ToD Daytrotter Session 2007
03/03/2008 -- by merlin

I was just handed this article:

"The Prophets Say Trashings Can Be Gentle"

FYI, The ToD Daytrotter Session was recorded 15 November, in the year of our Lord two thousand and seven, at Futureappletree Studio 1 in Rock Island, Illinois. The setlist included: "Will You Smile Again?", "Crowning of a Heart", "Gargoyle Waiting" and "Totally Natural".

Free MP3s and a pleasant read. Who could ask for more?

Compulsory End of the Year Posting
12/29/2007 -- by merlin

Greetings corybantic internet phalanx,

The North American cartoon tour is over, we've all bid adieu to Interscope, and everyone is now afforded the opportunity to catch their breath.

 For those across the pond still unaware, the boys are confirmed for the May 2008 serving of All Tomorrow's Parties, curated by our friends in Explosions in the Sky. Further dates certainly look in the cards (as well as a new record), however you needn't hold me to that.

I'm hoping 2008 will see renewed development and expansion of this presently uncompleted website, but until then feel free to visit all the other fantastic Trail of Dead realms of the cyber world:

The Trail of Dead Message Board
Trail of Dead on YouTube
The Trail of Dead Gossip Fansite

Until we meet again, happy holidays and best wishes for the new year from everyone here in the Trail of Dead camp.

Onward and upward,
merlin
