To celebrate Bloodshot Records’ 21st birthday, the Chicago-based label is releasing Bloodshot Six Pack to Go, a limited-edition set of six 7-inch singles on December 4th. The collection features songs with celebratory drink-related themes performed by artists on the roster (Bobby Bare Jr., Banditos, and more) and beyond (Deer Tick, Robert Pollard of Guided By Voices, and more) and comes complete in a full art, never-before-made, six-pack carrying case.

A special 'Chicago' version of the box with a bonus disc is only available direct from the label for a limited time The songs featured include covers of tunes by Merle Haggard, The Pogues, Black Flag and Dead Kennedys which sounds perfect for a Bloodshot release.

“Using our patented Bludshotzening process, we present a collection where punk, country, roots and good times meet. We used only the finest available barley and chops to bring you tunes in the true spirit of celebration. Brewed by the grimy light reflected off the green waters of the Chicago River, there’s a smooth yet spicy ear feel, redolent of feedback, pathos, humor and freshly mown grass. With tasting notes of boysenberry, elderflower, late night diners, shoe leather and an oaky, bitter finish, it’s a sound you’ll savor, listen after listen. ”
