Linear notes

Due to format restrictions (you'll see), we weren't able to include all liner notes we had intended to use(?) for Wind (long eye), our tour cd-r. Sorry to everyone that's not immortalized in ink and is subjugated to having their name on the internet. So apologies accepted, this is how our real liner notes read:


Songs recorded at Death Valley. Engineering by Adrian and Marty. Except Fallen Apart--who knows.

Silent Way is: Adrian, Amanda, Drucker, and Marty. Erin played drums on 4-6.

Kamikaze Dan, Steve Yanick, Brick Mower, Bad Hug, RLC Radio, Julie, Diana, Ameilia ABC No Rio, Andy and Buck Doorbum, Foreign Objects, Matt, Spinach Florida, and Everyone who has put us up, booked us a show, or been inexplicably great to us, without fail--Thank You All.


1. Nothing to Keep
2. Pressed for Time
3. Adriansong
4. Convenient Outs (June Demo)
5. I Don't Want to Hold Your Hand (June Demo)
6. Sure Enough (June Demo)
7. Fallen Apart (Live from Providence, Rhode Island)
8. Finished (Live at Death Valley)

So there's that.
Yes, we haven't thrown Wound a release party yet but that's happening in late January. But the good news is you can get an early, special tour edition, with very cool, painstakingly crafted bonus album art, from us, while we're on tour (or not) starting on January 2nd.

More small news to follow.

UPDATES/TOUR/LP

Hey,

So perhaps the last update before we leave for tour so I'll try to include everything. Last weekend we played Lotus Fucker's record release show in Washington, D.C. Lotus Fucker's LP is a marvel of everything great about music, and if you haven't immersed yourself in the Fucker yet, do find them.
They are playing a show in New Brunswick on January 1st with Slave Scene, Nazi Dust, Pollution, Fleshtemple, and The Men. We then play January 2nd with them twice, and January 4th at the Terrordome in Phillly. Then a week later again, but these will be some of your last chances to experience them (outside of DC at least) until their massive summer tour with the Wankys, so don't fuck up!

Anyway, after being snowed in for hours and days, we made it back to Jersey and have been putting the semi-finishing touches on the LP Wound and CD-R Wind.

Regarding the latter: it's 3 new songs, 3 demo songs, and 2 live songs. For a variety of reasons, the artwork is nowhere near what it was officially supposed to be. The same is currently true of Wound. The main reason is a lack of time, however, and eventually we hope to have Wound the way we intended. Regardless, we will have those two releases plus t-shirts and 7"s for our winter tour.

Speaking of the tour, here is the pretty-much final run down of it:

Jan 2 NYC @ ABC NO RIO
Jan 2 BROOKLYN @ STOLEN SLEEVES COLLECTIVE (WE HOPE/THINK)
Jan 3 BOSTON/BINGHAMTON/CT? ? ?
Jan 4 PHILADELPHI @ THE TERRORDOME
Jan 5 RICHMOND @ THE TRIPLE
Jan 6 CHARLOTTE @ SNUG HARBOR
Jan 7 GREENVILLE, SC @ THE HANGER
Jan 8 JACKSONVILLE @ SHANTYTOWN PUB
Jan 9 SARASOTA, FL HOPEFULLY
Jan 10 GAINESVILLE @ WAYWARD COUNCIL
Jan 11 ATLANTA @ WONDERROOT
Jan 12 ASHEVILLE, NC @ STATIC AGE RECORDS
Jan 13 HARRISONBURG, VA @ THE BLUE NILE
Jan 14 WASHINGTON D.C. @ WMUC STUDIOS
Jan 15 BALTIMORE @ RUINTOWN
Jan 16 YORK, PA @ SKID ROW GARAGE

after that we have a bunch of local shows. Jan 28th in Brooklyn at Shea Stadium and 29th in New Brunswick (the latter will be our record release)

our March tour will take us to most likely the following places: NJ, Harrisonburg, Nashville, Lexington, Chicago, Columbus, and St. Louis among some other places. Our summer tour we will also know the general route of by the end of January.

That's all for now. If you have any inquiries of any sort, email us at silentwaynb AT gmail.com or shoot a message to our myspace which also features additional show info: www.myspace.com/silentwaynb

that's all!
