Team Cabin- Noodly 3-piece that likes things loud, poppy, and sometimes pretty fucking fast. Think Bars of Gold, Hella, etc.

Justseeds Organizers Are Here!

99307EEA-B6BF-483B-B540-4CC3609BADBF-2242-000001B0911421ED_zps5bf34a6eJust in! Large and small Justseeds organizers for the coming year! If you have never seen one in person, you need to as they are simply beautiful. Each month has an accompanying gorgeous full page print. A little on Justseeds:

“Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative is a decentralized network of 24 artists committed to making print and design work that reflects a radical social, environmental, and political stance. With members working from the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, Justseeds operates both as a unified collaboration of similarly minded printmakers and as a loose collection of creative individuals with unique viewpoints and working methods. We believe in the transformative power of personal expression in concert with collective action. To this end, we produce collective portfolios, contribute graphics to grassroots struggles for justice, work collaboratively both in- and outside the co-op, build large sculptural installations in galleries, and wheatpaste on the streets – all while offering each other daily support as allies and friends.”

We only have limited quantities of each size, so get in touch with your favorite Trumbullplexer to obtain one or pick one up the next time you are over for an event.

Hearts,

the Trumbullplex

Braille (Philadelphia), S.U.B. (Ferndale), Screams of Christ at Trumbullplex October 15!

Take my tidings:
Stags contend;
Snows descend–
Summer’s end!

A chill wind raging,
The sun low keeping,
Swift to set
O’er seas high sweeping.

Dull red the fern;
Shapes are shadows;
Wild geese mourn
O’er misty meadows.

Keen cold limes each weaker wing,
Icy times–
Such I sing!
Take my tidings.

Braille! punk for philly. listen here: http://braillephiladelphia.bandcamp.com/

LEMURIA

group3Tuesday July 2nd, 2013

Sometimes when bands get famous they find themselves suddenly too cool to play the anarchist collective. They get a band manager, who wouldn’t find it a profitable enough business move. Well, NOT LEMURIA! why? because they are FUCKING AWESOME.
