Not directly Twitterous, but since we got onto the Kimya subject a couple pages ago, thought y'all might dig this:

WALK LIKE THUNDER
Kimya Dawson- guitar, vocals
Andrew Dorsett- piano
Jack Dishel- guitar
Nikolai Fraiture- bass
Angelo Spencer- guitar
Ben Kapp- drums, percussion
Clyde Petersen- amp shaking, thunder making
Additional vocals- Aesop Rock, John Darnielle, Quinn Tuffinuff
Written by Kimya Dawson and Aesop Rock

oh hey there JD (from the credits to the forthcoming Kimya rec Thunder Thighs (unfortunately not due til summertime)

I saw her play it live twice this winter, and it's un-f'in-believable. She wrote on her Twitter (back on subject sorta?) that Aes did a whole verse at the end, which understandably enough didn't appear live, so I'm ultra-stoked to be blown away.

ETA: oh yeah he also did all sorts of beats for the record, as well as some other vox - there's two straight-up Kimya raps, apparently. whoa.

ETA2: @kimyadawson575: "Haiku- John Darnielle: When John's voice kicks in/on my song Walk Like Thunder/ I get the shivers"

Someone please interpret this for me... my brain is bouncing around in my skull in the best way:

"I will explain this tomorrow but I think enterprising souls will be able to do the math here. stoked [yfrog.com];



ETA quotes so I'm not cribbing JD's words

My guess is that All Survivors Pack is the demos for All Eternals Deck, a la The Life of the World in Flux. But on cassette!

It basically means demos for the one after All Eternals Deck will be on wax cylinders…

I went to the toilet before I came to the internet cafe, meaning this doesn't have to be a x2.

I'm sitting here refreshing the home page & the Twitter page incessantly, like a junkie texting his dealer. The comparison may be more apt than I am comfortable with.

Text-message notifications set for JD twitter feed, credit card # memorized... if a pre-order goes live while I'm in class, I'm going to pretend I'm going to the bathroom.

Just pre-ordered. Hoo-ah!

Also, am I missing something? Or is Merge saying this is the cover art? Will the CD and LP have different versions?

*accepts & returns hug, celebrating as at the end of a long war*

I wonder if there will be any indication before the package arrives if we get a cassette.

Because, if not, that would just be intolerable.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand order in!

"This is our first tape since Yam, the King of Crops. Typing that last sentence has given me more raw pleasure than I can faithfully detail."

Badassness indeed.


We are the ones who don't slow down at all...

"All Eternals Deck vinyl will be pressed on 3 colors; 120 blue, 880 clear, and 3,000 black. Colors are packaged randomly throughout the run; we cannot accept requests for specific colors. "

Ordered around 1:05 - I wonder what effect the Twitter factor's had on how quickly the tapes go!


It's just a noise. A noise you hear. When everything is awesome
