synchronicity II

So as i await my fiance' to get home from the office so we can shlep our child to a dinner party, I figured I could sit at my mac, and literally hear myself begin to get fatter. I am having a lot of trouble with dieting; (i suck at it) and according to my shrink, it is causing me a lot of unnecessary anxiety. I am having visions of walking down the isle next year looking like Jeff Garlin. Ah well, lets talk records!

Earlimart is one of my favorite bands from LA. 'Treble and Tremble' is definitely their magnum opus and i highly recommend everyone picking it up. I have seen them about 5 times in the last couple years, and they get so much better every time.

Here is a picture of Aaron and myself taken a couple months back at Spaceland in Silverlake.


Here is a couple great 7" that they have released. 'Questions and Answers' was a limited EP released by Suicide Squeeze records a couple years back. The 2nd 7" is a teaser EP released by MajorDomo for the Hymn and Her LP titled 'Songs For' and is limited to 1000 copies.


Wanna talk an amazing 7"? The debut self-released EP (Tommy Gun Records) was released this year by Jeff Hershey and The Heartbeats. If you are reading this I am sure you are aware of the talent/local legend that is Yoon. Here is a picture of the 7" (pressing limited to 300) along with THE MOTHER FUCKING TEST PRESSING that Jeff was rad enough to give me. I love Jeff, and if you met him, there is not a doubt in my mind that you would leave your family for a shot to get into his pants.
