Mailorder and Domestic Distro changes

We have changed the rules for mailorder and for domestic distro. Huge changes.

Ebullition is a small company; just Lisa and I. Mailorder has become increasingly time intensive and expensive over the last few years. It isn't cost effective nor is it a good use of our time. Lisa would like more time with her son and family, and I would like more time in my life to pursue other interests. Over the years we have tried to integrate a 3rd person into the Ebullition team, but for various reasons it has never worked out long term. So we decided to make changes that would allow the two of us to run Ebullition without having to spend our entire lives here in this office.

The following changes are massive, and for most mailorder customers it will mean that we are effectively no longer doing mailorder. Domestic Distro customers won't really find many changes.

Here are the major changes.

We now have a $100 minimum order.
We now only have one catalog.
Everyone pays wholesale prices + postage.

We realize that a $100 minimum will be prohibitive for most people. However, for those that can consolidate their orders the final costs will actually be less. So for those of you that can do a $100 order you will find that you will be getting more records and CDs for less money.

For those that can't afford to do a $100 order then I suggest that you mailorder from Interpunk.com, No Idea, Brickwall, Level Plane, Very Mailorder, Revelation, Stick Figure, or any of the dozens and dozens of places that offer mailorder.

Our mailorder service has been shrinking each year. Last year we only did about 4 or 5 mailorders a day. That isn't much. Mailorder is less than 2% of our sales. Our main emphasis is on distributing to stores, other distros, people that sell at shows, and other mailorders.

I started doing mailorder in 1984. I personally did the mailorder until 1994 when Lisa took over doing the mailorder. Leslie, Chris, Brandy, Fil, and Dave all took their turns doing mailorder over the years. We have many customers that have been ordering from us for over 12 years. It has been a pleasure to serve you over these long years.

Hopefully, some of you will still order a few times a year. Perhaps try consolidating your orders with local friends.

In any event, Ebullition will still be doing our distribution. We hope that this change will allow us to enjoy more life and to serve our core customers more efficiently.

Sincerely, Kent McClard

The Ebullition Owl


In November of 2004 I built an owl box in one of the trees that lives in my backyard. An owl family now lives there. I took this photo of one of the owls.

The owl came out during the day because a cat was trying to attack them. The owl came out to protect the family. I chased the cat away. Cats are constantly coming to hunt the owls and wild birds that live in our yard.

Cats should never be allowed to run wild. They kill and taunt wild birds and small animals. If you own a cat please do not let it go outside. Letting your cat go loose is the equivalent of going around with a rifle shooting birds and small animals. If you care about the environment and wild animals then please do not let your cat go outdoors.

Cats are not natural. They are man-made hunters that do not belong in the wild. Wild animals do not know how to deal with them and unless you live in a very rugged place there are no predators to keep the cats under control. In many places in the world cats are decimating the natural habitat. In the USA cats are responsible for a massive decrease in songbird populations. In some states songbirds may go extinct due to the wholesale slaughter being caused by domestic and feral cats.

I also added the framework for a new section called the D.I.Y. Files. Over the course of July I will finish the various pages for the D.I.Y. Files starting with "How To Put Out A Record."

On 5/12/01 I updated the HeartattaCk pages with lots of new info, and I also added a new Tour section.

There are plans to add a message board system, but that could very well be a long way off. It is something that I would like to do, but there are some definite time constraints involved.

If you have any comments or questions, let me know, especially if you are having any problems loading or viewing the site!

Ebullition Releases going out of print!!

When I started Ebullition my original goal was to keep everything in press. That has proved to be too hard, and ultimately a bit silly. I have decided to let a lot of my releases go out of print.

The following list of records will be going out of print. Once they are gone, they will never be repressed. Most items will not sell out anytime soon, but there are a couple of items that won't be around much longer (as well as a few items that are now out of print). Thanks. - Kent

Ebullition Releases for 2K6

The Portraits of Past CD is getting closer to being finished. The actual music is re-mastered and complied. That is ready to go now. The band is just finishing up the artwork and then this discography CD will be finished. It will definitely be out this year!! The total running time of the discography CD is 66 minutes and it includes live and studio tracks.

In addition Ebullition is working on a Downcast CD, and a CD version of the Give Me Back compilation.

There has been some talk of doing a John Henry West discography LP/CD on Ebullition. But there are very little details on this at this point, other than the record will include all their studio tracks, some live material, and two unreleased tracks. Once again, it all depends on when the band finishes the artwork. (Personally, I am starting to doubt this will happen)

There is also a chance that Ebullition will do an Admiral discography CD, though this will probably be a very limited release. Very little details on this release are available at this time, and hell, it might not happen... hard to tell at this point. If I was going to bet on this one I would place my bets on never going to happen. (Personally, I am starting to doubt this will happen)
