UPCOMING FOR 2007

We are hard at work on a new-look Meat Beat Manifesto web site for 2007 to precede the release of the new studio album. As part of this development we will also be launching a new look web store integrated into the site and powered by Music Today with a very special on-line only split 2 CD set of early material from Perennial Divide and Meat Beat Manifesto! More details early in the New Year!

MEAT BEAT MANIFESTO WINS SAN FRANCISCO MUSIC AWARD

Meat Beat Manifesto won the award for best electronic act in the 17th Annual SF Weekly Music Awards. Congratulations Jack!

LATEST ON THE NEW ALBUM

Jack has just about finished recording the album. Last week he had Z-Trip up to the studio to guest on the album. Suffice to say given today's date it is unlikely that the album will now be out in the Spring as we'd hoped but early Summer is very likely!

There have been a ton of questions about the new live CD. Yes, it is only available at the upcoming MBM shows. It is a white label with some personal artwork by the band - they are also numbered. We are holding some back for each show, but I would come to the merchandise booth early because we are only holding about 20/show.

Give us a shout if you have anymore questions.
