Weedeater's first album, "And Justice For Y'all", has finally been re-issued by Sleeping Village (with new art http://img265.imageshack.us/i/wecover.jpg/ ) and is now available through us directly ( contact andjusticeforweedeater@yahoo.com ), through Shirt Killer, or through Sleeping Village on myspace...Of course they're all the same price and they won't be around long (we sold a some on the Down tour so there are only about 500 left). But at least for now you have the choice of either getting a copy through one of the above methods or getting doggy-raped on ebay.

Hey all yous,

It took a couple weeks to recover but Weedeater actually made it back in one piece. 70 days is a long time to tour, and we didn't have one day off for the last 39 days of that. Plus Keko was playing with a severed tendon in his pinkie. He is a fucking madman. Despite those obstacles and many others that shouldn't be mentioned, we had an amazing time. Everyone in the Down and Melvins camps were great to us and it felt like we were leaving family at the last show together. Amazing musicians, amazing people, all of you, we THANK YOU for an outstanding tour!! That was some legendary shit for sure. We'd also like to thank all of the fine folks at the shows who supported us via merch, lodging, and through any other means necessary. You are all saints and we couldn't have made it without you, so again, THANKS for everything!! In other news, during January Weedeater will once again be entering Steve Albini's wonderland that is Electrical Audio Studios in Chicago IL. We'll probably do a few shows on the way out and back, so stay tuned for those when they confirm. In March we'll be doing another US headlining tour; we'll have dates and such soon. We'll also be coming over to Europe next summer and hopefully the new album, "Jason The Dragon", will be released by then, though we don't have a solid date for that yet. Lastly, we've just released the 1st ever Weedeater hood. It's simple, elegant, and it's got a fucking zipper. Check it out:

Until next time,

Due to y'all constantly asking us to do so, "Weedzombie", the current tour shirt design (and our myspace pic) by Godmachine, will now be available Oct 1st through Shirt Killer. This version will not have any dates on the back, unlike the limited edition tour shirt. If you want the shirt with dates, you gotta get that one at the shows, and they're almost sold-out so you best hurry. Alright then see you out there, only 9 more shows left until this crazy tour is over! It's been fucking nuts. We love you all.

We are now playing the Town Ballroom in Buffalo NY with The Melvins on Thursday Sept 17th. See you there.

Well, we're almost done with the first half of this thing. Tonight we play Salt Lake, tomorrow Denver, and after that we're gonna do some headlining shows in the south/southwest before we meet up with Down and The Melvins again in Atlanta. Thanks to all the fine folks in both Down and The Melvins camps for making us feel at home, and much thanks to all y'all who have come out to support us so far on this tour, it has been a great time! We also just added a new shirt online at Shirtkiller (also available for a limited time at these shows). You might recognize the caricature by Arik Roper, or you might not. Either way, it's cool as hell and a classic design of ours, so click on the Shirtkiller link beneath our tour dates and check it out. See you at the shows!

After having passport issues we were finally granted access into the fine country of Canada. Set times have changed and tonight we go on 1st, so even though the show is already sold out, you need to get there early if you want to catch us play. Thanks for the support, we love BC! And thanks to the dudes in Fargo and Bismarck that hooked us up with a few last minute shows, it allowed us to get here!

Hey you guys,

We'll be seeing you soon out there and we can't wait! It's been too damn long. We also have a ton of merch with us this time including 5 BRAND NEW shirt designs, one featuring the bad-ass profile artwork by God Machine (and his beard of doom) that so many of you have been talking about. We'll also have that design on a skateboard deck by Ritual, and it looks sick! Just remember to get there early so you can catch our set. Some nights we'll be 1st, some nights we'll be 2nd, so we will be on stage as early as 7pm in many cases. OK until then.

-Weedeater

p.s. for those of you who have been asking, the new album will be recorded this winter by Steve Albini and will be released on Southern Lord next spring.

Yeah "God Luck and Good Speed" has been out for 2 years, but we've only had 1 song from the album on this myspace site so far (Wizard Fight is not the album version). So, for no real reason, here are 2 more songs ("Weedmonkey" and "Alone"). Enjoy.

Hey y'all

After a long hiatus from the live arena, we return in full force ready to support DOWN on their upcoming North American tour. Also joining the bill in support of DOWN on different legs are: THE MELVINS, VOIVOD, DANAVA, and EVIL ARMY. We'll also be doing headlining shows before, after, and in between dates w/DOWN. Check the schedule and get your tickets early. Needless to say, we are stoked beyond belief to be a part of this amazing tour!!! Also, we have just released a brand new shirt design by Ryan Patterson of Coliseum on SHIRT KILLER. Click on the image below the tour dates or on the link below to check it out, and as always, THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!
