Tonic, muddled limes, and a splash of Angostura Aromatic Bitters, over ice. Shook Ones are headed to Southampton and the rest of Europe in just a couple weeks, in support of their soon-to-be-released LP, "The Unquotable A.M.H." I know, I know. Paper & Plastick records will announce a release date soon. Check out a track from the album on their Myspace page. A new LP from Get The Most will drop on React! Records sometime this year. Studio updates and other details coming soon. Blizzard beasts, Black Breath, are making their first US East Coast appearance this May and June. Dates for this won't be released until Neil finishes the promotional tour for his latest collection of sci-fi/erotica short stories. Catch him on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon on Thursday!

As you can see to the right, Shook Ones are hitting the road hard this spring. First the U.S. West Coast with Have Heart, Comadre and Rotting Out, then Europe with Red Tape Parade. The rest of the Legitimate Bros will be visiting the Golden State at the end of April. From the mind of Mark Palm comes the newest Legitimate Bros band, Devotion. The debut LP, Bastard Son Of Affluence Blues, is currently at the mastering plant and will see the light of day sometime this this year. Until then you can peep their blog for updates. Listen to The Crown.

After many consecutive 16-hour days spent at Two Sticks Audio in Seattle, Shook Ones are finishing up a new LP for Paper + Plastick Records, based out of Gainesville, FL. After being mixed by Matt Alison at Atlas Studio in Chicago, it will be released some time in 2009. Sorry for all the droppings of names and places (or 'nouns' to those more educated than their drummer). Speaking of Shook battery, here is what Jimmy had to say about it:

"It's Sunday. I (jimmy) flew back home to Philadelphia on Thursday after finishing up tracking the drums. Bo did his bass tracks on Thursday and Friday. One song was so raging, the bass amp literally caught on fire. So all this left Scott with a lot of time on his hands. Scott used this time to work on his stand up comedy routine and also discover a new found interest in Badgers. So we're about half way through tracking all the songs for the new record. I'm really happy with how things are going. I'm even more excited to play the new songs live. Check back for more videos of us in the studio."

Check out their stupid blog for more info: http://everythingshooks.blogspot.com.

Seattle bantamweights ON have been recording a new 7" to be released in the spring of 2009. Clocking in a just over one song released per three months, their unfeverish work ethic has left them lean and toned. I'd say the combined heft of the band is nearly equivalent to the rotund riffage laid on the new Devotion record. Did we forget to mention that there is a new band popping onto the Legitimatebros roster? Not really, we were just keeping it as mysterious as the singer's reclusive vibe. Devotion. More info on this band, along with yet ANOTHER LegBros addition coming soon..
