How does Trail of Dead release an album this past October get by me?! I must be slipping in my old age! I had no idea that they released a new album. Encore, here I come.
Two of my favourite albums ever are being reissued by the always wonderfully smelling Matador Records. These two fucking albums are gems, start to finish. Big day today, big day.
Watch one of the best music videos of all time below, and break up your band.
Laura, Bones and I hit up Kingpin Sunday night for their Lebowskifest. 5 buck cover charge if you come in a bathrobe (we did), for all you can bowl, a free T-Shirt, and the movie at 10pm. 5 buck White Russians all night. Good times. Sweaty.
My excitement level is peaking right now, so much so that its hard to write this post. I just learned that there is a new theatre opening up downtown right where the Hyland Theatre used to me! The Hyland is a legendary place for me as I saw Jurrassic Park, True Lies, Wild Things, and Jackie Brown there, to name only a few.
This place sounds like KWs version of the Alamo Drafthouse, with classic/cult films, and local beerce. I could not be more excited.
I have not been this giddy for a record release in years. Death Waltz just released a 7" record with the three songs used in the greatest film of all time - Sleepaway Camp. I never thought these songs would ever be released, but leave it up to the Waltz to work their magic. They merged with Mondo, and when I first tried to order it it said sold out. I was pretty upset, until I released it was the tri-colour version that was sold out, and not the white version, which is great because I think the white looks way better. This is so huge. So stoked right now. Hurry up mailman!
Here is the link to order a copy, if they have any left.
