Direct Hit Records
Direct Hit Records was a record label and store based in Dallas, Texas. The record label is notable for releasing early recordings by North Texas musicians who would eventually go on to prominence at a national level ( Darlington (singer) (as the band MESS), Bedhead, Baboon, Brutal Juice, UFOFU, Slowpoke, the Grown-Ups, and Dooms UK). The label went on to release recordings by out-of-Texas artists, including Secession Movement, Malachai and Michael W. Dean, between 1998 and 1999. The label operated in Dallas's Exposition Park from 1989 to 1995. One critic compared the label's early outlook to other prominent record labels and the cities associated with them: "For a few years, it looked as though Direct Hit could have been to Dallas what Sub Pop was to Seattle or Twin/Tone Twin/Tone Records was an independent record label based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, which operated from 1977 until 1994. It was the original home of influential Minnesota bands the Replacements and Soul Asylum ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Direct Hit (band)
Direct Hit! is a Milwaukee-based punk rock band formed in 2007 by singer/guitarist Nick Woods. Its current lineup consists of Nick Woods, Devon Kay, Maura Weaver, Joram Zbichorski, and Logan Stang. History In 2007, while playing with indie rock group The Box Social, Nick Woods had the idea to start a pop punk band that would release music "like comic books," favoring the rapid and consistent release of short EPs over the slow and sporadic traditional approach of full-length records. From 2008-2010, Direct Hit! released a series of five EPs for free online in addition to a split 7-inch with the band Mixtapes before signing to Kind of Like Records. In 2011, Direct Hit! released ''Domesplitter'', their debut full-length which collected ten re-recorded fan favorites from their previous releases. From 2011 to 2013, the band released five more splits before returning to the studio to record their second full-length record, a concept album titled ''Brainless God'', released by Red S ...

It's A Bit Complicated
''It's a Bit Complicated'' is the second album by British band Art Brut. It is the follow-up to their debut album '' Bang Bang Rock & Roll'' and was released on 19 June 2007. It debuted on the UK Albums Chart at #123. Writing and recording ''It's A Bit Complicated'' was recorded at London's Terminal Studios and was produced by Dan Swift (whose other work includes Futureheads, Franz Ferdinand and Snow Patrol), "a more like-minded producer" according to Argos. 'With the first album, we were all still at work and stuff, so we couldn't all be in the studio at the time' Argos says. 'We couldn't really gang up on the producer and do what we wanted'. This time round, the band had more input in the production, though. 'We'd all be there at once so we could gang up on him. We'd say "Do it like this!" You're just more comfortable when you're all there. So, that made it better. In fact, Ian atskillianlived at the studio for a bit. We'd come in and find all these new backing vocals and thi ...
