Just checked it out here at work. Cool stuff! Pepped me up a bit at my boring old job. When it comes out on the 9th, will I have to order it? Will it be on iTunes store? I had to listen to it pretty low volume. I'll give it another listen at home when I can turn it up. Thanks for sharing |

I for one am loving it immensely.Fans of Ghastly Ones will curb their blood thirsty need for horror surf with this tasty release.I personally really dig the super tight drumming going on.The album sounds like a future classic of the genre at hand. —Reverb, It's A Way Of Life! |

Here's one way to order stuff from Dratsylvania. Warning: the exchange rate, dollars to Dratskrugers is kind of horrifying. It's a theme thing, I guess. |

Hey Guys, working on ordering details. It's all kind of new to us, normally we'd just send them out to wanted them but because it's distributed by EMI in Canada, it's a bit of a grey area for us. Best advice I can give you is to get up to Southern Ontario and take us in live! —formerly SvD, bots.... member since 2006. Same game different name! |

Hey all. Thanks so much for checking out the record. It means a hell of a lot to all of us to see so many people liking what they hear!! I don't want to tell people where to shop...but if you want a deal on the record, or need a copy of our 7", they are both available at Interpunk...and I believe they are listed in US dollars. CD Vinyl If you NEED a t-shirt (I wouldn't have any problem with that), they can be ordered from our label. We have a lot of sizes...the biggest being XXL and the smallest medium "girly" t's. http://stereodynamite.bigcartel.com/ Hope this info helps. Again, thanks for checking out the record...and for buying it! Dave von Drat —Dave von Drat |

Huge thanks for sharing and making your music! I am a huge fan of the darker side of surf music and your sound has that catchy dark tune that I absolutely love hearing! I noticed your from Ontario! I have some Rx-7 friends up there and they want me to visit soon. I have many reasons to come up now if you guys play locally up there anywhere...? I have a favorite band (Spiral Beach) that plays around those parts a lot and would like to knock out some shows when I visit of you guys and them along w/ spending time with my friends. Great stuff and thanks again for the links. I bookmarked and am going to order the album tomorrow sometime. BTW: Phantom Chop is my favorite! -Allen |

Guys.. this is a really strong release. I love it.. top to bottom, great sound. It has that eerie horror quality sound with out being depressing or dreary.. does that make any sense? |
