Screaming Females and Shellshag Tour Update

noreply@blogger.com (Joe Steinhardt) — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 13:13:00 +0000

BlankTV just posted an awesome video update from Screaming Females where the start of their tour met up with the end of Shellshags.

Noun - Holy Hell CD - out June 15th

noreply@blogger.com (Joe Steinhardt) — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 17:09:00 +0000

We've been anxiously sitting on this news for a while now, but in June we are going to be releasing a full length from Noun, the solo project of Marissa Paternoster from Screaming Females. She's spent the last year or so recording it and the end result is nothing short of epic.

Listen to the title track of the new album, Holy Hell, on her myspace, and come see her play with a full band April 25th at Mercury Lounge with a bunch of other Don Giovanni bands.

Byrds of Paradise 7"

noreply@blogger.com (Joe Steinhardt) — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 18:45:00 +0000

We're really happy to announce that Brooklyn's Byrds of Paradise are going to be doing a 7" on Don Giovanni Records.

The single, titled "Omega Man," is being recorded as we speak for a release sometime in the early summer.

Byrds of Paradise are a relatively new band formed from members of Dustheads, The Mongoloids, but not really sounding anything like either. You can hear a recently posted song from their debut 7" on Wild World Records on their myspace.

Thank you to everyone (all 700!! of you) who came out to our showcase on Saturday. It was a huge success and it was amazing seeing all of our friends playing at the bowery ballroom to a sold out crowd without any sort of reunions, special guests, or other gimmicks. It was just as great seeing all of our friends in the crowd.

Here's some video:
