in 2022 i took my “Discipline” record (by the Garages) to get framed

my partner is raising money for her new music therapy practice @ an alternative high school in Washington. she’s looking for help purchasing musical instruments to help facilitate songwriting and group music making. we’d both really appreciate it if you donated and/or shared this around! thx! (:
Our monthly roundup of new Fourth Strike music and art is out now on Tumblr! www.tumblr.com/strikefourth...
Happening now!
the Fourth Strike logo featuring the four X variant but done up in a pride scheme. there are four x's stacked 2 by 2. the top left one is a hollow white x, the top right one is a hollow pastel pink x, the bottom left x is a hollow baby blue and the bottom right is solid yellow with a purple outline. at the bottom of the page is the words "fourth strike" in a rainbow gradient font from left to right.
Happy pride from all of us, to all of you.

the good news is, we can tell you which month it is coming out in: august*!
(*barring some unexpected catastrophe 🤞)
we've updated the description for the album on bandcamp. the visible release date still says july—again, that's just the limit at work. it's coming out in august.
hi! we know there's been some excitement over EXPANSION potentially releasing on may 1st. just here to clarify that that date is unfortunately a product of bandcamp limiting how far in advance you can publish a pre-order. the album is definitely not coming out in may.
