January 2008 update.


This is from Perpetual Motion Machine --

SOUVENIRS YOUNG AMERICA and CITY OF SHIPS
Split LP - Out in March 2008!
This is the evolution of the new Richmond sound, one that has taken the old and created something unique. You get haunting melodies with layered soundscapes drifting among crushing tones. Here, SOUVENIR'S YOUNG AMERICA follow up their highly praised "An Ocean Without Water" CD/LP on Crucial Blast with more intricate, instrumental sprawl that swallows the listener whole. Not easily classified, everything from doom and country to electronics and krautrock can be heard. Fans of Grails and Earth will be pleased. CITY OF SHIPS are more imaginative than ever, evolving beyond the tone of their debut CDep on Forcefield. Combining the driving melodies of Hum with the atmospheric crush of Cult of Luna and the sincere intensity of Hoover, these recent Virginia transplants get your blood pumping. Everything pulses and explodes, there is nothing not to love. The first pressing is limited to 300 with screen printed covers, hand numbered and signed. Available on the band's joint February/March 2008 tour or in fine stores worldwide. Don't miss out, these will disappear quickly.
