their catchy yet offbeat tunesmithing and snearing sinuous guitars. Razorcake magazine calls Broken Bottles first full length on TKO "the most anticipated punk release of the year". Their sound recalls the intense moody bad seed punk of bands like TSOL, Shattered Faith and pre-blue- collar -sober -honkey tonk- Social D. Telling true tales of radioactive youth and down and out street love Broken Bottles will take you back if you remember when and bring you up to speed on what melodic punk really should sound like if you have yet to lose your Sum 41 training wheels.

1/26 TKO RND 125 Smogtown-All Wiped Out
This all too brief record contains the last gasp of the Fuhrers of The New Wave and fearless leaders of the New Beach Alliance, Smogtown. As they paddle out for the last time on All Wiped Out you will shed a tear and ask why do all the great ones go so soon? R.I.P. Smog City Wavers.
1/26 TKO RND 124 The Crumbs - Last Exit
Miami, FL's, the CRUMBS formed out of their love for the RAMONES, '50s Rock nâ Roll, and an excessive habit of coffee, alcohol and additional inspirations of the DEAD BOYS, the PAGANS, CRIME, the STOOGES, the MC5, and other pre-1977 punk acts. Since 1993 the CRUMBS have been putting out records and crashing towns consistently on labels like RECESS, FAR OUT and LOOKOUT!. In January of 2004, the CRUMBS will break over three years of silence with Last Exit, their fifth studio album and latest release since 2000âs Out Of Range. Last Exit is a blend of raw buzz-saw guitars and classic Rock nâ Roll melodies, drug through the greasy pavements of the South, through big city dark alleys, and ending in the Statesâ last exit-Miami! This sound can only be described in one way…ASSAULTING!!! Ten years into the game, the CRUMBS are back to show the world in this age of Warped-Tour-Boy-Band-Mall-Punk that REAL Punk Rock nâ Roll still packs a mean wallop!!
