The Records So Far

Here are links to download mp3s of (almost) all the Condominium records to date.  I started to get worried that crummy digital copies were floating around the internet so I figured I'd just post new mp3s made from the masters I have.  Plus I'm pretty sure Warm Home is the only record that's still remotely available anywhere, so for those who've only heard that and were interested in checking out our less good early records, here they are.

Shows

This Saturday will be the last show of our residency at Grumpy's.  We'll be playing with Hasps (http://www.facebook.com/Hasps), which is a new band featuring members of Gay Beast.  It will be cool.  Thanks to everyone who has been coming out to these shows and making it not weird to play in a bar.

We have a couple other shows setup for the next few months:
Saturday, April 21st. two shows:
Record Store Day show at Extreme Noise (407 West Lake St.)
It will be an early show with Daylight Robbery (from Chicago), and we'll be playing a set of all cover songs

later that night, we'll be playing with Daylight Robbery again at The House of Lard.

We'll also be playing with Royal Headache when they're here in early June.  more details to come.

We're planning another Canadian vacation for November, this time up to Toronto. We'll also be playing in Chicago, Pittsburgh, and Muskegon. I'll post more details as things get setup.

The new LP is out now. from Record Executive Troy Malish:

I am leaving the USA tomorrow morning. At this point, if you still want a copy (or copies) and haven't already contacted me, please email me at slidinghills at hotmail dot com before sending a PayPal payment to get confirmation that I will be able to pack/ship your order before I leave. With that said, the following stores and distros will have copies available very soon...

As for wholesale orders, I am down to less than 100 copies of the record. If you want to place a wholesale order, email me and I will get back to you with the details. After tomorrow, it will be a week or so before I can send off any future wholesale orders. In the meantime, Ebullition, Revolver, and Revelation will have copies very soon.

1 = $14.00/$17.50/$24.50

New Record, and Some Shows

Our new 7", called "Gag", is out now on Deer Healer Label. You can order it directly from the label, or else some distros should have copies shortly. We will also have the record for sale at a few shows we're playing this weekend:

Thursday March 18- Madison, WI @ the Wisco w/ the Hussy
Friday March 19- Chicago, IL @ 2123 N Milwaukee w/ Raw Nerve, Manipulation
Saturday March 20- Minneapolis, MN @ $ocial Life w/ Manipulation, Getting Even, Self Interest


$ocial Life is a venue that is too cool for the internet (hence my clever misspelling), so if you want directions, email us and we'll let you know.

We are also planning a short tour out to the East Coast this June. more details to come soon.

here is a write up about the show we played in Milwaukee recently. oh also, we're sold out of live on the radio tapes.

Condominium @ Frank’s Power Plant

March 19, 2009

By Michael Carriere

There is something timeless about a D.I.Y. punk show. As the world seemingly falls apart all around us, I take some comfort in the fact that kids are still wearing studded leather jackets and Minor Threat T-shirts, turning out to support touring hardcore punk bands and wearing their musical influences on their sleeves. In many ways, the time is ripe for a rebirth of such an aesthetic. American hardcore was born during the depths of the early-'80s recession. What will be the soundtrack to our current financial meltdown?

Minneapolis-based Condominium may be the answer to such a timely question. Onstage, the four-piece was able to create an amazing wall of noise that took its cues from such seminal punk bands as Black Flag (the band relies heavily on a series of Greg Ginn-inspired guitar riffs), Void, Flipper and early-'80s Boston acts like Impact Unit, Jerry's Kids and SSD. Condominium succeeds in drawing from the most abrasive elements of hardcore punk in a way that strips the sound of unnecessary baggage, allowing the pure primal energy of the genre to take center stage.
Refreshingly, there is nothing overtly violent or thuggish about the band's take on hardcore. And the young band plays with the intensity and passion of those who have finally discovered a cache of records that speak directly to their feelings of anger and frustration. Despite the almost middle-age status of some of their influences, a sense of the joy of that discovery marks the band's best material.

Other contemporary acts, such as Pissed Jeans and Clockcleaner, have mined similar territory with outstanding results. Yet whereas those bands tend to eschew the outright thrash often associated with the genre, Condominium has taken the hardcore punk mantra of "Shorter, Faster, Louder" to heart. Such an approach to music is incredibly simplistic-though not necessarily in a bad way. By remaining true to the pure form of the sound, as laid out by their predecessors, Condominium reminds us of the reasons why hardcore punk may still be relevant in 21st-century America. If there were ever a time for such a genre, it's now.

Hello Tomorrow

the young and the rich and the beautiful - they have reason, those lucky ones, to wish full records kept of their pleasures and revels, even their follies. How else are they to outwit the enemy they have in common, implacable time? Documents in the form of pictures are their means of stating, each in his own way, "Mark me. Envy me. I was this person in this time and place. And i was happy." Memories of good days fail, or are altered by needs unknown in youth, but what the camera registers and preserves unchanged becomes an earnest of immortality. For it is a fact that the camera's eye is able to stop time; long after the young and the rich and the beautiful are dust, photographs will bestow on them a posthumous existence, shining with promise.


The new Condominium - Hello Tomorrow 7" has arrived and looks great. If you want to listen to a song from the record, click HERE.
