Hello Deathbomb Friends,

A few days ago our friend Felix from Spain (and now the UK) sent us
this photo: http://tinyurl.com/78o5goo We couldn't believe our eyes!
He got a tattoo of the Deathbomb Arc logo on his wrist. Amazing! Leroy
(who most of you know by now is the cat that has taken over as CEO of
Deathbomb) was so touched by this expression of love for the label
that he forced me to add some more free music to our bandcamp page.
With fans like this, Leroy reasoned, we need to be giving back in
every way we can. So, thank Leroy and Felix when you see them for the
free jams noted below.

1. Huge digital update (Black Pus, Drug the Corpse, Foot Village+++)
2. Spectrum Hunter
3. Links to joy
4. Upcoming LA shows


1. Huge digital update (Black Pus, Drug the Corpse, Foot Village+++)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Both the Deathbomb bandcamp page and iTunes have been updated with
some classic Deathbomb releases.

The long out of print Black Pus / Foot Village split 12" is now
available both on bandcamp and iTunes. At bandcamp you can name your
own price (including zero). While the Foot Village tracks have still
been available thanks to Gilgongo's release of 'Fuck the Future 2',
the Black Pus ones have only been available as vinyl rips on bootleg
sites (which we never send complaints to, fyi). So, even if you've
downloaded this elsewhere, its worth grabbing again to get the songs
at their original quality.
Bandcamp: http://deathbombarc.bandcamp.com/album/black-pus-foot-village-split
iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/foot-village-black-pus-split/id496117151

Another long out of print release, Drug the Corpse 'This Sounds
Right', has been added to our bandcamp. This band, from the late 90s,
was an experiment in combining glitch electronics and hardcore. A duo
featuring me (Brian of Foot Village) and Sen Onishi. Grab it at:
http://deathbombarc.bandcamp.com/album/this-sounds-right

Foot Village's "Lovers With Iraqis" 7" is now on iTunes, including 3
bonus remixes by USF, Bobb Bruno, and Yip-Yip.

Also, the Back To The Future The Ride opus 'Tron Legacy' has been
added to iTunes. Still available for free through Deathbomb's site,
this is just in case you would like to throw a little moolah at "the
cause". http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/tron-legacy/id494751553


2. Spectrum Hunter
----------------------------------
Two weeks ago I went to Syncspace and saw the premier of a film called
Spectrum Hunter. Inspired by the surreal environments and abstract
puzzles of early Laserdisc games, this narrative piece by Jon Clark is
one of the most exciting films I've seen in the past few years. While
many artists are working with an early 90s aesthetic lately, Spectrum
Hunter is the first piece I've seen that lends meaningful commentary
to what that unique comment in culture was for kids. The elaborate
props only add to your immersion in the extremely fun and mysterious
film. Combine all this with Leroy's love of DIY filmmaking, and of
course Deathbomb is now carrying the DVD in our webstore. Highly
recommended! Check out this link not only for ordering, but a trailer,
still from the film and more. Also, a delux edition with an artbook is
available as well: http://deathbombarc.bigcartel.com/product/spectrum-hunter-dvd-r-artbook


3. Links to joy
-------------------------
Gang Wizard, after about 4 years of hibernation, is back. Now headed
by Linus Landucci (teenage son of GW founder Mike Landucci), the band
is primarily all members of the Landucci family. They have started a
soundcloud page to share their recent work: http://soundcloud.com/gang-wizard

Jonathan Snipes and William Hutson's score to the documentary 'Room
237' continues to get great exposure, this time in WIRED magazine:
