>> Staple Currently Writing For A New Album
As 2009 seems to be the year for former Flicker Records bands to return with Staple and Kids In The Way making comebacks (although Nevertheless did just announce their split for the end of the year...), Staple has announced that they are hard at work writing for a new record! In their recent announcement, they also gave some info on how fans can order the new EP they cut this year as well...

"We are currently hard at work writing some new tunes for you all. We are tentatively scheduled to record in December with our good friend and former drummer Grant Beachy from Electric Angel Studios (be sure to check his stuff out at his myspace. He's in our top friends). We're not putting any time limits for a minimum or maximum amount of songs to have ready by then, but instead we're just writing each song until we feel satisfied with it, so if we have 1 song or 100 songs ready by then, then that's how we'll approach how many will get recorded during that session. Thanks for staying in the loop with us and spreading the word about our new music. We've been very encouraged by your responses to it.

Also worth mentioning, we are in the process of overhauling our myspace page, where you will eventually be able to order all music, merchandise, and anything else Staple related directly from the page. We're kicking around new designs and themes right now, as well as planning a tentative photo shoot in the near future. We've been getting a lot of questions about where to buy the new EP at, as well as our older music. For now, if you are interested, send a check made out to Staple at:

Staple
24 W Sandusky St
Mechanicsburg, OH 43044

Prices are as follows:
Gatekeeper EP: $5
Flicker Releases: $12
2003 EP: $5
2002 Full Length: $12

Add $1 per cd for shipping and we'll get them sent out to you.

Thanks!!
The Staples"
