"After years spent putting out records on Thrill Jockey and their own Perishable imprint, Chicago experimental roots-rockers Califone are taking a step in a new direction. Their new album, All My Friends Are Funeral Singers, will be released by Dead Oceans. The follow-up to 2006's Roots and Crowns is out October 6.

The album is a kind of companion piece to Califone frontman Tim Rutili's first feature film, which is also called All My Friends Are Funeral Singers. Rutili plans to submit the movie to festivals in 2010, while the band will play a live soundtrack to the film during their upcoming tour.

From Sub Pop…
“Red Red Meat’s third full-length record, 1995’s Bunny Gets Paid has been out of print and unavailable for the past several years. And, while that’s a genuine shame on the face of it, it also provides a really good excuse for a deluxed-up reissue. In a recent reassessment of Red Red Meat’s catalog on Pitchfork Managing Editor Mark Richardson commented, ‘Having lived with these records for a decade plus now, I can say with confidence that this is Red Red Meat’s best by far. It’s one of the best pure rock records of the 1990s, actually, though it’s not exactly pure.’

We at Sub Pop heartily agree and have been talking about putting together this expanded reissue for the better part of a year now. In this deluxe edition, the original album has been remastered by Red Red Meat’s own Brian Deck and is accompanied by a 7-song 2nd disc of alternate, demo and single versions of album tracks, plus b-sides, covers and a previously unreleased song from the same era (“St. Anthony’s Jawbone”), all put together by the band. And it’s all packaged with expanded and enhanced album art. Bunny Gets Paid is easily one of the high points in the entire Sub Pop catalog (which is no one’s idea of “pure” either…), and we’re exceedingly proud to present it in this new version.”

Pre-Order “Bunny Gets Paid: Deluxe Edition” (Release Date: March 24th, 2009)
