We are excited that our good pal John Pena of the amazing Beach Fossils was able to remix "Pure Affection," which, though I am biased is probably one of the best remixes I have heard in recent times. You can check it out at Altered Zones!!!
Also....lookie lookie! Our dates with Reading Rainbow are UP!!!! It will be glorious....we will be like a flying V of post-apocalyptic golden slum gulls...or whatever!
Sorry for not posting in a while! Our US tour was so fun and of course it was great going out there with our pals the Beets! Below is a short but fun film of us in San Diego, enjoying a thrill together.
We are pleased to introduce a new member to the group, Jonathan. We had a great tour with bassist Sam, but due to his many musical roles in many different groups (The Young Sinclairs, Rootstone, Joneski, PLUGGGG, Chopter, and more) our time together has been cut short. Jonathan will be with us for the next dates and is also a key member in The Sad Cobras, Young Sinclairs, and The Missonaries (VA not NYC). If you are at our live shows please welcome him as he is a bassist extraordinaire, a scholar, and a gentleman!
We are also pleased to announce that a new 7" Split will be coming out very shortly with our pals The Super Vacations. For more info check this:
Also we are especially excited about our two upcoming shows with the Raveonettes! Here is a song off their new album that gives me goosebumps.
HAAAY! We have been at home for a bit, practicing, writing and getting pumped for tour! In the meantime we've debuted a new song from our Prisoner EP called "Cog" which you can check out here: http://www.alteredzones.com/posts/1306/eternal-summers-cog/
one day we will shake this "beachy" curse on our head. it's the source of minor frustration.
If you have pre-ordered our Prisoner Vinyl it is on it's way so please be patient. Record presses are finnicky places!
Here is a weird bit of footage of MACRoCk 2011, and a brand new song called "Girls in the City," which features Daniel on some moody Lee Ranaldo/dark wave style vocals. Enjoy!
Been a weird but fun week...last weekend spent with the high voltage Cloud Nothings in DC and Baltimore, and this past weekend in NYC hitting up some of our fave venues and Record Store Day madness. Here are some photos from our show at Glasslands, via Kristen Kim:
SXSW was great....crazy but great! We were psyched to catch A Classic Education, Memoryhouse, Screaming Females, Small Black and Reading Rainbow, but most of all it was nice swimming a pool! Seriously such an underrated activity.
If you didn't know our EP called Prisoner is coming out on April 19th. More details on that soon...with a free download!!!! If you live in NYC please come to our shows on the 15th and 16th so you can grab a copy a little earlier than everyone!
Other than that we are getting ready for our tour out West and back! Vancouver, Seattle, San Francisco, LA, San Diego....we are coming for you!!!!!!! Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, Minneapolis, Fargo...can't wait to finally meet you! Those dates will be posted later this week!
