| 02/21/08 - Here's some more info on our newest "signing", Jubilee. Let's cut to the chase Jubilee is a rock n' roll band from Los Angeles, California. "Rebel Hiss" is their first release, and also the first single from their forthcoming debut album. The initial components of this new group being Aaron North on vocals and guitar (Nine Inch Nails, The Icarus Line, Buddyhead dickhead) and Michael Shuman on bass and vocals (Queens of the Stone Age, Wires On Fire, KXLU Program Director dickhead), the band started as a vision of an outlet for these lads to explore other musical avenues than they'd ventured into before. Say What would happen if you mixed The Replacements with The Stone Roses? Neil Young with Blur? Jane's Addiction with Bob Dylan? Creedence Clearwater Revival with The Verve? Maybe it had even already all been done before. But who cares? Cos if it had, then it sure hadn't been done enough. The band's sound was fully realized with the addition of Evan Weiss on guitar and backing vocals (Yet another Wires On Fire dickhead). Now, here's where you either just get really bored, and stop reading, cos any more info is pretty much inconsequential, and could possibly put you to sleep. The music is all that really matters anyway. But, if yer interested in the even jucier tid-bits, then read on my friend Without any sort of scheme to light the world on fire, the band started "jamming" and recording music at their own studio, "Shabbey Road". The approach was so careless, the group hadn't even bothered to work out such minor details as a drummer or even a band name for that matter. But with such a wide assortment of percussively inclined friends always swinging by the studio, the thought of only recording their songs with just one of them seemed inhibiting. By the time the album was more than halfway done, folks such as Carla Azar (Autolux), Josh Freese (Devo, A Perfect Circle, Nine Inch Nails, eh everybody), Kevin Haskins (Bauhaus, Love & Rockets, Tones On Tail), and Josh Homme (Queens Of The Stone Age, Eagles Of Death Metal) had already laid down some heavy skin-pounding And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Other collaborators will reveal themselves upon the album's release Hey, spoilers are just no fun. The group then concluded that because of the positive and inspiring environment centering around this new endeavor celebrating life, that no other name would be appropriate for them than Jubilee. And the first batch of results Jubilee's first 7-inch / cd single, "Rebel Hiss" is already widely available throughout the UK. This digital offering of the tunes has now been handed over to enjoy world-wide. Drumming duties on "Rebel Hiss" were handled by Mr. Josh Freese, and on the 7-inch B-side tune, "Fuzz Are Down" by Sir Loren Humphrey (The Willowz). The band has freshly returned from a very well received tour of the aforementioned British isle, and with another single on the way before summer reaches, the band will tour again soon somewhere else you probably won't be able to see them at. And don't let the extensive cast of drumstick twiddlers on these recordings throw you off the trail here. This is NOT some sort of one-off experiment, or even worse, "side project". This is the real deal champ, and "Rebel Hiss" is just a tiny taste of what's ahead.

We went with it cuz we're easy going like that and immediately put the chap to work. He did a wide variety of things that ranged from watching us day-drink beers to listening to us talk about how cool we are to running the Buddyhead contest page. Well, like all children... our intern grew up, spread his wings, flew from the nest, got married, had kids of his own and started up his own record label called I Hate Rock N' Roll. Ok, he didn't get married and have kids... Hey Matzah, we're proud of you man! And you really couldn't have picked a better time to start a label, what with record sales so high and the stable future of the music industry! Ha, have fun with that one bro! Anyways, here's the skinny you really wanna read.... I Hate Rock N' Roll's first release is a lovely 12 inch record split between Moccasin (who we just signed to Buddyhead about a month ago) and Darker My Love (one of our favorite LA bands to bogart mushrooms from). Looks like at least some of our impeccable taste rubbed off on homeboy! This hot potato is limited to 1,000 hand numbered LPs with custom labels that features two Moccasin songs (one being exclusive), one exclusive eight minute Darker My Love song, and artwork designed by Tim Presley (who also happens to play guitar and sing in Darker My Love). Can you say "HIGHLY COLLECTABLE"? Go on and preview the songs at @ http://www.myspace.com/ihrnr.

The Cassettes 2003 Album (with the rhythm section of Dead Meadow) is NOW on iTunes with BONUS TRACKS! [ ITUNES LINK ] ![]() Read the press release below: The Cassettes - O'er The Mountain "O'er The Mountain" was recorded in 2002 during the last months of The Cassettes original lineup of Shelby Cinca on Guitar/Vocals and the Dead Meadow rhythm section; Steve Kille (Bass) and Stephen McCarty (Drums) with the additional assistance of Jennifer Potter on 2nd Guitar. Finished post-humously when the band in this configuration decided to part ways. These recordings are a culmination of late night sessions between Shelby Cinca and Steve Kille obsessing over Wings, T. Rex, and Badfinger records, creating their own take of inspired and positive rock tunes. Driving songs such as "All The People" and "This Will Pass" with their hopefully Lennon-esque message. Also herein is the rare vocal performance of drummer Stephen McCarty on "Meteor Rock". The opening and closing tracks of "O'er The Mountain" illuminate a prescient vision of what was to come with the mystic country sound that The Cassettes later adopted on the forthcoming double-album "''Neath The Pale Moon" to be released on Buddyhead Nov. 14th, 2006. Conceptually, the prequel of a musical journey that begins with an un-named protagonist through mountainous terrain and enchanted forests. Recorded by Shelby Cinca and lauded as one of his favorite 8-Track recordings he has ever done. Mixed later in the year 2002 by Chad Clark at Silver Sonya and now re-released digitally on Buddyhead after an obscure Italian CD pressing in 2003 on Alice Records. This digital release also contains original demos of Shelby and Steve recorded at the fabled Mystic Gnome Mobile Studios in Arlington, VA at The Stonehenge House. - Buddyhead will be throwing a party / show at the CMJ Music Festival in New York City on November 1st, 2006 @ Lit Lounge.
