new feature here! IMPORTANT MUSIC NEWS!

- julie street album coming soon??? you heard it here first: industry insiders say the project is 'promising' and will define the second phase of athens junk rock following the implosion of green bean go - the record will be insular and quirky but boast shimmering lofi production, gorgeous multitracked vocals and a clearer sense of emotional purpose than the albums of the first wave such as green bean go's _dinosaur poptronic_ and bern and jamelle bolar's self titled album. the julie street cd is yet untitled and does not have a publisher.

- the sorry sods' sessions for _malamourocking_ have been temporarily postponed to allow the band to recover from illness, personnel changes, and the strain of touring. a statement issued by the band says that this should not be taken as a thinly veiled permanent hiatus and that by the homemade junction festival in mid january they hope to have an introductory ep completed. songs on the table include the previously released "let's cruise" as well as new material that the band says is "light years" beyond that recording: a finished version of "the only one i knew" featuring countrified strings and soft percussion as well as a verse, a new song "got my coffee brewing" which details the damage denial and lies do to relationships, and the cult favorites "testing 1 2 3" and "roare of the lion." no mention was made of any of the band's wider catalogue which includes literally dozens of songs never recorded in any finished form. the band is also considering a name change.

- rumors continue to circulate about sorry sod frontman sid swift's solo project which has been in the works for between four months and four years according to different sources. aside from the previously debuted "crush song" there seem to be no guaranteed songs for this album, but it is still on 21 junk street records' release schedule (date tba)

things are better than they've been in a while! there is much however that can only be recorded on parchment - and really it very much needs this treatment, there is a backlog. i am tired, also.

previous - next
