AreDate Released: 2/22/2009 Tracks: 11 Sales: 6 Listens: 3 The opening screed in their call for a "global placement of blame", You People point their fingers at everyone on their debut LP, "Are."

On OuiDate Released: 7/25/2009 Tracks: 5 Sales: 4 Listens: 3 A spring tour through Europe sounded like a great idea to the Pool when they set out in March '09, but the tour was beset by issues from day one. When they found themselves trapped in Dijon, France due to a fly-by-night promoter and a broken down van, they decided to make use of the forced downtime to write some new material. And "On Oui" was born. Produced by: Franz Wanderhosen Engineered by: Pierre L'Fuelle Recorded at: Maison de la moutarde Studios |

A Nose for TroubleDate Released: 8/4/2009 Tracks: 12 Sales: 8 Listens: 15 When Pusher decided to rent a house in Laurel Canyon to record their next album, the idea was that they would be inspired in much the same way the Red Hot Chili Peppers were when they recorded their blockbuster album "Blood Sugar Sex Magic". Unfortunately, they didn't have enough money to rent a house, so they rented a mobile home instead and parked it illegally on a street in Glendale, CA. Recorded on a 4-track, A Nose for Trouble is a bacchanalian orgy of musical and personal excess. Enjoy! |
