OUR NEW ALBUM - "YEAH WE ALL ARE" - CAN BE PURCHASED ONLINE AT WWW.THEBLUEHOUSE.ORG. we also feel awkward about buying+selling things. please propose a trade, we'll likely accept it

we are are roommates, college friends, siblings and complete strangers (but not complete strangers)
we like Pavement, Krautrock, Fugazi, Elephant 6 Records, Ward Churchill and Howard Zinn.
we come from Burnt Oak Records, a collective and community resource based (physically, anyway) in Guelph (Squamp), Ontario. we talk and talk and talk and talk and make music together and make art with our hands. we "do it ourselves," and you should do it with us. you should look at our website. burntoak.ca.
we live in new york city, binghamton and toronto/guelph
