i have no clue who carries it. I found it at a shop out here in seattle
(wall of sound) right after it came out. I picked it up because of the track
that was on the sub rosa compilation 'underwood'. i know that a while ago
bent crayon had it on their restocked list you may wish to give them a shot.

Been meaning to check that Disc out.  Do you know who carries it?  I can
never find it.

Also, check out their mini-lp "this time it is war" on Hymen records. Best
way I can describe it is:  What skam could have evolved into.  

It is dark sinister, original, dense with very nice beats.  One track on
it is a little dodgy but the record still works.
