Looking forward to connecting with our community on the road very soon, playing these songs from BEAR; here’s some footage of us tracking KEEPING SCORE w/ Kurt Ballou! Fun fact: this song was what we each tracked first on our respective instruments. Fitting that it ended up being the album opener.

Friendship Commanders @fcommanders.bsky.social · 02/02/2026

Thank you all for listening to DEAD & DISCARDED GIRLS! Been amazing to watch this song connect with so many people, especially in this weird moment none of us signed up for.

To mark the anniversary of DAVE, released on February 12, 2016, all vinyl orders placed with us between now and the end of Feb will include a free copy of that project on black 12” vinyl! Self recorded and produced, a work of punk ethos and grit.

Friendship Commanders @fcommanders.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

The body of work written in a very brief period of time (6 weeks, maybe?) is what became the album. The subject of friendship and human dynamics in general remains a throughline in our work and her writing. We’re aware there are folks who have been with us since then, & we can’t thank you enough.

120

Friendship Commanders @fcommanders.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

The first had some of the same songs, but not all, and didn’t accurately reflect the moment we were actually living through. It was scrapped, and Buick set about documenting some of the discomfort she was experiencing within the vast canon of friendship.
