Also great is this poster design?
It was created by @swollen_ankle and we love it, you’ll start to see this popping up around town, and we’ll have a limited number of screen printed copies available for purchase
How it started…how it’s going.
As per our last reel here is the original working-artwork for “Calamity” created by our @ben.j.see
You can see a lot of the elements that we ended up using for the Calamity Drive art.
Second is the fantastic art we ended up with from @swi_rl_design
We’re talking album art today.
We love the art and layout for our album created by Scott Cottrell ( @swi_rl_design )
@clerestoryav is the one who hooked us up with him and we’re so glad that it worked out the way it did.
We have a new shirt available on our website and bandcamp stores with the typography work he created for the album.
Got new shirts up on the bandcamp in time for bandcamp friday!
If you preordered they will be shipping out this weekend!
It appears the cat is out of the bag:
The first opener for our album release show @resonant_head is the very lovely, dreamy @wearebrotherboy
.
Stay tuned for more announcements soon!
We’re not going to be at @normanmusicfestival this year with Dan in Michigan and our release show coming up, but you can catch our @ben.j.see playing with @iamlabrys on Friday night!
NMF has always been a special time for us, and we look forward to being back in the future. If you’re in town stop in to guestroom records and pickup the Calamity LP!
Have fun, be safe!
Ben had a lovey time playing solo at @opolispix with @baileyboy.mp3 and @katlockyall
Thanks to everyone for coming out.

In this episode the boys discuss making an album with a more focused voice and clarity of intent.
We’re proud of Calamity and think it has a lot to offer all the way through the track list.
If you’ve listened to the singles, but haven’t made it through the whole album yet, we highly encourage you to dive in.

This clip we talk about our favorite songs to record for this album.

*PREORDER ALERT*
We’ve got some new merch coming down the pipeline and wanted to give you all the opportunity to guarantee you’ll get first pick.
We have a design from @9octop who y’all might know for his work on the @oldbloodnoise dweller and visitor.
We also have a design from @swi_rl_design from our album artwork in a throwback long sleeve
If you wear sizes that aren’t typically available or sell out fast this is a good chance to guarantee you get one as we won’t be able to stock all of these size options normally. This also allows us to cut down on overstock and waste. So don’t delay!
Head to Plainspeakmusic.com to get your order in!

Do you see us more as your favorite bestselling indie-rock band, or your favorite bestselling emo band?
#indierock #emo #music #bestseller
In celebration of our album being out here is a special limited color way of Calamity Drive!
We also wanted to do some good beyond improving your tone with this special release.
15% of each sale will go toward Trans Lifeline, a grassroots hotline and microgrants 501(c)(3) non-profit organization offering direct emotional and financial support to trans people in crisis – for the trans community, by the trans community.
.
If you’ve been keeping an eye on the Calamity Drive you may have noticed that the price increased. This has been coming for a while with increased cost, inflation, and supply chain issues. This increase also allows us more flexibility and the ability to do special runs, and the ability to give to causes that we believe in.
We thank you for your support and understanding.
This is tomorrow
If you’re in the OKC area go show solidarity with these communities and protest the discriminatory policies proposed and enacted by the OK government
Friendly reminder to sign up for the Plain Speak newsletter *ESPECIALLY* if you’re following for pedal stuff
Special announcement coming tomorrow and newsletter will get first bite.
