not to mention Flight Of the Knife is the INDIE feature on Itunes.
Word peoples! we are psycked!
Scary's new record came out this Tues and the response has been overwhelming.
We know that a project of this magnitude, importance and quality is hard to digest...
even for the most well rounded music fan...
but people are not only digesting it, but coming back for seconds.
Thanks to all of you who purchased the DELUXE box, they all sold out, and we hope that you enjoy our B&G designs.
In other news. Apollo Sunshine SHALL NOISE UPON will be available on vinyl through the Black and Greene & Headless Heroes later this year.
A special version will be made ONLY for Black and Greene webstore, and there are only going to be a couple hundred of them...
so keep your eyes peeled.
Hope everything is groovy wherever you be.
keep it real, keep it cool, keep your pants on.

holy fucking christ.
just flew back from austin... and boi are my arms tired!
my rental car blew a tire during new kids on the block "hangin tough" which is proof that being ironic can potentially kill you.
Black and Greene officially "took over" that city called austin, which rhymes with an even WORSE city. and by "took over" i of course mean put up lots of stickers and got drunk in lots of different places!
thank god...Drug Rug played four amazing shows, scored us free jeans, and then those kids went canoeing! Seriously... those fuckers can paddle like they were on Sub Pop.
Bryan Scary and tears destroyed pretty much anyone with a taste-bud in their mouth's sensors... those kids are tighter than a 3 year old boy's ass.
it's nuts! no it's ass... wait a minute... alright, enough pedophile jokes.
The Shredding Tears opened our showcase, and our minds. left... and then opened up for soundtrack of our lives. btw: why do semi-big bands think they are so cool? hmmm... then opened a window, cause bauer had gas.
i kid.
Anyway, the B&G party was filled with amazing live sets! Viva Viva were amazing. Netherfriends are to 2008, As prince was to 1988 (Analogy... get your SAT shoes back on)
We also had guest sets from some amazing bands: tiny animals and sam champion who were both fucking rad!
We gave away 300 tote bags, and only 100 of them went to people who knew our bands and label! come on you bastards! what the hell!
who rsvps and doesn't show up?
were you people born on a barn?
oh well... go buy one on ebay!
anyway, if i never see another frat boy as long as I live i will be grateful to anyone and everyone!
who's got the taser bro?
