Today the new Spoon album came out. It's absolutely great, and I urge you to get out and pick it up. I first caught these guys back in '01 opening for Guided By Voices, and I've been a huge fan ever since. They're on Conan tonight too.
This past weekend was great. On saturday, our drummer Craig stopped by, and we ended up listening to this album after killing a case of beer. It was great to just relax and chat about music other than our own.
Sunday we got back to working on the new Champion Heartache record. I'm finally getting excited, and have a good feeling that it's going to sound like I hoped it would. It's a much more upbeat record with only one slower tune on it. We now have 2 songs completely mixed, and shall continue to work away on the remaining tracks. Within the next month or so we'll be working on some new promo stuff like photos, artwork and a new website.
Here's a taste of that Spoon album: http://www.sendspace.com/file/g5kiwp
