BASED ON THE DRUM OF DEATH
We’ve already made mention on here about the new Bass Drum of Death record that was announced a little while back, but now we’ve got some artwork to go along with it. Looks good to me, and I’m sure a bunch of teeny-bopping garage punk girls are down with it too [John and Colin are…

FROM BRUSSELS WITH LOVE

Bare Wires just put out a new video yesterday [featuring an all-star cast of a Black Belle, a Sandwitch,…
