They're playing a week's worth of shows in San Francisco April 16-20th.

Wish they'd come to Austin sometime. They always leave us out of their tour cities.

Found out something interesting

The preacher's speech on Static is actually a woman's voice slowed down.

If you speed it up about 17% you can hear how it originally sounded.

That is strange, that truly sounds like a man's voice. I wonder why GS!BE did that. Well I guess this is a testament to the fact that men are the only ones that can preach, for even the women have a fragment of men within them /satiric_prejudice_bullsh!t

Interesting fact! Makes a lot of sense, the voice always sounded really strange to me.

Just got my tickets for the fall tour. FINALLY.

I got to see ASMZ in February now GY!BE in October. I'm so excited.

Caught these guys at Coachella. I'm ashamed to admit that I had not checked them out previously. They were amazing. Exactly the kind of stuff I love - atmospheric and ominous, slow build ups to crashing cresendos. They turned off the stage lights and side of stage screens and projected film over the stage from the sound booth. Loved it.

Mother of god...

I'm not expecting it to be on the level of RYSFLATH but even Yanqui's worst moments were 1000 times better than the majority of music ever made so I'm very hopeful.

As it's out there, circulating around at live shows, then I'm sure theres a leaked version. As it comes out on my birthday in two weeks time, I think it's meant to be that I refrain from checking the leak. Happy birthday to me.

Two nights in town and of course tickets are sold out well before I even heard they were happening.
