Art has landed.

I’m outside of my head to announce that the artwork for the long awaited (at last by us) J /  Q full length is complete.  This was the final grueling obstacle.  It had to be that way.  This album was a labor of love, and true love, as we all know, means an absolute stubborn unwillingness to compromise.  No matter how tiny the detail, it had to be just right.  For better or worse, we are not on anybody’s timeline but our own.  So we were free to pick and poke an prod and adjust and readjust and meditate and revert and pick a little more until we got it just right.

If we’ve learned anything, its that deadlines and limitations can be your friend.

J / Q live in somebody’s basement this Friday 9/30/11

We’re finally hitting the concert circuit.  Alex At Large is back in action and we’re ready to rule.  First stop on the “Complete World Domination Tour 2011” is at some place called Sealbeard’s  somewhere in Allston.  I’d tell you more but I think we’re supposed to keep the locale on the down low.  Keep it on the DL.  We spend more time on the DL than J.D. Drew.  Our whole career has been on the down low.

E-mail us for more info about the show via jslashq@gmail.com  Remember, if you’re an undercover cop, you have to tell us if we ask.  It works for hookers, its got to work for us, right?

Feel so lonely without Q.

If a band puts out an album in the forest, and nobody is around to hear it, do the trees post about it on the Noise Board? 

Too local? 

Ok…What about Lambgoat??  Relapse???  The PRP???? Punknews?????  That super scenester board that I can’t remember the name of right now?????*

I wouldn’t know.  I don’t read any o’ dem shits.

Q just left for tour with Doomriders.  Heading to New Zealand and Australia.  Pretty awesome….for him.  Meanwhile I’m sitting stateside with a fistfull of pud.  Sucks.

Alex is still on the Alex At Large World Honeymoon Tour.  Haven’t heard from him in a couple of weeks…hope he didn’t get eaten by cannibals in the darkest jungles of Mandingo or something…

Still haven’t released the album for mass consumption yet.  Have  you ever met a band less interested in making their material available to the public??  It will come out.  At this point we are still trying to come up with an art concept.  If  you are an artist and would like to come up with a visual representation for this album, please get in touch jslashq@gmail.com and we’ll be happy to hook you up with the tunes for inspiration.  Or you can just pretend you would do it and score an advanced copy of this long awaited masterpiece. 

You’ll be happy to know that we are progressing quite nicely on a follow up ep to the album you have yet to hear.  I’ll be taking a break from my pud to work on some demo’s Q and I roughed out last week while he is down under.  Pretty excited about that.  I feel like we are fabulously productive for a band that has only released two songs…which have been out for almost a year now.  Kind of funny.  Not in a Chevy Chase falling down the stairs kind of way…more like an “I like turtles” kind of funny.  Not really funny.  Sort of sad.  Not really sad.  Sort of ironic.  Don’t you think?

Who would have thought it figures.

*Pitchfork.  That’s it.  I can’t remember when I started forgetting.
