Captain Asshole, that's something to remember. Once heard, the Munich punk rock band stays in your head - but not only because of its name.
Stylistically classified as "Orgcore", based on bands affiliated with punknews.org, the band convinces you with melodic guitars and polyphonic vocals inspired by bands such as The Copyrights, Dear Landlord or Latterman. In 2016, the founding members Buschi, Manu and Max started working on songs for the first time. After drummer Theo joined in the autumn of the same year, the band was fully formed. After their first official show and Buschi's exit, the band continued as a trio and released their debut album "What An Awful Life" in April 2019. Shortly after the first tour through Germany with a small detour to the Netherlands, lead guitarist Basti joined and completed the line-up. The four of them then went on their first US tour with
a successful finish at The Fest in Gainesville, Florida.
The Covid 19 pandemic also had an impact on the band. Several shows and festival appearances had to be cancelled and plans had to be postponed. Not letting this stop
them, Captain Asshole continued working on their sophomore release "Successfully Not Giving Up", recording the album in April 2021. Now the preparations for the 2022
album release are in full swing and Captain Asshole can't wait to thrill new and old fans with even more singalongs and catchy riffs.

PPWR & SHIPPING
A little word on PPWR
Chances are, you’ve already heard of the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, aka PPWR.
As the name suggests, the whole idea is to reduce packaging waste and make us all a little more conscious about our environmental footprint. Which is, obviously, a good thing.
Pressing records, however, is already something of an ecological nightmare — and we haven’t even started talking about the bonkers ways records travel around the world.
Here at Not Sorry, we try to keep things as sensible as possible: we ship in cardboard mailers, use paper-based packing material and non-plastic tape, and usually throw in only a few flyers and stickers. Some records come wrapped in foil, some don’t. We’re pretty sure you know how to recycle these materials — but if you’re unsure, just drop us a line at weare@not-sorry.de and we’ll figure it out together.
Unfortunately, PPWR also comes with a rather massive downside for small businesses like ours: we would need to register and obtain packaging recycling certificates in every single EU country we ship to. The costs and paperwork involved are simply not manageable for us.
So, for the time being, we can only ship to Germany and all non-EU countries worldwide. Sorry about that!
If you’re inside the European Union but outside Germany and there’s a record in our shop that you absolutely need in your life, please don’t give up just yet. Drop us a line at weare@not-sorry.de and we’ll see if we can find a way to get it to you.
