Castle Face Records is a San Francisco record label started by John Dwyer (the force of nature behind Thee Oh Sees and formerly of Coachwhips and Pink And Brown) with Brian Lee Hughes and Matt Jones. Now that the rest of the world knows about Thee Oh Sees, Ty Segall, and The Fresh & Onlys, it's not quite a hometown secret, but Castle Face started as a way for Dwyer to put out his friends' records he enjoyed. These days, the tight-knit scene in San Francisco has been especially prolific and fertile and it's grown and mutated into a sort of family. Matt Jones says "covering in its entirety sounded like a great idea, and since we had already planned a label wide sleepover it just felt right. If you listen closely you can hear that most of the percussion is the sound of popcorn kernels and empty nitrous canisters being shaken in the box my digital delay came in."
