apparently in the 70s you could still just throw your garbage out the window of your car while your driving. of course you might make some indian’s cry along the way but…
]]>I’m so stoked, I’ve missed Sleepytime Gorilla Museum the last two times they’ve played in Seattle (both times I was in NY weird) and they play Neumos this Thursday. Seriously one of the best live shows I’ve seen since Neurosis. If you live here you have to go.

Un|Steady is the spot for actual pain in San Diego. And they just moved! Check out the new spot they have a lot of the tees we are sold out of and they will treat you a lot nicer than if you came over to my house to get a shirt. Like for example they probably wear pants and would not be on tons of drugs.
Un|Steady Boutique, 744 G Street Suite 106A, San Diego CA 92101

I added a new King Dude song today, and shipped out a bunch of shirts. Thanks everyone for buying stuff and making me work.
Also we are playing this show with Talk Normal from new york. If you live in Seattle I’d like to see you there!
Talk Normal
There going fast!

ACTUAL PAIN: After only releasing tapes for so long, is weird to put out something on vinyl?
TOBIAS BURCH: It feels great. I released tapes because that’s what I could afford, but I feel very grateful that someone would take the time and money to do an LP of my music.
I really like your artwork on all your releases. Where do you find the source images?
Most of the images are from old books. Both front and back of the LP are old anatomy illustrations.
Visually, and musically, I’m inspired by the time just before the industrial revolution. Right as we were unwrapping the gift that was to be our doom. A time when it took years to travel across the country. So I try to use images that evoke that era.
You seem like a jolly fellow. Would you describe your self as a happy person? Or does all this doom ever just bring you down?
I’m very jolly. I’m not sure I would say happy though. I love to have a good time, but the reality is the world is a very negative place. Here in the NW we live comfortably, but our comfort is constantly teetering on the brink. That dosen’t bother me though, I accept it.

I hate movies with characters who have a prolonged, greying illnesses, normally it’s not fun to watch. Linkeroever (Left Bank) does it right. Along the lines of Rosemary’s Baby Left bank has a funny, gross, and horrific style of portraying a Pagan Cult at it’s worse. Maybe because it’s Belgian, it’s a whole lot scarier than most movies that try and pull off the same thing. To top off the great perfomance by Eline Kuppens as Marie the vomiting, hairy legged athelete (you’ll see, it’s awesome and gross), Director Pieter Van Hees does his best David Lynch impersonation, without directly ripping off any of his movies.
