Brain Tumor Research Compilation

If you missed the benefit show in Detroit last night for Megan Stieg & Brain Tumor Research, then you likely missed the announcement of the compilation album we're helping out with. All the bands from the benefit show contributed tracks to an album that is now currently up on iTunes. Few and Far Between have included a brand new, unreleased track, while Break Anchor have released their first song ever. Telegraph have also provided an unreleased song as well. Here's the tracklist:

1. Few and Far Between - Exhibit A (unreleased)
2. Break Anchor - Can We Pretend (unreleased)
3. Telegraph - Cooperate (unreleased)
4. Wrist Rocket - Johnny 2 Dollars
5. Slo-Poke - Jake
6. Suburban Delinquents - Void

All proceeds will go to benefit Megan and Brain Tumor Research so make sure to head over to iTunes or your favorite online music store and purchase a copy.

New Few and Far Between & Uncut Releases!

We are very pleased to announce TWO exciting releases that will be available on August 9th.



The first is a limited edition 7" from Detroit (and New York's) Few and Far Between and Toronto's Uncut. If you live in the Detroit area, you've likely seen these two bands grace the stage together. Both bands contribute brand new tracks, unavailable anywhere else! The 7" is limited to only 300 copies worldwide. Only 50 will be available for purchase online.



The second release is a remix album from Few and Far Between. All 11 songs off last years "We're All Safe" have been re-imagined and remixed by eleven different artists on the new record "Farewell Sea". Similar to the 7" above, this CD is limited to 300 copies, with only 50 available for purchase online.

Both records will be available for purchase at the upcoming benefit show for Megan Stieg & Brain Tumor Research on August 6th. If you don't know what we're talking about, go here or read a few posts down. As if you didn't need a better reason to attend the show aside from it being for a great cause, it will also likely be the only place you can score these new records unless you get your orders in online.

If you're familiar with Elkion, then odds are you're familiar with the artwork of Mark Penxa. Mark handled the art direction for both new releases (as well as the majority of our records). Please make sure to stop by and see some of his other work online here.

Coming To Get You Video

Few and Far Between's second video from "We're All Safe" is now up for viewing. The video, featuring exactly zero men jackhammering by a river (see here), has the guys finally getting in front of the camera.
