Ola comrades and kemosabes,
We are terrible about keeping abreast of our blogging so here is an attempt to keep you up to date with our recent ramblings:
KNW-YR-OWN has released our CD "goodbye/goodluck" that we have been shucking at shows for the last year to the general public. It looks really pretty and is a limited edition silk-screened and letter pressed cover, plus a cool "owners manual" with lyrics, etc... You should be able to get it any outlet that sells music. If your local retailer of records doesn't have it in stock you should order it and tell them what terrible taste they have. Reviews have been coming in. Here are a few if you are interested:

electronic voice phenomenon

tinymixtapes

...and more again

We are kicking off our extra consolated west coast "borrowed gear and solder" tour tonight with old friends The Robot Ate Me at the Che Cafe in San Diego then flying out for 6 shows in 4 days in the Pacific Northwest. Don't forget to tune in on the interweb to our on-air performance on the venerable KEXP radio station at 6pm on Saturday, March 14! We will also be playing a bunch of other dates in southern california over the next few weeks so check our shows thing for more info.

Dave has been secretly stockpiling songs and is planning on recording a new gift machine album sometime this spring. The plan is to record it very quickly, over a few weeks, so you should have this in your hands before you know it.

Also, we still have some copies of the limited edition 4 way split 12" vinyl release with Karl Blau, Nate Ashley, and the Graves. You can also order them direct from PIAPTIK (google it sucker!). This is really cool, colored vinyl and a good listen from a group of our great friends.
ok, more soon....
