about

Chinese Telephones have exactly twenty-eight recorded songs in existence - twelve from their s/t album and sixteen from the singles and splits that make up Democracy. I know I am not alone in feeling like they have had a much larger impact on the past seven years of punk rock than a mere twenty-eight songs could achieve. Actually, if you don't count re-recordings of previously released songs, they only have twenty-four songs out there in the world! I think that speaks so highly to the greatness of their music. Sometimes the best bands make up for what they lack in quantity with undeniable quality. Chinese Telephones are a rare breed of band - they don't come along often so you better keep up with them while you can. This collection will serve as a great opportunity to do just that.

Our goal is to continue to put out awesome records by great bands and do what we can to put back what we can into this great scene that we've taken so much out of for as long as we can. ... more
