Contributed by mikexdude. Posted by aubin on Friday, June 18, 2010 at 4:30 PM (EDT)

Hartford, Connecticut's Make Do and Mend have teamed up with Paper and Plastick to co-release their debut full length with Panic Records. The band had this to say:

...the sound is definitely more mature than anything from our previous EPs, but overall it's definitely a MDAM record; very driving, heavy and filled with a lot of emotion."

The band will kick off their summer tour with Hostage Calm on July 6th in Baltimore, MD. They previous released Bodies of Water in 2009.

Did Vinnie invent the internet or something? How the hell does he keep cranking this stuff out?

Dante3000 (rich) (June 18, 2010)

That FBR dolla!

bastard_squad (June 18, 2010)

How far can that be stretched?

Dante3000 (rich) (June 18, 2010)

Quite a ways apparently. Long enough to hopefully over shadow the legacy of what that label became. I kid, I love P+P, though.
Come to California. NOW!

Inch by inch pal. Thought I was going to Napa this weekend but that shit got moved to somebody else.

We in the flyover states request a friendly wave as you pass at 40,000feet. We also request pictues of Dante eating salsa.

bastard_squad (June 18, 2010)

I waved at your state last weekend as I passed it. The weather in your area made my plane all turbulent and unfun.

I'll get that salsa picture if it kills him.

Dante3000 (rich) (June 18, 2010)

Good, I wouldn't have been there (out of town this weekend). Also, eff that guy. Secondly, Salsa picks on the way.

bastard_squad (June 18, 2010)

If I show up and you leave town I will absolutely crap on your doorstep and put a little flag in it claiming my territory.

Leave a shovel so Dante doesn't get cited for not pooper scooping.

I know a lot of smaller indies aren't even really doing advances anymore, and that, essentially, if a band has a record done, they'll release it. I can't help but think this is the case with a lot of these releases.

His equity is post-paramore and post-fall out boy.. His share had to be AT LEAST 20% (most likely higher) and that's a shitloads of moolah.

ZachLeg (June 18, 2010)

he doesn't crank it out. he gives a release date and then puts the record out 3 months late.

OneMoreBlatz (June 19, 2010)

On the money. Still without my Egerton vinyl. Now expected release, according to Hot Top..er Interpunk, 07/09/10, two months after original release date.

T-Rock (June 18, 2010)

The EP they have streaming on the Org is amazing. Can't wait to hear more. Hope its a similar vibe.

Dante3000 (rich) (June 18, 2010)

Stoked for this. I've listened to their stuff a ton this last month. This will be a highly anticipated release.

Mystereohasmono (June 18, 2010)

Bodies of Water was one of the best things to get cranked out in '09. Next to the Summit of course. BOOM!

louballs (June 18, 2010)

I remember when I heard the first song on "Cheshire Cat," I thought, "Gee, these guys are trying really hard to ape NOFX." When I listened to the first (whole band) song on MDAM's E.P., I thought, "Gee, these guys are trying really hard to ape Hot Water Music."

dX927 (June 18, 2010)

so they made a monkey out of HWM?

mikexdude (June 19, 2010)

I think you're fucking stupid. Musically speaking, there is quite a difference.

half_head (June 18, 2010)

i'm way excited for this!!! has that split come out yet?

frank460 (June 18, 2010)

not out and still no idea when it will be. but seriously the song on their myspace from the split is really good.

quickattack (June 18, 2010)

Stoked. Thay rule, so does Hostage Calm.

scientistrock (June 18, 2010)

I know one of these dudes.
