Hello babies.
I discovered the "toro de fuego" or "bou embolat" a long time ago, and
since then, it has haunted my mind. So many dreams. So often, it shows up
in my dreams for no reason at all, walking back and forth, trying to find it's
way. So often, it is the only light in my dream, and if I want to see at all, I
have to follow. Sometimes, I am the toro. It is always scary. Always
confusing. Welcome to one of our new album's central images. More
pictures soon. For now, some news that you might find useful...
LIMITED EDITION COPIES OF THE GUILTY PARTY RAGES ON
While the album will not be properly released for another month, You
my just find it in your hands before then. And in interesting fashion.
It seems like only yesterday that we were bringing Josh Godin into the
Senryu family. An unheard of Knoxville artist who we could very clearly
see was a miraculous talent. Josh came into our family and has since done
countless beautiful pieces for us. His posters, shirt-designs, and album art
concepts have become some of our most memorable trademarks. Since
then, Josh has really come out into the light. We are so proud of him and
his current/pending glory in the world of graphic art.
Along the same lines, we have been lucky enough to tap the talents
of another budding knoxvillian artist, this time to design the (very) limited
edition packaging for
The Guilty Party Rages On. Visual artist Rachel
Brady has agreed to design a set of 10 hollow books(!) that will house
special copies of TGPRO, and include 3 b-sides and a free poster to the
10 of you who can get one. The books are hand-painted, numbered, and
we are so, so very excited to have them! (that is, until we mail them to
YOU).
Because there are only 10 copies, we were a little concerned with
the most fair way to sell them. Obviously, it would be unfair to put them
on sale at a show, because if you live far away, then you have no chance.
Thank goodness for the internet!! We have determined that the only fair
way to sell these is by putting them exclusively for sale online. We will
announce what site we're using to sell them in the next week. After that,
we will set a time to begin taking pre-orders. The hollow books will ship
well before the album's proper release.
We're playing a secret show this weekend. Could there be a book there?
More news soon!!
