Customer Highlight — The Artificial Heart

The Artificial Heart, based in Austin, TX, is set to release their new self-titled LP on sexy red vinyl today! You can grab a copy here (pre-orders will get a copy signed by the band!)

The Artificial Heart is the latest in a line of musical endeavors from Rory Allen Phillips, member and songwriter of bands such as The Impossibles, The Stereo and Slowreader (all Fueled By Ramen Alumni) as well as a producer for bands such as Recover, Young Love, The Higher, Name Taken and Soft.

Rory is joined by former Impossible Craig Tweedy on bass (arguably the best bass player on god’s green earth) with Scott Clapsaddle on guitar (your next guitar hero) with ? holding down the backbeat.

Initially entitled ‘Rory and The Artificial Heart’ the band began playing shows in 2006 and continue to bring the rock even when it’s probably not appropriate.

While cleaning out the extruder after running these records we got a lot of red vinyl excess....well, we just couldn't resist making this vinyl artificial heart for the band.
