Negative Progression has announced their second "little" signing in a little over a month - first Little Yellow Box, now the label has announced that Houston band Little Compass has joined the NPR family. The band is comprised of former members of The Record Time. They'll be recording their debut full-length this fall in Phoenix with Bob Hoag (Jimmy Eat World, Recover, Limbeck). The label says that "if you like bands like The Get Up Kids, Braid or The Promise Ring you will love this band."

Little Compass has their August pretty much booked up throughout the Southwest alongside The Velvet Teen, 80's Combat and more.
