  • We're doing a digital single with Minisnap from New Zealand

    Minisnap features the songwriting skills of Kaye Woodward (vocals, guitar) along with fellow members of ‘The Bats’ Paul Kean (bass, guitar) and Malcolm Grant (drums) plus Marcus Winstanley from The Undercurrents on guitar.

    The Single ‘New Broom’ is a perfect piece of pop, everything that’s great about Flying Nun, full of light and air and brilliantly catchy. We love this song, and think more people should hear it. So we’re helping out by putting their new album ‘Bounce Around’ featuring the single ‘New Broom’ in the shops… We hope you like it too.

  • Minisnap are paying a flying visit to the UK and will play at The Windmill on Friday 26th April.
  • Stolen at The Royal Albert Hall
    The Elgin Room at The Royal Albert Hall is presenting a series of nights called 'Hush', each one hosted by an independent record label. The next one is hosted by us, Pete And The Pirates are playing along with Mathew Sawyer and the Ghosts.

  • We also have our own stage at The Great Escape Festival in Brighton, all the bands on Stolen will be playing at Horatio's Bar on Brighton Pier, Saturday the 17th of May

  • Pete and the Pirates next single 'Knots' is out on the 8th of october available on 7" and download
  • Heres something Dazed wrote about Screaming Tea Party:
    Screaming Tea Party are a band you're gonna think you discovered when you were 13. They pack in snippets of every record you've ever owned, and sound like a sloppy first kiss that precedes a punch in the teeth, without sounding dated or cliched. The 'Party are 2/3 Japanese to 1/3 Italian, and the 3-headed noise beast's songs range from sweet, fuzzy lo-fi (check out 'Death Egg'), to huge, Sonic Youth-esque metal monsters that'll make your skull rattle ('Between Air and Air'). Vocals are shared between the three, and flit between melodious mumbling and 'shit, I've lost my tonsils' screaming; the only way to be heard over guitars this loud.
    Complex and simple, dirty but kind of sweet, we guarantee you'll be seeing (and hearing) a lot more of these guys. Their debut EP, 'Death Egg' is available now on shit-hot-label-of-the-moment, Stolen Recordings. We haven't heard anything this good since... well.. anything. Interview with Koichi here....
