some ADAGIO830 news

folks.
... we are back from the ZANN US tour and we can be just thankful to all the people that helped us out w/ a show and gave us a place to stay - special thanks to GRAF ORLOCK for all their work setting up the tour, gave us their VAN and Backline and made this trip awesome. THANK YOU

We also got the preview for teh 4way split LP w/ ZANN/ GHOSTLIMB/ PERTH EXPRESS & TRAINWRECK and it looks great. Adam Hunt did another awesome job and I guess we can ship everything to the pressing plant in the next days.

Brand new is our first split release w/ Robotic Empire - which is the debut full lenght lp by GODS & QUEENS. GODS & QUEENS is a three piece band from Brooklyn/Philadelphia who tried in vain to blatantly steal riffs and song patterns from some of their favorite bands (like HOOVER, LUNGFISH, JUNE OF 44, SPACEMAN 3 and the like)... but failed in every attempt. Instead here are seven songs that resemble nothing of who or what they were intended to be. A few have said it sounds like a low rent, super depressed version of FUGAZI, or QUICKSAND with out the start stop timing." What boils down to is that GODS & QUEENS is playing an abnormally dark blend of indie/shoegazer/whatever-people-want-to-call-it. If you care its people from LickGoldenSky, Versoma etc etc ... We have the vinyl availabe in the next days.

Drowing w/ Our Anchors decided to re record the songs for the upcoming full length - so it get a bit delayed. But I hope we have it out in december 09. I just can tell you the new songs are KILLER.

We got all the stuff for the ORDINATION OF AARON discography together and I guess we gonna ship it to the plant by the end of october. There is alot of stuff to do w/ it - but it will look amazing!!!

Also Constantine Sankathi got most of the stuff together - so its all in progress. The same for teh CHINO HORDE discography LP - which will get remastered etc ... More news later.

FireTeamCharlie sent their recordings and artwork to us ... so if we are lucky it will be ready for christmas ;) Mouthbreather gonna record early spring for a 12" on ADAGIO830 ... and then they will tour europe in September 09 w/ ZANN in europe.

While speaking of touring - GODS & QUEENS and DROWING WITH OUR ANCHORS will be on tour in Europe in APRIL 09
and if you could help w/ a show - PLEASE GET IN TOUCH.

I guess thats it for now
Thanx
robert
