WHHOAAA!!! MEGA POST!!!!

 

So I got caught up with real life and didn’t have the time to update this the way i wanted to.  So, here’s my attempt to make up for lost time and hopefully try to keep up with this more regularly, which I’d like to.  The following is a summation of all the ish that’s interested me since the last post.

Mount Eerie releases two new albums and continues to tour:

- The first album is titled “Lost Wisdom”. The album features Julie Doiron and Fred Squire, who Elverum toured with around the time of recording the album.

- The second album is the vinyl version of “Dawn”. The album includes songs Elverum wrote during a secluded stay in a Norway cabin in 2002/2003. Unlike the previous few albums, “Dawn” features just singing and guitar. Later in 2008, another version of this album will be available, a CD and book, further giving us a look into is 2002/2003 cabin stay.

Chad Vickery releases “Sleeptalker” album:

- Artist Chad Vickery has released a cassette titled “Sleeptalker”, which is a work that includes recordings of himself talking in his sleep, a collection of several months edited to highlight the actual talking, with accompanying music also done by Chad. The art and packaging is done by Peter J. Brant of Ben and Bruno. It is a fantastic piece and is limited to 50 copies. I’m not sure if these are still available at the time of this post, but I highly recommend picking up a copy. To find out if these are still available and purchase a copy, email Chad at chadvicker@gmail.com.
