April 1st
We have a release coming out at the end of the month. Arranged Marriage's Dearly Beloved. Arranged Marriage is Scott Allen and his dad, Brad Allen. They made a really great record together, and it'll be available here on 4/20.
Of course, you can PREORDER IT AT THE QUACK ONLINE STORE and get some FREE Red Shirt Brigade CDs in the process. Woo!
What else? Everyone is writing mode right now! Javelins, The Pop Project and Desktop are all working on new stuff. Exciting!
Oh also! Check out, like, 3 seconds of The Pop Project's "Hearts And Flowers" in this commercial for the Ford Escape! - Zach C.
September 29th
Desktop have a new free online EP to celebrate the physical release of their other free online EP. The DESKTOP EP is available today in physical form (12 inch vinyl with floppy disk), and also available for purchase via online retailers (iTunes, eMusic, Amazon MP3, etc). To celebrate, check out the MY BOO EP. It features Desktop's cover of Ghost Town DJs' 1996 classic, "My Boo" plus two remixes of songs from the DESKTOP EP. "Fired Up" was remixed by one of Keith's groups, Johnny Headband and "Too Much" was remixed by Dave Shettler (Rodriguez, SSM, Koufax). - Zach C.

"Totally Awesome (Demo)" - The Next-Door Neighbors
This demo was recorded in 2004 for the purposes of teaching The Next Door Neighbors all the parts to the songs. I'm playing pretty much everything, except for the synth line, which is Darin. The point was just to get the ideas across, which is why I didn't care that there are some significant drum stumbles. The lyrical concept for this song, about how great it would be to turn into a butterfly, was Darin's idea. When we were "brainstorming" for the lyrics, I typed out notes of our basic idea for the song, as a reference point, not intended to be actual lyrics: "I was a worm, now I'm awesome. Awesome." Somehow, this ended up being the chorus to the song, and somehow it works. After The Next Door Neighbors' demise as a live band, The Pop Project made this song its own, with a few changes. - Dave

"(These) Hands (Will Strangle You)" - Army / Navy
This track has another of Denis's brilliant song titles. I wrote this when I was feeling fed up with all the bullshit that comes along with being in a band and knowing people in bands and hanging out with bands and listening to bands - you can probably tell. But here I am, still in a band so I guess that tells you something. I still haven't gotten any play because of it, but there are good parts, you know, like spending long hours in the car with the same people and sitting around in half-empty coffeehouses not even being able to smoke cigarettes while listening to some asshole cover Eve6 on an out of tune Peavey Raptor. So yeah, all the right reasons. - Chris
