New York’s Rye Coalition returns and is set to release Paid In Full (Ernest Jenning Record Co.), a limited-edition 7-inch single which you can pre-order here. Marking their first new recording in over two decades, Paid In Full is a tribute to artists and friends who the band lost in the last two years.

The 7-inch features covers of two songs: Shellac’s “Wingwalker” (in honor of Steve Albini) and Drive Like Jehu’s “Bullet Train to Vegas” (for Rick Froberg), recorded by Tom Beaujour. No spin, no interpretation,  just the songs the way they were meant to be played. It’s the cover record no one asked for, but it is the one that we needed.

Every copy of Paid In Full is unique, handmade, stamped, numbered and painted on letterpress covers. There will be 100 copies on ink splatter vinyl only available via Bandcamp and EJRC site, along with an additional 400 black vinyl copies.  

All profits from this release will go to Chicago’s Letters Charity, co-founded by Steve Albini and his wife Heather Whinna dedicated to raising money for families in poverty.
