Deathbomb Newsletter: Tue Aug 16

[dbom...@gmail.com]

Hello Deathbomb Friends!

Long time no... send newsletter. But I am back now from the month long
tour of UK/EU with Foot Village (plus a rest week) and ready to type.
There will be a tour report soon, but in the meantime here is a
"normal" newsletter for everyone. Lots of cool stuff in the works
though. Captain Ahab will tour UK/EU this November... and yes, when I
say UK, I mean UK. Finally! Early 2012 will see the release of the
rRope triple LP discography. For those of you that don't know, rRope
are the best band from the 90s that you don't know. All the music is
being remastered (it sounds huge). Foot Village will do a short east
coast tour in October. And a bunch more! But like I said, this week's
newsletter is more "normal". That is a word, right?

1. Foot Village / Super Khoumeissa split 12" out now worldwide
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I realize the release date on this has been confusing... different
dates for different regions, presale vs actual release, etc etc. But
now this insane split 12" on Fat Cat is truly out everywhere,
worldwide. If you live in the North America, the most convenient place
to order this is through our own webstore:
http://deathbombarc.bigcartel.com/product/foot-village-super-khoumeissa-split-12-pre-order
and for those outside of North America, it is simplest through the Fat
Cat webstore: http://fat-cat.co.uk/fatcat/release.php?id=363
Distro on this is decent though, so your local record store should
also have copies. BTW, due to the Sony distro building being burned
down in the recent London riots, most of the copies of this record
have also presumably been destroyed. This may be sold out sooner than
expected?

Also, there is a remix contest for the epic, 16+ min Foot Village
contribution to this split. Our favorites will be selected for a
special ATP NJ release we're doing, and all the submissions will be
posted online various places. You can download the stems from both
Impose Magazine: http://www.imposemagazine.com/bytes/foot-village-remix-contest
and the 405: http://thefourohfive.com/news/article/foot-village-remix-competition-win-awesome-prizes
You can send your remixes to dbombarc at gmail


2. last Back To The Future The Ride cassette reminder
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The last Back To The Future The Ride release, 'Gay Wish', is out now
on Bum Tapes. We will have some copies soon, but talking to the label
I found out there aren't many left. If you don't want to wait for us
to get it, you can order directly from the label:
http://bumtapes.blogspot.com/2011/07/back-to-future-ride-gay-wish-c24.html
and you can also hear a track from the release over at Impose:
http://www.imposemagazine.com/bytes/back-to-the-future-the-ride-is-over
and a different track is posted on the BTTFtr tumblr:

3. IE drops full length album this week
------------------------------------------------------------
On Aug 21st, IE will drop a new full length album online. The album is
called 'Choose Your Own Adventure' and you can pay whatever amount you
can afford for it. A song has been leaked from the album here:
