Suburban Home Records

Ninja Gun

We are excited to announce the pre-order for Suburban Home’s latest addition to the family, Ninja Gun. Ninja Gun are from South Georgia, but their home away from home is Gainesville, Florida. Although they share a lot of the qualities of the Gainesville scene, they have more in common with a past Gainesville resident, Tom Petty. Ninja Gun write concise, melodic pop which blends the best of Americana, Southern Classic Rock, and Indie Rock, with a slight Punk influence. I liken their sound to what the Shins might have sounded like if they grew up in the South. The guys are dedicated students of pop craftsmanship, just take a listen to an mp3 from the album, the title track, “Restless Rubes”. I really hope you give this band a chance no matter what kind of music you listen to, I truly believe in this band and think that they offer something for all fans of power pop and rock. If Commercial radio didn’t totally suck, you would hear bands like Ninja Gun on radios everywhere.

We are putting out the album on CD and 2 colors of vinyl (the vinyl, we are co-releasing with Barracuda Sound, the label that Jon from Whiskey and Co runs). The pressing of the vinyl will be split between 2 colors, 300 on opaque Peach and 700 on Transparent Green. We are offering 40 deluxe sets of the Ninja Gun album that contains:

2 copies of the album on vinyl (1 Peach / 1 Transparent Green)
a copy of the album on CD
a Ninja Gun pint glass
a Ninja Gun T-shirt
a Ninja Gun coozie
3 Ninja Gun buttons

All of the above items for only $40. The album is amazing, our very own Geoff Allen did an amazing job on the art, and not that this should matter, but the guys in Ninja Gun are some of the greatest guys on the planet. We have been drinking and hanging out with them this whole week and are gonna be sad when they leave for home.

So please do me a favor and lend an ear, check out the mp3, and listen to a few more songs on their Myspace page.
