Pirates Press has two new record updates this week.

First, The Gamblers will soon release their second 7" single, "Boom! Boom!" The project is described as a boss reggae outlet from Mark of Booze & Glory. The b-side is a cover of "Sufferer," originally by The Kingstonians.

The 7" releases this month, on Jan. 28.

Second, the debut album from The Drowns, View From The Bottom, has been re-mastered and re-pressed, with Jack Endino handlining the remaster. It comes out on March 7. The band is still going strong seven years after its initial release, with the same lineup, plus guitarist Christian Martucci. The band will be on tour in the US and UK this year.
