The day we in the band have been looking forward to for so long is finally
here! Our new record, Don't Steal My Night Vision, is available in stores for
you to buy TODAY!
If you're in the New England area, stop by any Newbury Comics location and
pick up a hard copy. It's not available to order on their site just yet, but will be soon.
Or, if you have little patience, you can buy the album digitally through iTunes,
Amazon, or eMusic.
Either way, your support of us is greatly appreciated. Also, please send this
message on to any you think might be interested. We could be your cousin's
favorite band, but she doesn't even know that yet. Let's help each other out
here.
So, the next step for you is to listen to the record a bunch of times and
memorize the songs and sing them with us at our record release show, THIS
FRIDAY (March 13th) at the Paradise in Boston, MA. You can test your luck and get
tickets that night, or play
it safe and by them right now. I play things safe.
Keeps it safer, you know? Oh - and kids love Facebook. Here's
the Facebook event page for the show. This show really is going to be amazing.
Also, check out this Friday's Boston Herald and this Thursday's Boston
Phoenix - we'll be in 'em.
Ok - that's about it! This is one of the biggest weeks this band has ever
encountered, and we're so happy and excited for you to hear what we've been
working so hard (and long) on.
See you Friday,

TAXPAYER

The first single from our new album is available on iTunes today!

It's called "We Have Arrived," and it has a B-side that isn't on the album, called "Warm Shelter and Clothes."

Click here to buy it!

Tickets are on sale for Don't Steal My Night Vision's release show. It's going to be amazing. Bon Savants and Age Rings are playing with us, both of which we have never played with before (which seems really strange to me). Regardless, it's going to be amazing. Our first time headlining the Paradise, and we couldn't be more excited.

We've created a Facebook event page for it, so go there and let us know you're coming. Click here.

Oh yeah - tickets. Get them here.

YES.

So much stuff on going on for us these days. First of all, our brand new full-length album has a release date! Don't Steal My Night Vision will be released online and in stores via Lunch Records on Tuesday, March 10!!! We have put so much time and energy into this album that it's almost hard to believe it's finally coming out. Two weeks before the album comes out (February 24th), the first single from the album will be released digitally on iTunes. The first single is We Have Arrived (the song this is currently playing on this site), and it's B side is a song that's not on the album, Warm Shelter and Clothes. Expect two more such occurances in the coming year.

Another big piece of news - the record release show has been announced, and tickets are on sale! On Friday, March 13, we will take over the Paradise in Boston, MA with two of Boston's best; Bon Savants and Age Rings. We are beyond excited for this show and to be playing with these bands. So, why not just get your tickets now?

Also, we've got a brand new site. Check it out. We'll be adding to it, and are working on "The Story" section, where we'll chronicle the making of our new album, giving sneak peaks into our process and also providing you with some early demos of the songs.

We have a Facebook page now.

If you're on Facebook, make sure to become our "Fan."
