POST CHANUKAH BLISS / PRE-BING CROSBY CROONING


Neon Windbreaker return for a show with our friends Monotonix on December 12th at Sneaky Dees in Toronto. We just found out that not only are we on the show, but it's an early show at that. Doors at 7PM, we perform at 7:30PM. This will be our final show of 2010. We will be recording the remainder of the month. Look for (seriously) shows outside of Canada in 2011.

Take note that on December 12th, there will be no mercy.

FOR REAL


We're releasing a digital single in December, but it could end up being in January. We're going to have a release party, where you can get a copy of the release in a very unique manner. We said digital just a few sentences ago, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun with it. Tangible parties are better, it's a fact.

FIRST LATHE RECORD.


Our friend just picked up a lathe cutter on Ebay and let us make some limited edition records. The record is limited to 30 one-sided copies and is made with a high quality lathe so that the quality does not degrade over time.

First 10 (tops of plastic containers with a hole in the center)
Second 10 (over sized Pog novelty slammers)
Third 10 (apple/pumpkin pie plates)

The record contains two songs:

1. Yeah, Me Too! I totally love Saetia!
2. American Iconography

TAPE SOLD OUT, THANKS


Thanks to everyone who bought one of the limited edition tapes at the Marnie Stern show. We didn't have any for our show this past Friday with TV Buddhas, which was probably for the best as our drummer went on tour with his other band and we decided to go the freak-folk route, albeit briefly. That being said, new freak-folk tape coming out soon on a new US blog's label.

We don't have any other shows booked at the moment, so we will take the time to write new music, and relish in the fact that EYE Magazine said NICE things about us from our Marnie Stern + DD/MM/YYYY opening slot appearance.

Look out for a split soon on a new label out of Armenia with one of our current favourite bands. They sound nothing like us, so it's an ambitious release for us. Believe the hype, but don't believe the hype too!?

GOOD NEWS, WE'RE PLAYING OUT


We're definitely not played out, we're playing out. We'll have a few shows to announce outside of the show you will read about in a moment, but it's exciting, right?

On Friday October 15th we're playing with TV Buddhas who are from Israel by way of Berlin at The Shop beneath Parts and Labor in Toronto. Cover is $5 and it will be amazing. There will be one more band playing, who will also be amazing. There's a good theme going for the evening.

NYC, Toronto, other cities, we'll see you soon.
