Spencer and Merchbot’s band, Triumph of Lethargy Skinned Alive to Death, is celebrating their 10 year anniversary by posting all of the releases up at bandcamp.
At times Dann has played and recorded TOLSATD, and Andrea Zollo is also in the band. Now you have a chance to download all of their albums, and you can name your own price too.
Spencer has also posted some new music up at his bandcamp page, including his April 26 show from Vermillion, in Seattle.
Leslie is going to be on tour playing keyboards for Matt Skiba and the Sekrets. Tour dates are listed in the tour dates section, should be a great time.
We are really moving into the 21st century over here. The Hookers’ self-titled album is now available for easy download over at iTunes. It is also available in cd form in our store. If you are unaware, The Hookers were: Spencer Moody – Vocals, Dann Gallucci – Guitar, Andrea Zollo – Drums, Derek Fudesco – Bass, Brandon Angle – Organ.
Songs on this album include pre-MCD versions of Broken Glass, Officer, and Tell You Brother. As well as What You Need, Crush, Finger Tips, Fire, Devils Blue.
The first pressing, which we were planning on being the only pressing, went quick. We have decided to repress it, so those of you who have not had a chance to pick it up will have a chance. You can pre-order it now, and get the digital download. When they show up we will ship them out.
Many store have them as well, so swing by your local store. If they don’t have it, tell them to get hold of us to order them.
If you are coming to the show in Portland on February 3, we will have copies of the black and the white vinyl available.
We are excited to announce the release of our first new songs in 10 years. This two song 7″ was recorded last summer, in Southern California. We did it all, and it was a blast.
We are selling it in the newly reorganized store, we are also offering it as a digital download. It will be up on iTunes next week.
So on the In Name and Blood CD we worked with Sub Pop to make a pretty involved enhanced experience. This was the year 2000 here. The internet was SLOW. The interactive content used a lot of additional photos from the Death Scene photo shoots. It also contained this video for Bunkhouse.
This year, our favorite robot, Merchbot2000, brings us his second annual christmas record. It is for sale for “name your own price” on bandcamp. I bet after you listen to a sample track or two, you will see that it is well worth paying a few bucks when you download.
I can’t tell who’s drunk, Brewer or the character he’s playing. But somebody’s drunk.
He stays in character through 14 tracks of music and fireside banter, blowing down familiar verses and choruses with spoken asides. Area singers Spencer Moody and Andrea Zollo take turns on the mic, also singing badly. The line is stupid, but listenable. Too many songs in a row gets annoying, but don’t turn it off. Just turn it down. It stays funny that way.

Spencer has been posting some of his videos on Vimeo.
Spencer also has his Old Jail series of paintings up over at Luckyhorse Industries. These two are 18″x24″, watercolor on paper. They come rolled and shipped in a tube.
    
   
So we are getting the new online merch shop ready for the upcoming release of the Every Day I Rise b/w Ball Busters in the Peanut Gallery 7″ sometime in the next few weeks. Right now we are having a sale on shirts, including the Murder City Devils vs The Winner’s Circle pull-over sweatshirt. Perfect for the cold weather.

So if you ever put the RIP cd into a computer you might have seen that it had enhanced content. I believe you would have had to have put it into an OLD PC, but trust me it is there. On it is four video clips from the video for Bear Away that we were doing. The video was never completed.
So here for your viewing pleasure are the four silent movie inspired videos (video clips have no sound).
