Sotones is pleased to announce the release of ‘SOTONES10’, an all-new compilation to celebrate their 10th anniversary and 85th release on Friday 3rd November.

‘SOTONES10’ (STLP085) is a double-length compilation of entirely new tracks recorded by current and former Sotones artists including Band of Skulls, Moulettes, Anja McCloskey, Fred Kinbom and Dave Miatt (Thomas Tantrum). 

Founded in 2007 in the industrial port of Southampton, Sotones Music Co-operative (which owns Sotones Records and Sotones Music Publishing) have managed to survive and thrive in their first decade, against difficult economic headwinds and in the shifting sands of a rapidly-changing music industry. Over that time Sotones have released 85 records in all formats, worldwide, to national and international acclaim; while Sotones artists have performed thousands of live shows across the world, from living-room shows to major national tours and festivals with audiences in their thousands.

As well as releasing music by established artists, Sotones have nurtured young emerging local talent, with releases by more than 40 named artists and showcasing hundreds more at their live events across the South of England.

In a time of musical and social uncertainty, Sotones’ example and message of co-operation and optimism shine like a lighthouse across the gloom.

With gigs across the UK and a strictly-limited 2x12” LP this autumn, Sotones invite fans, believers and music nuts to join them to celebrate 10 incredible years spent defying the odds: ten.sotones.co.uk

Hold That Thought

CXR is Joseph Coward, Nik Buzz & Samir Eskanda.

We have known the personnel in this band on a personal level since the labels formation in 2012, So it's not much of a revelation that we are naturally over the moon to be releasing the bands first ever recordings, Engineered and recorded as per-usual by our very own Tim Garratt.

CXR is breakneck punk thru viewfinders of Artaudian performance art and political disrupt. CXR likes Teenage Jesus & The Jerks, Arab On Radar, Psychic TV, Rosa Yemen, Siri Hustvedt, This Heat, Ludwig Wittgenstein, and Sonic Youth. Expect monthly communiqués detailing live appearances, civil disturbance and news from warzones everywhere...CXR is not a band..

SOTONES10: Ten Years of Sotones, double VINYL album featuring Eat More Meat out now on Sotones Records.

“Too smart...their heads spin with ideas. Truly fab and ready for mass attention” - John Robb, Louder Than War

"Genius Lyrics and great vocal delivery. Thank God there are still bands telling it like it is" - Tom Robinson BBC6music

“raw and subversive...takes no prisoners”  - The Vinyl District

“superb journey of conundrum” - Tim Whale, Emerging Indie Bands

"tons of attitude and a DIY ethic embedded in their bones" - Artrocker

"Don’t forget your dancing feet as the scintillating reference points of ska, rock-a-billy and Morricone will sweep you on to the dance-floor." - Tim Whale, Emerging Indie Bands

"Just waiting for Quentin Tarantino to snap them up for one of his soundtracks" - Nick Tann, Is This Thing On?

"Marvellous little jocular but oft times intense garage combo wherein The Cramps, The Fall and The Minutemen get given a  wonky pop makeover to much effect."

"White Ape are causing a stir with the likes of Steve Lamacq – and it ain't stir crazeee. Their splice-the-mainbrace nautical approach to punk rocknroll has some swish rancid post punk elements, some Cave-ish quarters, a singer who sounds like Sean Ryder on a punky tip and the occasional foray into drrty cod reggae. But now rejigged with a little beat group classiness and some hot and frenzied songcraft, White Ape have really embraced their inner Sky Saxons..." - Bugbear Promotions

“Deranged twisted psych punk.... sounds like a bunch of tanked-up tarantulas dressed in dinner jackets tip-toeing down a dark alleyway. Welcome to the cult world of white ape...”  -  FEED YOUR HEAD
