All of the Damien Jurado pre-orders are now at the post office and should be arriving to everyone within a week or so. I think you’ll be amazed by the cover. Ethan ran with the bootleg concept and came up with a bizarre Rorschach-blot inspired collage of Damien images, all done up in a lo-fi bootleg style. All pixelization is intentional and will enhance your listening experience. Trust me. Matthew and I are using our new electronic postage service so your orders will arrive with address verification and printed labels that should speed up delivery times. It also saves us time waiting in line at the post office. Cecil looked a little sad that he didn’t get to talk to me about the Philadelphia Eagles while he put postage on 120 LP boxes. Yes, I know the people at the post office by first name. Don’t you? :::scott:::

Since he lives in Seattle, it’s been a while since I’ve talked to him. Damien’s set was one of the best I’d seen, mixing more of his somber songs with several of his more rocking songs. I encourage you to see the tour if you get the chance.

Check out both the LP and shirt, they look great. Tonight, BTV showcase night at CMJ. Saxon Shore starts at 8pm and will be without drummer since Josh is on tour with Damien, but the more electronic version will be showcased. Joey Sweeney and the Forevertakers will be playing at 9pm. The Trouble with Sweeney is on a bit…Continue reading
