The Menzingers - A Lesson In The Abuse Of Information Technology
Have you lost faith in modern punk? Then we have just the cure for you. The Menzingers’ smashing debut full-length “A Lesson In The Abuse Of Information Technology” hits stores across the country today! These four guys from Scranton, PA created a huge buzz with their EP in 2006, so you can expect big things from the album - imagine Anti-Flag in bed with The Clash and Against Me! and you'll have a rough idea of what The Menzingers are all about: rough, yet aggressive anthems, and passionate sing-a-longs paired with folk-acoustic songs.
You don’t believe us? Then hear for yourself as we are streaming five exclusive tracks from “A Lesson In The Abuse Of Information Technology” right on our website: www.GokartRecords.com/menzingersstream . And it’s free! So there's no excuse to not at least check them out!
Now comes the best part: To celebrate the release of “A Lesson In The Abuse Of Information Technology”, we have added a very special treat for you to our webstore Menzingers “T-Shirt and CD Bundle” for only $15! If that isn’t a steal! Just click here and check out the whole list of Menzingers stuff available.
And while you are at it, check the tourdates of the Go-Kart site section as The Menzingers might well be in your area any time soon!

Guff - Symphony Of Voices
Guff’s new record “Symphony of Voices,” was produced by Charlie Paulson of Goldfinger and Noah Shain (Orson).
“Symphony of Voices” is Guff but better. It still has their fun-loving spirit, but with a newfound immediacy not heard on earlier releases.
And check this out: while Guff was in the studio, Steve Perry, the legendary lead singer of Journey, walked in to visit a friend. He was so impressed with Guff that he showed up unannounced two days later and asked Guff to cover an unreleased Journey song. Steve not only produced the song “I Can See It In Your Eyes” but also sang on it! The track has already been played nationwide on Joe Benson’s syndicated “Off The Record” radio show and additionally on XM Satellite Radio.
Guff will be on the road non-stop once “Symphony Of Voices” is released. They will play on this year’s Warped Tour, open for Goldfinger this fall, and headline shows anywhere and everywhere. So make sure you do not miss them.
It's in stores June 26th and check out their myspace page - myspace.com/guff!

Our newest Go-kart Films release:

Reverend Billy And The Church of Stop Shopping

One man is afraid of our increasingly aggressive pursuit of globalization. One man has had enough of huge corporations stamping on little people. One man has decided to take a stand against everything he thinks is wrong in the world. Who is this man? His name is Reverend Billy, and together with his devoted followers in the Church of Stop Shopping he has waged a war on consumerism and globalization. This documentary follows Billy as he performs a series of shopping interventions in New York City, effectively stopping trade in a number of high profile outlets so he can deliver his sermons on why places such as Starbucks (which appears to be Billy's most common target) are morally reprehensible. Entertaining and educational, this film is a wonderful way to find out what this inimitable figure is all about.
