Ydinperhe is planning to make another trip to the US this year. This time around, they will be accompanied by Finnish hardcore band Haistelijat. The tour will start in Texas. No schedule has been set in stone, but a rough route has been scratched out. I can say we will be playing in Houston, McAllen, Austin, and El Paso. Salt Lake City is a strong possibility as well.
I am hoping to hit cities that are not the typical stops. Got your ears on, Amarillo?
You can check the bands here:

Käpykaarti LP + Sekaannus / Massacre Split LP AVAILABLE
This is an update to let you know that the newest releases I have been involved with are here and available. Order information is listed with the mailorder section.
I admit that I suck at giving descriptions and drawing comparisons when it comes to this stuff, but I did find a couple of quotes to inject here and there that I liked.
Käpykaarti
Slanted, rough-edged, angry Finnish punk rock with anarchistic lyrics. This is what Käpykaarti brings to the table. These guys have been doing this for many years, and it shows. Bling-bling rock stars, the Winter War fans and other bases of the society get their share of the old-timers' derision. Käpykaarti shout the facts and they do it loud!"
I got the quote from here. I will also be getting copies of the new Käpykaarti 7" which was released this past November for a short Finnish tour in support of Finnish punk magazine Toinen Vaihtoehto.
Sekaannus / Massacre
In January, I should be getting copies of the newest release I have been associated with; Sekaannus / Massacre - split LP. I inserted another quote from Kämäset Levyt Records below. I should add a big THANKS to Jukkeli for having me be a part of this!
came in 2008 and here we have now a full-length split-lp showing that both bands are still alive and strong! 8 tracks from each band including a cover song from each others. Note that this record is only pressed 300 copies and comes on thick vinyl!!! Includes a 20-pages booklet as well!"

BHL Label News
Bad Hair Life Records on Cassettes
Crysis Records in Malaysia has released three of the Bad Hair Life LPs on cassette. I should say thank you to Anix for his interest in this, time spent, and patience. I was 100% behind this idea when he asked and I think this is really cool; a great way to get these releases into that part of the world, where I am told these have mostly sold.
The releases are cassette versions of the Pahaa Verta and Ydinperhe LPs. These have been done on a single cassette. The Ydinperhe side also consists of their tracks from the split 7" with Pahaa Verta. The other cassette is the Secret Prostitutes' Nevermind the KBD, This is A.D.D. LP.
I will not be getting these for sale in my go-nowhere mailorder, but I do have a lot of other goodies.
More info here: http://crysisrecords.tumblr.com/
Newest Release: Käpykaarti LP Repress Available
While I have been busy with the Secret Prostitutes repress, another repress was taking place in Finland. This is a repress of the Käpykaarti LP, which came out earlier this year. The band really handled everything, as it was their own self-release initially. When I heard this record last summer, I was stoked to get something going. Their plans were to repress the LP and they were kind enough to ask if I would like to take part. I am very thankful and proud to be a part of the second coming of this record. The go-it-alone spirit of this band rules, and bonus is they aren't much younger than myself. They also have a new 7" available, which is their own release.
The original pressing was 500 copies with the discobag (aka "euro-style") innersleeves. The vinyls are all black and the jackets all are printed innerside-out. Everything about the LP is the bands' own creation. This recent repress is another pressing of 500. Everything is the same as the original. The pressings were done by Flight 13 Duplication in Germany. This is the company I used for the Ydinperhe LP. I have nothing but great things to say about them and they have always been very prompt and informative, especially with international shipping tips (my favorite subject). This is matrix number LN-007 for BHL.

Secret Prostitutes LP Repress Info
ALL COPIES ARE SOLD OUT.
PLEASE DO NOT ORDER. Thanks to everyone who did. All paid orders have been shipped out.
As of Dec. 26, I know Feral Ward still has some copies. You can also contact our local record store, Sound Exchange.
In Europe, try Repo Man in Copenhagen and Punk Iberico in Spain. In Finland, try Roku Records. Static Shock Records in UK also got copies, but I'm not sure if they have any left.
In Japan, try Nat Records and Record KNOX, though I'm not sure if they still have copies.
The Secret Prostitutes' Nevermind the KBD, This is A.D.D. LP has been repressed. The release has the same release number (LN-005) and was done by the same pressing plant, A&R Records in Dallas, Texas. As before, I have had only good times with A&R. This repressing took longer than what I have become used to, but more business for the pressing plant should be happy news.
For this release, the band had asked for yellow wax, so the vinyl on all copies is yellow with some black, white, clear and red mixed right in there with the yellow. There are 500 copies.
The jackets were made by Imprint Indie Printing. Adit came up with the outer cover artwork. I did the innersleeve work over the summer after returning from the Pahaa Verta/Ydinperhe tour. Everything was created with photocopiers, scissors, glue, shakey hands, and bad taste. We 'fine-tuned' the images with a computer. These LPs come with a Euro style innersleeve, like the Ydinperhe LP did.
All copies were ordered without center labels, but as the pressing went on, the vinyl began to stick to the center of the stampers. The plant contacted me and recommended completing the run with paper center labels; it was that or quit at 400. As a result, the last 100 or so copies have paper center labels. I was really bummed about this truthfully, because I wanted to avoid a special, or limited edition. Our preference was to have wax only. I really think these look better for this.

