Idle Hands - Empty Matters 12" LP [coming late 2009] On a trip around Europe in the summer of 2008 we got to catch Idle Hands live at a squat in Mainz, Germany. It was probably the best show we saw during that entire trip and Idle Hands had a big impact on us. Hailing from Munster, Germany, these boys play a mix of classic catchy punk similar to the Buzzcocks but with the more modern dirty/poppy rock of bands like the Marked Men. We are very happy to present you with a 12" comprised of their debut self-titled 7" EP, originally released on Three Chords Records and repressed by Hardware Records, and their "Volatile Matters" 7" EP, originally released on Rockstar Records, all out of Germany, with limited distribution in the US. With this compilation we hope to give people on this side of the Atlantic the opportunity to discover this brilliant band. Please do yourself a favor and also check out their "Postponed" 12" LP, also released by Hardware Records.
