SIDECHO RECORDS

The "24/7 Spring Cleaning Sale"
Starting Monday, April 16th, the SideCho Records Online Store will be having a crazy "24/7 Spring Cleaning Sale", named so because everything is either $2, $4 or $7. If you have just $2, you can get either 5 posters, or select CDs. Start putting away your winter sweaters and buy a cool band shirt for just $7. We even have the exclusive Copeland/The Pale vinyl split available only at the SideCho store, and it's only $7!!

This sale is seriously so awesome I can barely contain myself, but there's MORE. For every order you place, you're entered into a drawing to win an ALTERNATIVE PRESS/GUITAR HERO PRIZE PACK, which includes an annual subscription to Alternative Press magazine and the popular Guitar Hero video game (yes, with the guitar). Once again, the sale starts on Monday, April 16th and will last until Monday, April 30th. After that the prices go back up and we'll pick a winner for the AP/Guitar Hero pack. Good luck and happy shopping!!

Interns and Street Teamers
We are always looking for more interns and street teamers. If you're interested in interning, emailing a cover letter and resume to annette@sidecho.com. For the street team you can email streetteam@sidecho.com for more info on how to get started.

TOKYO ROSE

Want to be Thanked in Tokyo Rose's New Album??
Even though the new album, The Promise in Compromise, isn't out until July, we thought we'd put something cool together for you early birds. If you pre-order the album from the SideCho Records Online Store from April 16-April 30 (yes, the same dates as the "24/7 Spring Cleaning Sale"), your name will be in the "Thank You"s section in the CD liner notes. Pretty cool, huh? This pre-order will only be for the CD and it'll cost $10. After the 30th, the pre-order will end and the usual pre-order campaign (with the two pre-order packages) will begin in June.

BLINDED BLACK

First off, if you have a website or write for a magazine and you're interested in setting up an interview or anything with the band, you can email Earshot Media or hit us up at info@sidecho.com with the subject "Blinded Black".

Blinded Black Video Interview on Buzznet.com
DJ Rosstar recently interviewed Blinded Black at their Hollywood show. Check out the video at Buzznet.com. There's a link on the front page as well as the music page.

On Tour Now with LoveHateHero, Vanna & Morello
Blinded Black is just about a week into their first full national tour, which is also the first chance for many of you to see the band. Don't miss this awesome tour when it hits your town. Here are the remaining dates for the tour:

New Stuff on MySpace
Blinded Black has added a bunch of cool new stuff to their Myspace profile, including the song "A Perfect Murder", videos from the road, and a few photos. Check it out: myspace.com/blindedblack.

We Want To See Your Blinded Black Photos and Videos
Whether you've taken pictures or video of the band at a show or filmed yourself singing to your favorite Blinded Black song, we know you all have something to show us. We've set up a page for all you Blinded Black fans over at Buzznet.com and want you guys to start sharing your stuff. You can even write a blog about going to one of their shows and if you tag it with "Blinded Black" then it'll show up on this page as well. It's a great way to show the band that you love them as well as meet other people with great taste in music just like you :) To get started, just head over to buzznet.com/tags/blindedblack and hit the UPLOAD button to post some videos or pictures. If you already have an account on there, anything you post to your personal profile will show up on this page as long as you tag it with "Blinded Black" (yes, those are the magic words).

THE ONLY CHILDREN

As with Blinded Black, anyone interested in doing an interview or otherwise with The Only Children can email 230 Publicity or info@sidecho.com with the subject "The Only Children". Serious inquiries only!

Pre-Order "Keeper of Youth"
You can pre-order the album right now by clicking here. As usual, we have two pretty awesome deals going on:

-10 bucks: you get the CD, an autographed poster, and The Only Children stickers and buttons
-20 bucks: you get all of that -plus- an exclusive The Only Children tshirt that they designed just for this pre-order

If you wanna help promote the pre-order, that'd be really nice. Just copy and paste the HTML from below the banner:



New Song on MySpace
The Only Children is now streaming a new song on their MySpace profile called "Amen Amen" from Keeper of Youth. We decided to follow suit and it's up on the SideCho profile as well.

The Only Children Buddy Icons and Wallpapers
We just added two AIM buddy icons and two wallpapers (both in 800x600 & 1020x768 sizes) for The Only Children. I think they're really cool looking and a good way to spread the word about the new album. Check 'em out in the Media Lab on sidecho.com.