Welcome to
Arsenal of Poverty Mailorder
Arsenal of Poverty Mailorder
To make things complicated, I gave the mailorder a different name and translated it to English. Prices are listed. They do not include shipping. I charge for mailer (if I don't have a reusable), shipping, and 4% for pay pal. I like this way as opposed to adding more to each record to account for these things. I am happy to add insurance, tracking, or whatever you wish. For large orders, especially foreign and distros, I ALWAYS double box and re-inforce the corners! I can pack anyway you prefer, just let me know; keep in mind that it will add to the shipping weight/cost, but in some cases I would recommend it. You can reach me here: mosquitopool@gmail.com.

Ydinperhe - S/T LP
I had heard of this band through Pahaa Verta and was an instant fan. After all, fanhood is why I am doing this. I was very lucky that they were willing to work with me and they have been tremendously supportive and this partnership has taught me a lot. I hope there will be more to come. Thanks YP!
The band wanted to do the pressing in Europe, since that is where most of the records would most likely sell. This has really been the case with every BHL release, including the Secret Prostitutes; sales are mostly in the EU. For this pressing, we used Flight 13 Duplication in Germany. Every step of the production was done through them. They were easy to work with and F-13 is the mirror of professionalism. The test presses arrived quickly and the production of the actual records was only about two weeks from the time we approved the test presses. Everything was clean and the the quality was top notch.
Of the 733 LPs, 200 came to the US. As for the cost of shipping to the US from Germany, it was 350 euros for the 200 LPs. These were double boxed and responsibly packed for shipping. The pressing plant did a very nice job of it. The downside to this is that it adds up and the records aren't as cheap as I would like. This is just an unavoidable fact of it. For me, in the USA, to fairly work with a foreign band, the sale price is probably going to hurt. I find to speak of such high prices and profit in punk is about like speaking of safe sex in a Southern Baptist Church; it's taboo. Vinyl punks, this maybe the dusk of our time; extincted by gas and tax. Too bad that some folks don't recognize that profit is necessary to make the free stuff, like stickers and buttons. Also, profit is necessary to be prepared for the ever-increasing costs associated with doing this. It is reality. Funny to me is that a few of the complaints I've heard have come from people who weren't alive when prices were cheap. Back to it, the rest went to Helsinki. The shipping for 533 LPs to Helsinki from Germany was about 150 euros. We also paid a VAT (tax) for the Finnish customs and that was about 19% of the value for the records that went into the country. I have to say that Flight 13 worked this out for us and saved us some money here, not much, but they made a great effort and it's appreciated. We will have copies on tour with us this summer on the east coast. The tour dates are listed below. You can check out tracks here:
http://ydinperhe.bandcamp.com/
I know I tend to ramble about the costs, but my intention when I began doing this was to try and give some insight to newbies like myself and let them know what I have experienced with what I have done. I always welcome any advice and suggestions. If anyone can direct me to the cheapest (not crappiest) way of getting records out, please write. I am always happy to hear from people.
And before I forget, this record RULES!

Secret Prostitutes - Nevermind the KBD, This is A.D.D.
The Secret Prostitutes - Nevermind the KBD, This Is A.D.D. album was the fifth release for Bad Hair Life Records. The matrix number for this is LN-005. This LP was a pressing of 400 copies, all on black vinyl. It was completed in April 2010 and released in June 2010.
The mastering and pressing for this was done together with LN-004, the Pahaa Verta LP. Mastering was done in Belvidere, Illinois at Prairie Cat Mastering. The vinyl was pressed in Dallas, Texas at A&R Record and Tape Mfg. I cannot say enough kind words about either of these places and both come with the highest recommendation. Future BHL releases will pass through their halls.
The delay in this project was "what kind of artwork do we want?" The original idea was spraypainted jackets with only the logo. I was happy with that idea, but wanted the song titles to be known. Artwork for an insert was created with a photocopier. After that, we changed our plans and were going to have the jackets screenprinted at a local printer. As the weeks went by it became clear that this was not going to happen. The original idea then came into fruition. The artwork I created became the LP inserts and with the help of Adit (singer/drummer of Secret Prostitutes), Corey (my 14 year old son), Chris (Death Exlamations Records main man), and Matthew (No Talk basser), the jackets were spraypainted in various fashions and formats. There was no plan behind the production - no count of styles, designs, types, variants, colors, - no "first 50" or "first anything". I have read that there is a "limited" version of this LP. Please note that THERE IS NOT!! I should mention here that the insert sleeves come in yellow, white, and green. I'm not sure which color the sales clerk at Office Max made first...I read somewhere else that it was "yellow". I have more photos in Photobucket, but can't figure out how to find them without logging in.
For the inner sleeves, I chose to use plastic. I like these over paper because they do not scuff the wax. When I check out my oldest records, the ones that look the best are in plastic sleeves. The plastic inners I bought were from Square Deal Music in California. They are on the web and also have an ebay store. These things stand up well and do not crumple up when you slide them into the jacket. The cost is about 11 cents per piece, which is about 5 cents more than the cheap paper sleeves you get at the pressing plant. The extra cost here is definitely worth it.
Since the Secret Prostitutes are a local band, I had no shipping to pay! If you read the other posts, you may know how dear shipping is to me. I must write that I offered Josh, the guitar player, the 20% that I give to bands, but he only took 10 copies for each member! That left me extra copies to sell and send for radio and review. The money will go back into BHL and hopefully another Secret Prostitutes project. This kindness will always be remembered!
I guess that's it. Look for more this coming winter.
