Those Poor Bastards To Release “Satan is Watching”
Hot on the heels of “The Plague” which was released just last March Madison, WI based Gothic-Country band Those Poor Bastards will release “Satan is Watching” this October. Just in time for All Hallows Eve, kiddies.
For the vinylphiles among you, this will be the first TPB release offered as a limited edition 12″. Track liting will be released when the final release date is ironed out.

The Dexateens – “Lost and Found” – Free Download
Following a questionable business model, laid down by millionaires like Prince, Trent Reznor (NIN) and Radiohead, of giving away your music for free online but then asking for a donation (why buy the cow? etc. etc.) or recouping the cost in other ways, Tuscaloosa, Alabama’s The Dexateens, and their label. Sky Bucket, are offering up their new release “Lost and Found†gratis.
The Dexateens are one of my favorite current bands and one that best epitomizes the moniker alt.country (for good or bad) and I hope this free download gets them some headlines and some cash from fair-minded people that realize it’s hard to make great music if you’re waiting tables or changing oil to make the bills. I’d like to hear what what all of you think about this model.
The exposure that The Dexateens get by supporting the mighty Drive By Truckers on the road for some upcoming dates might go a long way to helping them get the word out. Get out and see this great show when they come to your town.
