Posted on August 7, 2012 by blacksheepspringfield

Springfield pop-punk supergroup Hospital Job are going to be coming out with their debut full-length album soon, and word on the street is that the album will be released on vinyl through Insubordination Records. From the Insubordination Records facebook page:

The Hospital Job (new band consisting of Luke from the Copyrights) coming in the fall on Insub. Mind = Blown. We haven’t been this excited since Mutiny Pop came out.

They also added that the album is likely to be released in October and the first pressing will feature 100 records on green wax and 200 on mixed marble. Hospital Job, which features Luke McNeill of The Copyrights, recently posted two new tracks supposedly from the upcoming full length onto their bandcamp page. You can stream the two new tracks below. They also have a show coming up at the Poon Lagoon here in Springfield on September 1st.
