The Copyrights To Release New Collection

Pop-punkers The Copyrights are releasing a new collection called Shit’s Fucked, and CDs will be available directly from the band at Fest 11 this year. The collection compiles tracks from compilation albums, splits, and other one-offs. LPs will be available from It’s Alive Records later this year. Adam Alive, head of It’s Alive records, had this to say about the release:

“The Copyrights have always been thought of as our ‘house band.’ We may not have released every album of theirs on every format, but we’ve released more records of theirs than any other two It’s Alive bands combined. Their list of ‘first times’ with It’s Alive continues to grow. They were our first release, first 7″, first record to go into a second pressing, first band to do more than one release with, first acoustic release, first full length, first 12″, first picture disc, first split LP, first gatefold and now first double LP.

We always knew our 50th release had to be something special done with a band that was special to our label. So here it is, The Copyrights’ Shit’s Fucked double LP/CD 24-song collection of singles, splits and comp tracks from 2004-2010. Originally slated for release in early 2011, here it is finally seeing the light of day at the end of 2012. Like the song says, ‘Shit’s fucked, but what can you do…’”
