Help The Hormones Make A Record
Hi, we're The Hormones. Currently based in Austin, TX., we've been playing old-school punk rock since beginning in Corpus Christi, TX, in 1985. Here's a clip of us in 1996, performing our 1st single, "Sell Out Young."
After a 15-year hiatus, we reformed with a new lineup in 2013 and have been going strong since. Now we would like to release our first new recordings since the '90s, and we need your help.
We will be relaunching the late '70s L.A. punk label White Noise Records - which issued classic records by VOM, The Avengers, and The Controllers, among others - as our own imprint. But we strictly get use of the name and the logo, as well as the art direction services of itx owner, Ronn Spencer, who did the graphic design for US release on Warner Brothers of Never Mind The Bollocks Here's The Sex Pistols. Which means we have to do everything else ourselves, including financing this enterprise.
Which is why we're coming to you, asking that you become an investor. Our plan is to release a quarterly series of singles, beginning with this tune as the 1st A-side hopefully in September. This one's called "Sing," performed here in Houston this past April:

Which means we have to do everything else ourselves, including financing this enterprise.
We have to pay for Ronn's art direction, as well as recording, mixing and mastering by legendary Detroit producer Jim Diamond (The White Stripes, The Dirtbombs, The Sonics, etc.), manufacturing 500 singles apiece, printing of sleeves, etc., etc. And we simply do not have these funds, even gigging as often as we do.
We are asking that you invest in the first two releases in the series, at the least by pre-ordering "Sing" and the next 45, "Julie's In Love" b/w "Burn Victim." We will ship each as they are available. You can also purchase some fantastic premiums at various prices, each featuring the two records. You also will be listed as an executive producer in the inserts. Please specify which premium package you desire when donating.
Thank You,
THE HORMONES
