NEW ISSUE!!! Manual Dexterity Music Zine May 2012

You probably notice that we did things a little bit different with the latest issue of Manual Dexterity. Instead of doing the standard zine that we usually do, we decided to have each article and interview be their own piece and then stuffed into a 7” record packaging. Colors of paper may vary from what’s shown. Copies will be available for purchase this weekend. Limited to 50 copies.

This is how it breaks down:

New Followers / New Issue Updates

Thanks to the awesome dudes at Topshelf Records (and their kind words), we got a bucketful of new followers this weekend, so… Hello new followers! You all should check out the ManDex 2011 Year End Sampler here or maybe check out some back issues here.  

The new issue is coming along swimmingly, just a couple things left to get back, and it’ll be ready to go! This next issue is definitely a departure from what we’ve done in the past, so put that pocket change/allowance aside, cause you’re gonna want to pick this one up.

Sky Corvair- “Iris Is Aching For A Day” Unsafe At Any Speed
Feat. Bob Nanna, Tim Kinsella, Kevin J. Frank, Neil Sandler

I think this album often gets overshadowed by Braid’s and Cap’n Jazz’s material, but it is seriously so good.
