won’t give the rights back. We’ve asked. Original advance was tiny, did 3 1/2 records with them that they won’t give back to us after 25+ years now. They keep licensing to crappy reissue companies and we see nothing. Meanwhile, we can’t tour anymore and tour was all our $.

when i worked at streetlight records i had a “bad attitude” on the phone so i would be punished by… being assigned to answer the phone every day. so i was working the phone the day chris takino from up records called looking for me.

Gather your loved ones, 'Together' is here.
@thisisduster
's fourth album is a 13-song exploration of comfortable, interplanetary goth. A sonic vaseline of submerged guitars, solder-burned synths, and over-driven rhythm tracks.

he said someone gave me a cassette of yours and you guys are kind of weird, let’s do a seven inch and see how it does, then we’ll do a full length if the seven inch breaks even. i’m not sure the seven inch ever did break even but they put out Stratosphere anyway.

chris loved old soul 45s and he’s the one that played jimmy jules (“nothing will ever change”) for me, one of my favorite songs to this day. chris was dying at home at the time, but still finding joy in talking shit about nothing and listening to records.

we used to play live as a three piece: dragged an organ around (on the left in the photo) to play its bass pedals with our feet and guitars with our hands
Recorded in band member Clay Parton’s garage (aka Low Earth Orbit), the record bears all the hallmarks of the band’s early work: gaunt basslines, spindly guitars, and melancholy lyrics that lurk in the background. (photo by Ben Clark)
