Stock Update
If you have been itching to get your hands on the Casiotone for the Painfully Alone/Foot Foot split single, you are in luck. We just got a package with about 30 copies from our distributor. So it's back in our store.
Unfortunately the Barr/This Song is a Mess... Split single is out of stock for the time being. I might be in California this summer where I will pick some up from our storage warehouse (my mom's garage). Until then I don't have any here in Brooklyn.
Also we are running low on Moth Drakula/Yellow Swans "They Do Not Always Remember" CD. I have 2 in my possession here in Brooklyn. So if you've been waiting on this, please just order it because it probably won't be back in stock until spring.
As for Foot Foot "Snaggle and Buck" CD's I have about 5 left. I can't say if I have any more back home. I remember last time I checked in with the band they didn't have very many left. We will probably not be repressing this on CD (although possibly a vinyl re-issue at one point has been discussed). You can however pick it up digitally from iTunes, emusic, and Amazon. Still my favorite most fan-boy release and the proudest moment I have with oedipus so far. This is probably one of my personal all time albums.

We are back. Sort of...not really
So it's been a long time wince we have posted anything on our web blog. To tell you the truth Oedipus isn't really a functioning label anymore. Unlike the website says, we do not live in Long Beach anymore, but now reside in beautiful Brooklyn, NY. We also don't have any plans to release anything new in the near future.
We recently also moved apartments in Brooklyn and with it a lot of our back stock went into temporary storage. Now we have it and will start shipping orders that are backed up as far as January (so sorry guys). I will be adding goodies to each package to make it up.
Does this mean the label is dead? No not really. We just don't have any immediate plans of releasing anything. Perhaps maybe at one point putting the all of our CD releases on vinyl. we don't know for now.
So please, go ahead and order from us. I will also be updating the store soon with more or a real what's in stock kind of thing. If you have any questions, feel free to drop us an e mail. Thanks!

More Foot Foot News!
So our favorite porch country Californians Foot Foot have been racking up the good reviews this week. Trumpet will be a hit, so I suggest ya'll join the party! Check out what people are saying about this
"Brown’s singing gives an appealing roughness to delicately phrased poetry, amplifying the naturalistic imagery in the lyrics and making it more concrete."-PopMatters.com

"With this album, Foot Foot seems to have successfully trapped a piece of time--a time when music was not just for ass-shaking, but self-reflection down by the pond."-URB Magazine

Also, for all you tech savvy friends, you can now buy the album off of iTunes. Just go to the itunes store and search for "Foot Foot Trumpet"

Store Down Until Further Notice.
Sorry guys, but because we still haven't received any type of information on when our stuff is coming from California (we're getting a deal from a moving company, but we're on stand-by kind of thing).
So the store is closed, and I'm issuing refunds to anyone who ordered in the last month and a half or so.
HOWEVER, you can order our stuff through places like
Hardly Core Distro
Tomentosa Records
Robotic Empire
Also, our releases are distributed by Revolver and Carrot Top distribution, so go to your local record store and ask for any of our releases and they should be able to order them with no problems.
thanks, and I'll keep you posted on hen the Oedipus Store opens again.

P-Town Love!
Greeting to everyone.
So Pat and have begun our lives here in a basement apartment in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn. It will still be a while before we receive Oedipus stock, so please do not order from us for now!
However, in the new issue of Dazed Magazine, Mr. Zac Pennington of the ever so brilliant Parenthetical Girls gives big ups to the city of Portland, OR. As much as we love and miss our second favorite west coast city, the most awesome part of the article for us is really when he gives big props to Au. Oedipus bands showing Oedipus bands love always makes us super happy. So without further adieu, check out the article here
