Welcome
to our favorite local releases post for the month of October!! There are 12
EPs/LPs and two compilations featured here, but believe me when I tell you that
it took quite a bit of work to whittle down the list of potentials even to this
point. As always, the rules are as follows: all records were released during
the month of October by either a local artist or a local record company. They
appear in no particular order and singles and 7" were not included (unless
they were EP length). If I didn't include your release I either didn't like it,
didn't hear it, or one or both of us has the wrong release date. Click the link in the album title for more from each artist. Enjoy!
