PRE ORDER 7" AND COMIC: http://artishardrecords.limitedrun.com/products/517480-best-friends-happy-anniversary-nosebleeds-7-and-comic

Doherty and heroin. Gazza and the booze. Rolf and the kids. They all eventually relapsed, and would you look at that, it's our turn now too.

Having been featured on several past AIH releases, we return again to musical mystros and all-round-good-guys Best Friends. They’ve previously dominated cassette tape, CD/photo book and pizza box formats so we were running low on ideas of how to get these guys out .. obviously vinyl was a natural and long deserved progression.

And if vinyl wasn’t enough for you, the band have put together a comic that will be included with each 7” (which by the way are a lovely frosted colour). All the artwork is put together by Lew Currie of Nai Harvest.

"Happy Anniversary / Nosebleeds" is presented as a double AA single - the former starting slow, teasing a glimpse towards a more mature side of the band before morphing its way into a heroic climax and unleashing a true summer anthem. "Nosebleeds" is an audible cross-country train that doesn’t even have time to stop at Salisbury, taking you exactly where you want to be before you finish your packed lunch.

'Happy Anniversary / Nosebleeds' is set for release on September 23rd but is available to pre-order now. Purchase just the frosted 7” w/ comic or grab a package deal with a dope new Best Friends tee.

Totem - See-Saw Girl

Whether you walked to work or to the shop or to your barbers today, chances are you did so kicking through piles of golden leaves. Perhaps you were wearing a scarf too. hese new chilled winds are a welcome change; girls excited to wear mittens, guys forced to wear the jumpers they were gifted the previous festive season.

Welcome to the softer side of Jack Collister. Usually found looking more like Animal from The Muppets and sat behind fellow members of Best Friends, the soothing banjo-infused folk is a wholesome complimentary to confusing dark afternoons and cold evenings. Previously a solo project, Jack has fleshed out his sound with a hand from Ed from Best Friends, Apple from Avida Dollars and Lew from Nai Harvest (also did the ace artwork)

As a generous addition to our track this week, Jack has also offered the entire Five Leaf Nettles EP as a free download to all Postcard Club subscribers. A stripped down Best Friends reinterpretation, a lolsome CKY cover and three beautiful originals - consider it early festive cheer.

Five Leaf Nettles - Autumn

As a special Christmas treat to ourselves, we commisioned the creator of one of favourite EP's of the year to craft us a song of seasonal magnitude. Along with the help from a couple of his friends, Bristol based Ellis Jones (also known as Trust Fund) has created something truly spectacular. Although you'll hear no outpourings of love for Christmas's past, the song still seems to carry a feeling of warmth, goodwill and a smattering of sleigh bells. Despite the rather ambiguos start, by the time the trumpets and trombones gently float in, you know you're in for a triumphant final two minutes.

This is the final part of our 2013 singles club - The Postcard Club. As it's Christmas we swapped the postcard for a Christmas Card and got 100 printed, there's only a couple left and you can grab them from our shop - http://artishardrecords.limitedrun.com/products/508709-the-aih-postcard-club
