Several Blood Brothers Resurface In Past Lives

Alternative Press - Jason Pettigrew on 12/10/07 @ 12:12 PM - altpress.com

The Blood Brothers, Seattle's finest immolators of the punk blueprint, have called it a day. But spit-shine those black clouds: Former Bloods Jordan Blilie (singer), Morgan Henderson (bass/synthesizer) and Mark Gajadhar (drums) have teamed up with Shoplifting guitarist Devin Welch for a new unit called Past Lives. The band are working on songs as you read this-or not. They claim to have a MySpace page, but I'll be damned if I can find it. And if you missed it a year ago, here are the Bloods beating the hell out of the Jimmy Kimmel Live studio audience with "Teen Heat."

Alternative Press - Mike Scales on 12/10/07 @ 11:25 AM - altpress.com

Rapper Slug and producer Ant, a.k.a. Atmosphere, have announced the release of the latest installment of their Sad Clown EP series. A word from Rhymesayers Entertainment:

"What do you do when you record too many songs for your new album? How about drop an EP of that material for each season leading up to it's release. The midwestern duo is back at it to warm you up with their release of Sad Clown Bad Winter #11. With the shortest days and lowest temperatures upon us, this EP will make you forget all about those dark cold nights."

The EP will be available everywhere December 18.
