Long winded post about a small run of records. So a decade or so ago, the Melvins and myself launched a series of 12” records called the “Sugar Daddy Series” that were split/shared records with other bands the Melvins were influenced/inspired by. It ended up being like 13 records in all and included a ton of greats like the Butthole Surfers, U-men, Killdozer, Napalm Death and many more. The first released was to be with mpls legends, the Cows. Well, when the records showed up, through whatever miscommunication long since lost in time, what were waiting for me were 7”s. I already had the 12” sleeves printed, and expensive specialty bags sitting here, and I couldn’t use 7”s. Their existence would confuse folks as the series hadn’t even been established yet. So the manufacturer agreed to have them destroyed. Fast forward a decade and I’m over chatting with the fine folks at Noiseland MFG (I still work with them regularly) and it’s mentioned that 150 of the fuck up 7”s survived the purge and were found buried in the warehouse, and asked did I want them?! Bam! Sugar Daddy Disaster 7” is born out of the boredom of waiting 10 months for current projects to get pressed. I found the same style specialty vinyl bags, and did a new take on the original sleeve design by Mackie Osborne , had ‘em screen printed by the speedy Boxy Mouse MFG, and then added a rubber stamp cut print of a Sugar Daddy’s Sack (of dough). As a mini Sugar Daddy relic tchotchke thang, they came out really cool! So we’ll kick off the new year by throwing these online Jan 2. I’ve even got a variant of 10 printed on pink paper I’m bringing to Fresno Jan 8!
