A lot to relate here, will organize for easy digestion and reading pleasures::

*BLACK TAR PROPHECIES VOL 4

The Black Tar Prophecies series revived!!! BTP vol 4 will be out in April or May next year. Naturally, it'll be a vinyl-only (for now), decadently packaged (rad) sort of jam.


*BLACK TAR PROPHECIES 1,2,& 3 VINYL PRESSING

A subject of frequent inquiry addressed!! The full BTP 1,2,3 record finally pressed on a single LP. Will be available around the same time as the new volume 4.


*BURDEN OF HOPE/REDLIGHT REPRESSED:


The first 2 Grails records have been remastered by Carl Saff (sound WAY better - thanks, Carl), currently being repressed by Robotic Empire, to be housed in the heavy Stoughton jackets that everybody's crazy about. More details on these soon.


*NEW FULL LENGTH

Sept 2010.


*SHOWS

Will resume next year. Some Euro/UK dates in May. US dates to follow.

Also -- US booking now handled by John Chavez/Ground Control Touring; inquiries directed to: john(at)groundcontroltouring(dot)com

  In defiance of long-standing failure wishes, "Acid Rain" has been seen! - Furthermore, and even more than that I think,, it has somehow provoked a small flurry of academic analyzation! -- Apparently there is someone out there or up there who is either paying attention or at least pretending to care in some sort of semi-insidious attempt to lead us to (potentially bogus) self-actualization,, ala Michael Douglas in 'the Game'... - here are some examples of the paper trail we're following:
