As usual, since I don’t have a myspace, I don’t know what the fuck is going on… so when Young Widows posted their new video for Old Skin, I didn’t know. I’ve been waiting to post this thing up here.
Old Skin – Young Widows from J.J. Johnstone on Vimeo.
For anyone that wasn’t at the show last Monday, Rattletooth has parted ways with Brendan and signed on Tyler Short (Python). He debuted at the Keswick show on a new song in the midst of a water and beer slip-n-slide. It didn’t take long for blood to get flowing as both singers hit the floor hard at several points and microphone mesh was cutting face flesh.
Duncan owes half the crowd $10 a piece for all of the groin punches that Brendan received.
According to Matt Weider, Frontier(s) has quite a bit going on here in 2009. This summer will see a debut 7″ on No Sleep Records. There will also be “a couple of” releases coming out thanks to the Area Rock Recording Co.
So keep your eyes open and pick this stuff up when it comes out. More info will surely be posted up when it becomes available.
from Deathwish. The first 1000 copies of the 7″ will have awesome limited edition packaging – an outer vellum cover featuring artwork by our pal John Baizley of Baroness with a metallic spot color that lays over a full color printed sleeve. The two layers work together to create the entire image on the front and back. It’s then all inserted in a polysleeve with a fold-over flap and sealed with a silver foil sticker. There are two different colors of vinyl for this edition as well.
I’m sure you’ve all heard (and likely bought your tickets already), but May 1st, 2009 (Derby Eve) will see Guilt & Split Lip reuniting at Headliner’s on Lexington Rd. Also playing will be Young Widows and Frontier(s) – who many of us are hoping will bust out a Falling Forward song or three. Thank you Production Simple.
Tickets are still available (as far as I know) from Ticketweb & Ear X-Tacy, get on it before they sell out!
