Hello Deathbomb Friends!

IF YOU WOULD LIKE THIS WEEKLY NEWSLETTER SENT TO YOUR EMAIL, PLEASE SIGN UP AT http://deathbombarc.com

This week is batdump crazy. Amazing. The Upset the Rhythm fests his California. We'll have copies of Anti-Magic in hand. The distro got a bunch of incredible stuff (tik///tik's vinyl debut!), and its goes on and on. Meanwhile, the 4th has come and past but in my neighborhood people are still blowing stuff up all night long. I'm writing this the night before sending it out and sorta in dread of the Michael Jackson memorial going down here tomorrow. I'll just make sure not to leave the house.

2. Anti-Magic update
-------------------------
While the good news is that we'll have copies of Foot Village's "Anti Magic" on cd for these UTR shows, unfortunatly the vinyl version has been delayed due to the pressing plant running way behind. This means that the release party at Origami is being postponed. Both The Urxed and Foot Village will perform at the postponed event. We should have the new date in next weeks newsletter. Sorry about this folks!
Also, just got an email from Cristopher Cichocki that his music video for the actual song "Anti-Magic" is 99% done. Time allowing, we will debut it at the Upset The Rhythm showcase in LA!

4. New in the distro
----------------------------
Anni Rossi & Whitman collab 10"
This record is a collaboration between Anni Rossi (on 4AD) and Whitman that was recorded back in 2004 in small rooms in both Riverside and Valencia, California on a cassette four-track and until now has only been released as a very limited cd-r. This is a collection of seven songs that were written together by both artists; both lyrically and musically. However, it may not be what you’d expect to come from these two artists, as this record stands on it’s own and sounds very different from the previous work of either artist. The songs range anywhere from mellow ballads lead by guitar, viola and even piano, to upbeat chants driven by junkyard percussion.They come housed in white record sleeves with beautiful artwork by Kristina Collantes hand screened in burgundy ink.

Black Pus
zero: the ultimate beatoff cd
After a series of CDrs and limited vinyl releases, Black Pus (Brian C of Lightning Bolt's solo insanity) releases its first pro pressed cd. While recent Black Pus releases showed the act moving into more and more song/pop/grunge territory, this disc is a return to the early compositional mood. Relentless and incredibly layered (you want to hear lots of drums? you got it.) and packaged in a ton of awesome handscreened art. A must.

tik///tik / naomi split 7"
Long long overdue debut vinyl for THE tik///tik. Deathbomb and tik///tik have a long history that hopefully you have followed, but either way, now is the time to grab a part of history. Not noise. Not industrial. Not noiserock. Not glitchcore. Slightly pop vocal dreamboat. This will be gone instantly.

Rose Quartz mp3 blog, which is up there with 20 Jazz Funk Greats, posted a track from Universal Studios Florida. This band is coming to LA with Alaskas later this summer. I posted a different mp3 link from them a few weeks back. This one rules just as hard. Check it out and get hyped for their tour! http://rosequartz.blogspot.com/2009/07/moon-bungalow.html
