we've got an interview, review in and are featured on the covermount CD in this month's visions magazine in germany*. unfortunately, i'm not sure what the review says as it's in german, and i only know enough to buy beer/pizza/find the train station. we've had loads of german press recently, as that's where the label are based. we'll be hasselhoffing it up in no time. our next single will be called DAS FIST.
anyway, the cover CD features the cribs, best coast, iliketrains and stuff, which is quite nice.

stick with the convoluted grammar, it does make sense, honest.

Holy brockwurst! That's amazing. I guess things will be ramping up with the release now Stew. Well deserved to

apparently there's a copy being sent to us, so i'll scan it and see if one of our german forumites could translate.
this one is in this month's zillo magazine. we also got #5 in their 10 best albums of the month.

Well, apparently you know long words like
nebeneinanderstehen . And when you say "
Deshalb gibt es auf der Platte keinen Firelefanz " I totally believe you. Difficult enough to get an ordinary
Elefant onto your disc. (OK, ok, I'll assume it's a typo for
Firlefanz .)
But I am a bit of a sucker for
ausufernden Gitarrensoli
[edit: fixed my own typo in "ausufernden"]

Awesome news
Unfortunately I can't remember enough German to translate it.

Good work. I have extremely limited German if you need low-quality help translating/deciphering what the hell Google Translate is on about.

it's cool, i've got similar "i can work it out with a dictionary/hazy memory combo" skills, but my girlfriend's cousin's wife is properly german, i might fire her a sainsbury's voucher and see if she'll spend a couple of hours translating all these articles. there's been five or six now.
