Thumper Punk Records is pleased to announce the release of the “Angel City Cafe Benefit Compilation,” an album featuring 30 live recordings of fifteen TPR bands to raise money to support the great Christian music venue Angel City Cafe, in Bellflower, California (https://www.facebook.com/angelcitycafe1). The release celebrates the 20th anniversary of Angel City Cafe, and its outreach ministry to the homeless and underprivileged. Angel City Cafe remains one of the few places where Christian artists share both their craft and their Message. It also provides jobs, and the occasional meal and shelter, for the local homeless. It has roots in the community. It matters.
Participating bands (donating two songs each) include The WAY, The Lonely Revolts, False Idle, Christ’s Sake, Saint Hooligan, Peter118, The Poor Geezers, Ambassadors of Shalom, ABSOLVED, The Hoax, Platoon 1107, A Broken Line, uniSEF, True Liberty and Living Fire. Thumper Punk Records will be hosting its annual TPR Night at Angel City Cafe again this year on July 11, 2015. All profits from this album go to Angel City Cafe. Available for purchase in CD format from the Thumper Punk Records webstore (http://thumperpunkrecords.storenvy.com/collections/35134-all-products/products/12505005-angel-city-cafe-benefit-compilation), and digital versions are available now at the Thumper Punk bandcamp page (https://thumperpunkrecords.bandcamp.com/album/angel-city-cafe-benefit-compilation). Digital versions are also available for purchase through iTunes, AmazonMP3 and the usual suspects. All praise and glory to Him.
Lights To Lights release experimental ambient guitar-based "The Book of Psalms: Chapters 1 - 2511/14/2014 Lights To Lights presents experimental ambient guitar-based music below the recited words of Holy Scripture. Two and a half years in the making, the debut album “The Book of Psalms: Chapters 1-25” contains the first twenty-five Psalms...read in a careful, contemplative manner and backed by original, visceral music which reflects the mood and message of each particular Psalm. Twenty-five songs clocking in at a total of just under 80 minutes, this album is an audio-Bible like no other. Lights To Lights is the solo project of Jimmy Sisco (lead singer/guitarist/bassist for Platoon 1107; lead singer/guitarist for Absolved) who wrote, played, recorded, and produced the album himself. The term "lights to lights" comes from Marine Corps boot camp (Jimmy is a Marine veteran). If a drill instructor is on duty, with the recruits when the lights are turned on in the early morning for Reveille, is there all day with the recruits, and is still there when the lights are turned off at night for Taps, he is on "lights to lights". There was always such an omnipresence regarding that drill instructor. He was there from start to finish with the recruits. Watching. Teaching. Disciplining. Guiding. Always there. God's presence in our lives is like that. There with us as we wake. There with us as we fall asleep. Lights to lights. “The Book of Psalms: Chapters 1-25” is available now via MMLJ Records and can be purchased online at mmljrecords.bandcamp.com or other online digital music stores.

Doug blends rock and blues over a musical foundation rooted in a lifetime of punk rock. Three honest, working class songs that reflect Doug’s own person journey from chaos to clarity through his belief in Jesus Christ. “Miss That Walk” will be available for digital download through Thumper Punk Records and all major digital retailers onDecember 9, 2014. Doug’s previous solo release “God Bless the World, Not Just America” by the band FEAR GOD is also available through the TPR webstore (www.thumperpunkrecords.com). August 30, 2014.

Essential listening for fans of Rancid, UK Subs, and FBS, or for anyone strapping on their boots to face life’s harsh realities. DEAD TO SIN is the band’s follow-up effort to their debut album JESUS RULES, which was jointly released by Thumper Punk Records and Saved Records in August 2012.
