"Coming this summer as a joint effort from Asbestos Records, Underground Communique Records, and the nice folks at Skaisdead.com will be an amazing little project that combines our obsession with dead genres and dead formats. Each series will be a set of 6 split 7"s from some of our favorite bands that **gasp** have the audacity to still play ska, and ska influenced punk rock in the year 2010. Available by subscription only, every other month you will receive two brand spanking new 7" records featuring both established, and up and coming acts including Reel Big Fish, Mustard Plug, Big D & the Kids Table, Bomb the Music Industry!, The Slackers, Sonic Boom Six, and more! So get out your dad's old suit, and your mom's old turntable and get stoked for the best 7" club of the year!"

I'm so stoked for this! Justin, the guy who runs Underground Communique, and I took a trip up to Milwaukee earlier this summer for a punk show and he was telling me about getting this together. I've been very impatiently waiting for the official announcement since then.
