Kestral Sound Review

Gold Robot Records is lucky to be part of a new event, called the Kestral Sound Review. Since all proceeds are going to fight breast cancer, we jumped at the chance to help out. The organizers have recruited curators, bands, artists, and DJ's for one show. Here's some details, more can be found over on the event's website.

Doe Eyed Posters

You might recall that the amazing Doe Eyed Design did the imagery on the newest Gold Robot Records t-shirts, which turned out pretty awesome. Well, they've gone and took the image and turned it into a pretty awesome poster. You can order your own, titled "Thief", for only $20. It's a limited edition of 50, so act fast.

New Digital Only Release

There's a brand new digital release in town, and it's a full length LP by Björn Kleinhenz. Head Held High on Fearsome Pride is a collection of 13 songs created around the time that he was putting the finishing touches on the excellent B.U.R.M.A. 12" record. It's a little more hushed, a little more intimate - and just as amazing as it's vinyl counterpart.

You can download the album for only $5 directly from us..... awesome.
