Super excited to get a copy of the new @thepainsofbeing.bsky.social from @slumberlandrecords.bsky.social. I have so many fond memories of this time in my life, not least of which was blasting Pains at my old record store job as frequent as possible 🎵

Nothing new, but all the songs that weren’t on our first LP on vinyl in one place. Saves you the trouble of tracking down long out of print (and pricey) 7” Kurt Cobain’s Cardigan split single! Also available on CD for only $9. @slumberlandrecords.bsky.social keeps it the realest!

Here’s a live clip of me (Kip) singing “C is the Heavenly Option” with Heavenly! Seriously one of the coolest things I’ve ever got to be a part of. My voice is (at least) 2 octaves higher than Calvin’s.
