Right now, you can get the whole record for only $1.98!! This is one of the best records you've never heard, passed around obsessively through the American DIY underground- brilliant 4-track rock sounds chanelled through the sound of deranged pharmacies, LSD empowered surfers, and a California state ready to sink into the ocean. Go HERE to snatch it, watch the releases page for ordering information and leave some recommendations on Amie St.! April 7, 2008 Standing Nudes LPs are IN! Beautiful "ghost" vinyl with hand-painted, stamped, and numbered chipboard jackets. These come in extremely limited quantity so gets yours over at the RELEASES page while we still have them. Here's a photo of one of our favorite Nudez, Jason celebrating his bounty... March 25, 2008 A really nice look from Gorilla Vs. Bear on our favorite Girls today! Czech IT. The post has an exlusive MP3 download of "God Damned" that was previously only available for stream on their Myspace. YES! Also, Standing Nudes "Ghost Story" jackets and LPs are in. We're going insane over here hand-numbering and hand painting each chip-board jacket with glow in the dark "ghoooooost" paint. The vinyl looks really beautiful and spooky. No pre-order for this, just putting it out there to whoever can snatch it up first. Keep an eye on the store this week. March 12, 2008 That's cool, I guess we are just going to do yearly updates on the news page from now on. So many news in our world, we'll try to be quick! The most immediate news...we got Standing Nudes Lps in!! We're waiting on the jackets but I promise you this is going to be a deeply special version of your beloved Ghost Story album. The vinyl is "ghost" clear, delicately placed inside of uniquely printed and hand-numbered chip-board jackets! We only made 300 and once they're gone, they're gone. Pre-order will go up next week so keep an eye out. Also, we'd like to announce new True Panther sounds brethren GIRLS into the fold! We first saw Christopher Owens shredding guitars and organs with Holy Shit but were blown away with the new intensely beautiful and sincere music of Girls. Listen to some of the tunes here. Look for a 7" ep some time this spring, followed by a full on album sometime in the summer. Already good news from the Girls camp! Some great press and an invitation to the Riviera's prestigious MIDI Music Festival. YES!! The Broken Strings LP is finally at the plant, but now facing a mysterious sampling/clearance issue that's holding up production. HaTeRz try to stop us but they will not succeed! Also, believe it or not the Lemonade/Les Aus split 12" is still on the burners. Les Aus are finally producing their mixed tracks to us during their visit to SXSW which means the record is inevitable. We have some nice artwork to tantalize your taste buds in the meantime..... The big cd drop off is happening this Thursday March 20th at the Delancey in Manhattan NY!! We're having a huge post-SXSW party with Lemonade, Les Aus, Stay High DJ's all night, drink specials, etc June 2, 2007 Standing Nudes CD is out!!!! Check the releases section to order it or get it from Revolver. Writeups in NYLON and TIME OUT NY too! We're still tinkering with the Broken Strings LP but it's on its way. The David Copperfuck 7" is out! Our friend Donnie put it out on his Party Turtle imprint but we have a few copies....get them in the releases section. Also, the San Francisco Bay Guardian was feeling it..thanks! December 1, 2006 Lemonade got written up in last week's SF Weekly! "The percussion crosses continents, the vocals are tangled exclamations" etc. etc. NOT BAD! Read more here October 29, 2006 It's been a while since the last update, but please don't think that we've been slacking off. There's a lot of good news to report and not a lot of bad news but maybe it's because we are all doing ecstacy all of the time to prepare ourselves mentally for the upcoming Lemonade/Les Aus split LP. Lemonade are going to be recording with Dj C.L.A.W.S. this month,and we're doubly lucky to have the magical and talented Arnau design ing cover art. We're hoping to have this done by February of next year. The Standing Nudes 7" charted #17 on WNYU last week. Not half bad for an arena that looks at vinyl like an embarassing, drunk uncle. The 7" is almost sold out so get it now before having to live with shame and regret for the rest of your life. The LP/CD is also forthcoming. Those of you that were lucky enough to snatch the Broken Strings album from the blog will be happy to hear that we're putting it out on CD/LP as soon as possible. Those of you that haven't heard it , please be aware that you're in for a really amazing, sincere and beautiful masterpiece. No Shit! For San Francisco residents, David Copperfuck are playing at Jack's on Saturday with Wildlife and New Thrill Parade, two of our favorite local bands. The 7" should come out in the next few months on Donny's as-of-yet unnamed record label. It's 4 songs recorded by Brian Hamilton (Fleshies) at Sugar Mountain, mastered by Weasel Walter and it RIPS. We also havea 7" split with DiDi Mao coming out on Coco Conk as soon as they get it together. HAPPY HALLOWEEN! July 10, 2006 Hey, to all of you that can't afford the 8 bucks to buy July's Wire magazine to read the Standing Nudes review, we provide it here for you in digital image format. All we ask in exchange is that someone who has ever heard of "Hot Poop" or even has a general idea of what the maniac is trying to say beyond "this record is awesome!!" please get in touch. July 6, 2006 We'd like to formally apologize for the extended absense of a good update despite the overwhleming abundance of good news in the True Panther realitysphere. The Standing Nudes 7" is out and available at their shows and through mailorder on their website Peep this month's Wire for a good review. Way to go Team! The Strip Mall Seizures LP is also done. Blood red vinyl with beautiful 3-color silk-screened cover art. Shit will bust open your head and you will thank them for it! You can get it at their record release show July 16th at Apgar St. Co-op in Oakland. After that, you'll be able to either order it from us or get it from them on tour but watch out because it's super limited to 300. Check their web world for tour dates. Next up on the agenda is a split love match LP with Lemonade from here in beautiful San Francisco and Barcelona's Les Aus Both will drop intercontinental neuvo shredder dub bombs you will want to chew on and swallow and all in time for their September Euro tour with Tussle. YES! For better or worse, the blog is getting updated pretty regularly. We'd like to welcome a couple new contributors into the mix. Chris McVicker and Tony Lowe are new stylish yet orthopedically sound sneakers propping up the swollen and lethargic membrane that comprises our blogosphere presence. Thanks dudes. That's all for now, summer is awesome!!!! April 11, 2006 The Standing Nudes 7"s are IN! 100 precious ones are bunkered down here in San Francisco, and the other 200 have been sent by carrier pigeon to New York. That means that we have a few little bugs to work out with cover art and they will be ready for everyone! You can get your own tomorrow night in New York at the Standing Nudes show at The Delancey. Also, the Strip Mall Seizures record is mastered and will be ready for you by the beginning of next month. Look out for a David Copperfuck CDR in a couple weeks. Natty Dreadlock coming to dinner! February 20th, 2006 We're making some progress here at True Panther. Learning how to make the internet work for us, scraping together funds to put out awesome records, and bloggin' like CRAZY. The Standing Nudes 7" is already at the plant and should be ready for the March 11th release show at the Cake Shop in Manhattan. Here's a glimpse at the prospective cover art. The Strip Mall Seizures LP should be following it shortly. Also, we've got most of the archives figured out for the blog, wherein you can view old posts by clicking on the month they were written, but not on the title of the posts. Keep checking it for secret new sounds and little links and MASSIVE links. January 16th, 2006 True Panther is hibernating in San Francisco's misty womb. Bear with us as this site hatches from its cocoon and reemerges as a semi-functional, semi-coherent portal from which one might be launched into ecstatic musical heights! While I was typing this I almost destroyed part of the code for this very page...shit is that fucking tense right now. Check out the blog in the meantime if you want to know what's really real.
