This is pretty amazing. (click photo for link)
If all of us could commit to buy one $19 package, they would more than meet the $2,500 needed to start pressing the album.
We plan on going for package #5, but that’s just us.

In January of this year Taylor and myself took over this record label. We did more then just slap a new coat of paint on it and call it a day. As vinyl collectors, we want to release music we love on a format we love. With that said, a band that is a personal favorite to us has signed on to give us the extra momentum that we need to become a successful label.
Rocket Heart Records is pleased to announce the first vinyl re-release of Ultimate Fakebook’s ground breaking first album “Electric Kissing Parties”. Pressed on 400 black/100 red, this album will feature original cover art and such songs as; Far, Far Away, Diamond Ring, Downstairs/Arena Rock and the unreleased song Rocket Heart’s On Fire.
This is where we need your help, the fan. We are using the popular Kickstarter program to help fund this project. Instead of thinking of it as a fundraiser, think of it as a pre-order to help reach our goal of $2,500 to press the album. Once we hit our goal amount in 30 days, the record will go to the presses and backers (pre-orders) will receive their copies first.
We have set up 5 easy packages for you to choose from. Please donate the corresponding package amount to place your pre-order.
