  • 1/2 PRICE OVERSHRUNK - Juniper debut lp from Bandcamp!
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    A few of the copies of Juniper's debut lp were over-shrunk when they were packaged at the pressing plant.

    This means the when the shrink-wrap was applied, and when they heated wrap to shrink it, they left it in the heat a bit too long.

    The result is a lp that plays 100% fine and normal, but with an lp sleeve that usually ends up slightly bent (you can see this in the photos).

    You do occasionally see records like this is in shops, presented as normal, but we don't feel we can charge full price for these - so, if you don't mind a slightly bend cover take advantage of this 1/2 price sale.

    There are only a few copies available.

    On black vinyl, on the FABCOM! label.

lyrics

It’s always fun until someone gets an eye poked out
It’s just a game until the flames burn down the house
Sticks and stones, broken bones, twist and shout
It’s always fun until someone gets an eye poked out

You like to push the little buttons
It’s the reaction that you crave
Maybe you think you’re being funny
But your methods dig your grave
‘Cause it’s gonna be SISS BOOM BAH right in the face
I’m a lover not a fighter but I gotta put you in your place

Some call it a battlefield
A war of hearts you gotta win
Fools drool, jerks hurt
Suckers take it on the chin

It’s all good fun until someone gets an eye poked out
It’s just a game until the flames burn down the house
Sticks and stones, broken bones, twist and shout
It’s all good fun until someone gets an eye put out
It’s all good fun until someone gets an eye put out
It’s always fun until someone gets an eye poked out

about

Juniper image

Juniper New Jersey

Teenager Juniper Shelley has been singing for as long as she (or anyone) can remember.

With the unique mix of punky/poppy songs, and the basement/kitchen sink production style, reverent to ‘60s & ‘70s pop but with a contemporary nod, her resulting debut album is fun, hook filled and constantly surprising.
