1. The Palm Yard debut Full Length Album entitled "CRAFT NIGHT" is almost finished mixing. OH! is being a real bitch about sounding good so we're up to mix version 2.7 or something. The other 11.5 songs are amazing. It sounds better than we ever were as a band I think... C37 tape due out Valentines Day, with a release show in Santa Cruz somewhere.
2. Whilst you wait for Craft Night, perhaps you'd like to hear what it would sound like if Kanye West fronted a shitgaze band? HERE: palmyeezy.muxtape.com/
3. Last Palm Yard tidbit: We played oakland on sunday as part of a ridiculous 6 band line-up. Some pictures are up here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bignothing1021/sets/72157603572827591/detail/ and a live recording of our FIRST SHOW IN 6 MONTHS will be up on the mediafire this week. www.mediafire.com/1019records ;
4. Other Future tapes: Tyred Eyes/The Groggs split and the very long awaited New Bengal Spice/Hermit Convention split ep will be out in the second half of february. A collection of experimental recordings by Maus Haus will see the light of day in March, along with a split between Batalj of Sweden and Roundabout of Santa Cruz. Dylan from Man/Miracle might be sending us some home recordings to put out, and tape releases have been discussed with The Broads, Green Flash, Mountain Animal Hospital, and probably another band I can't remember right now?
5. Our web presence/personal branding still sucks. This site is being assembled to handle credit/debit/paypal: www.1019records.bigcartel.com and the all-text version of 1019 dot com will become some sort of mail-order service. I really truly dislike computers...been reading this book titled "Our Noise" about Merge recs, the glory days of xeroxing balance sheets and harassing distros by phone for money. Highly recommended.
