Just retweeted The Jazz June retweeting us retweeting Signals Midwest praising the new The World Is a Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die LP while listening to a toe test press. Life is fucking cool right now.
go-to-space asked: Hey sorry if you get this a lot, when can we expect a digital download of Whenever, If Ever if we pre-ordered the 12"? (I don't think this is a mail order question)
catchforus-thefoxes asked: Will you have your releases (the available ones) with you at Bled Fest? I wanted to place an order this weekend but it might be much cheaper to buy them at Bled (as I'm coming to the US for the festival and some other stuff) and put them in my carry-on luggage on the plane back to Belgium.

Photos from last night.
desperatedescension asked: Hey, me and my friend want to preorder TWIABP and Have Mercy's CD and LP bundle but the shipping cost is astronomical... I mean we're from Australia but for 2 CD and 2 LP bundles is shouldn't be $75...
dmkato asked: Hey, do you know when the Empire! Empire! On Time Spent Waiting EP is supposed to ship?

wherepostsgotodie asked: Hey guys. It sucks that W,IE got leaked but I just heard it on BandCamp and immediately had to buy it. Whenever Toe's discog gets released over here I'll definitely line that up too. Hope everyone is doing okay! Have a good one. :)
I think Mega Steve and the evolved form, Ultimate Steve, are both water-based Pokemon.

Have Mercy: "The Earth Pushed Back" →
Today’s stream comes from Baltimore, MD-based Have Mercy. We’ve got a stream of the band’s new release, The Earth Pushed Back. The album was produced by J. Robbins. You can find it on their Punknews.org Profile. (Just to editorialize for a second, the first single from the album (and from th.

iamsofuckingboring asked: Unwanted opinion trigger warning: I don't think you should worry about the leak, because honestly, most of the people who are/were excited as fuck about the leak will most likely end up buying physical copies of the album, for two reasons: 1) They love the shit out of TWIAP 2) Much like Enemies List is doing, people have developed a love for your label and your ethos because of you offering...

The World Is A Beautiful Place Respond To Month...
propertyofzack:
The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die’s Whenever, If Ever leaked onto the internet over a month early today. The release was set to be Topshelf Records’ biggest release of the year, so please pre-order it here. The band has smartly reacted to the leak with an announcement and stream of the album early. You can stream the record, buy the record, and...

Whenever, If Ever
Today was an exciting one here at our office as it saw the unveiling of two very special, near and dear records and our first foray into putting out a book (even if it has 200 pages and probably less than 200 words, haha). The humbling feeling of validation when you see something you believe in getting such widespread praise and support is something I hope everyone gets to experience at some point...

Crash of Rhinos // Topshelf Records
Ever since first hearing Distal in 2011 we’ve been hooked on Crash of Rhinos. The Derby, UK natives have written a record — entitled Knots — that is exactly what I ever want to listen to. So when we were asked to get involved with releasing it, it was kind of a no-brainer. Sonically, it fits perfectly with our catalog and if you’re typically a fan of records we put out, you’re...
desperate-vespers asked: I know this might have been asked already, but any chance of a Grow Up, Dude repress soon?
butter-spreadenson asked: Were you guys ever in a band?
deathcabforkehan asked: What was the first ever topshelf release?
luuther asked: Maybe I missed the news, but is their any on the Seasons in Verse records? I'm also curious if there will ever be a repressing of A Forrest of Polarity.
