"Still no proper website - but who cares?"

IMPORTANT NOTE:
BACHELOR RECORDS president The Gimp just came back from the Cinco De Mayo festivies that took place at his favorite Mexican restaurant / strip club. Yes, he has been there most of the month. Of course there has been a lot of work that I had to do in the meanwhile, like handnumbering the new BACHELOR RECORDS releases, bookkeeping, eliminating the vast amount of empty bottles of “Sancho Panza Pina Colada Schnapps” and of course shipping all the orders to distros and customers. The Gimp is just taking a nap, but before he advised me to inform you about the new vinyl records he put out… BATMAN & ROBIN were locked in at the batcave for a whole week, and after “playing games” with ther testicles, they recorded a bunch of songs. Due to the fact that the whole cave is wired, it was able to record them and well, actually four songs are not that bad, so The Gimp decided to put it out. That kid Michael Hacker was once again responsible for the cover artwork, so maybe if you do not dig them tunes, you have some nice comic sleeve to look at.
Now, twice the fun, double the trouble they say, so there is another 7” record out as we speak, the new ROCK AND ROLL ADVENTURE KIDS “Boobies and Rock and Roll, Hot Dog and a Jelly Roll” single. This time not recorded by John Dwyer, but by some other guy, and with very controversial artwork. That all for now, I got to go, its smelly in here, The Gimp is sleeping.
Yours,
Mindy Hecht
(Very private secretary)

PS: If you want to listen to some of the songs, go to this site here, Tom from the USA set this up.
PSS: BEAT BEAT, BOYS CLUB and YOLKS are sold out!!!!

  BATMAN & ROBIN - I'm a bat... I'm a rock and roll animal 7"
OK, now, who would have guessed that this strange and sordid duo would land a hit record? Their debut 7" was well acclaimed by both, critics and music loving folks, so here it is... their second platter! With an exquisite mixture of garage punk and comedy, BATMAN & ROBIN are charming their way into the hearts and homes of everyone. Song titles like "I feel pretty good when smashing other people" or "Gotham City Blues" should lead into a buying decision. If not, you're a loser. Each single comes with an mini zine called "Gotham Gazette" plus a free cut out Batman Schnauz! (thats a moustache you goof.) 500 copies on black wax.

BR-18
 
  BOYS CLUB - 2-D World 7"
They may look a bit geeky but isn’t that just perfect for a lo-fi garage rock / powerpop band??? Right on! This trio from Minneapolis delivers three songs full of lo-fi imperfection and heartaches. Recorded by Brian Hermosillo (THE FEVERS, SKIPPER, THE RETARDOS,...). 500 copies.


BR-17, but its soul doubt SOLD OUT
 
  ROCK AND ROLL ADVENTURE KIDS - Boobies and Rock n Roll, Hot Dog and a Jelly Roll 7"
San Francisco Guardian voted them for best new punk band in 2007, but what do they know.... this is not a punk band. Its rocanrol (TM)!!!!! The two wolf brothers went to a real studio to record two wild and relentless firecrackers that will make you bounce like a rubber ball. According to the cover artwork, 18 or older only on this title please. Fake IDs will be accepted of course.
500 copies on black wax.

BR-16

  BEAT BEAT - Without You 7"
Screen printed sleeve and four demented and harsh garage punk hits from some low-lifes in southern austriah!

  THE MAKEOUTS - Worst Band Ever
In fact this is a misprint, if you look at the cover, its clear that it should be "Worst Looking Band Ever". Three Swedes, masterful engineering, authenic Budget Rock(TM) instruments and cheap liquor result in a distictively new interpretation of the RIP OFFS meet TEENGENERATE sound. One of the four tracks is written by Mark Sultan. You don't know him? You stink!
