Topshelf vs. No Sleep
 
A new website called Topshelf vs. No Sleep has popped up with a countdown timer. Any thoughts on what this could be?

A MERGER.

A tour maybe?

subplotofcrows 04/26/12 09:08 PM
Might be a tour, but this is really interesting.

SoundwaveUproar 04/26/12 09:16 PM
winner? everyone

Sam DeBurns Red 04/26/12 09:24 PM
Holy cows. Too much goodness.

TheDemosRock 04/26/12 09:24 PM
I'm thinking tour..
why do we have to be viral about fucking EVERYTHING nowadays?

StephenYoung 04/26/12 09:28 PM
Merger would make the greatest label of our day.

Because there is literally no better way to market something.

i don't think you know what the word "viral" means.

No Sleep website description on Google says "No Sleep Records / Topshelf Records Merge and form No Shelf Records (JK)..."

Dustin Harkins 04/26/12 09:57 PM
Either a tour or maybe a compilation of sorts? But I dunno why they'd do that.

jackozord 04/26/12 10:00 PM
A competition in which the winner gets to release JADEDPUNKHULK's first recorded collection of spoken word.

ha.

TerrancePryor 04/26/12 10:19 PM
Possibly a great dual label compilation that might be better than the Punk vs Emo compilation.

this is from april fool's day.

i don't think there's any way this could be a merger. thinking a tour, but a 7" series or compilation (or something like that) would be super rad.

ChaseTx 04/26/12 10:59 PM
I checked, the two are indeed 2,995 miles apart

signal to noise 04/26/12 11:16 PM
thought this was already posted. ohhh weeellllll. yeah probably some kind of compilation or other release. not surprising since No Sleep and Run For Cover have teamed up before.

guitarguy211 04/26/12 11:19 PM
Here's an idea I had. You know the GK Tour split where they covered songs by each other? What if they do the same thing--No Sleep bands covering Top Shelf bands and vice versa. That'd be really cool.

I understand what it means multiple years after its inception, when EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE VIRAL :-p

I like this.

therailwayhouse 04/27/12 12:35 AM
I don't know what this is but I'm excited

GetUpAndrew 04/27/12 12:44 AM
A series of splits between NSR's bands and Topshelf's bands.

Fourchordwonder 04/27/12 02:33 AM
I'm hoping for a compilation, like this one:



but curated by Topshelf and No Sleep.

daftpunker45 04/27/12 04:03 AM
Tour + Comp = Awesome Summer.

zachff 04/27/12 04:36 AM
Top Shelf is pregnant with No Sleep's baby.

HeavenResign 04/27/12 04:39 AM
Kevin and Chris are gonna get into a sloppy brawl over who signs Pianos after their contract's up. Which is on that date. To the second.

The website was posted about awhile back, but the countdown timer is new.

InfiniteArms 04/27/12 06:36 AM
A tour or a merger.

Hmmmm

alert=danger 04/27/12 08:45 AM
I'm hoping for a No Sleep/topshelf covers album. That would be cool.

I was thinking that myself. Where bands from both cover each others songs.

Taniam 04/27/12 09:10 AM
Maybe the labels are in a slap bet, and this is just the slap day countdown that no sleep is using to taunt top shelf. Or vice versa I can't tell yet

Yeah I think it would be a very interesting idea. Would love to see it done.

Thomas Nassiff 04/27/12 12:10 PM
lol do people really think a merger is part of the possibilities here?

_veges_ 04/27/12 04:15 PM
I'm kinda confused of what this is because I'd assume it was a collaboration if it didn't seem so competitive. With the "vs." in the title and Chris Hansen posting a video of him having his dog tear apart a topshelf shirt, I'm genuinely confused and excited at the same time

defy_stars 04/27/12 05:03 PM
Tour or compilation album? Both? :-)

LightTheFuse 04/27/12 10:39 PM
I'm thinking a tour/comp/field day competition between both companies bands.

Popcorn 05/03/12 11:13 AM
Clearly they are going to announce a presidential endorsement!
