Oh, I thought the album would definitely be released this year and these 4 tracks are all previews.

Chelsea Light Moving – first NYC Show to Benefit Tom Carter

August 15th, 2012 at 12:46 am by Gerard

 

Chelsea Light Moving‘s first NYC show is with White Out and Steve Gunn at 285 Kent on Sept. 12. It’s a benefit for Charalambides ‘Tom Carter who recently fell seriously ill while touring Europe.
Tickets are $21.69. There probably won’t be a guest list (or at least there shouldn’t be). If you cannot attend, donations are still being accepted here

just received the "caught on tape" LP on Feeding Tube records, and had the pleasant surprise to find a xeroxed CLM flyer signed by TM as insert !

is it too early to start a Sonic 2013 thread?

that will be a sweet birthday present. Thanks in advance Thurston :cool:

A new song was announced on the CLM blog but I don't see a download link; just two book covers and some "shit/make/freak/speak/fuck/burn/ship/flip/stick" lyrics.

its the last song on that show that nyc taper recorded...a short minimalist punk song.

okay so 4 songs have leaked so far I decided to pull out my geetar while recently listening to them where previously i was thinking that these are all mostly in the CGDGCD tuning... and i think they mostly are, i tabbed out "groovy & linda" in my head quite easily (probably the simpliest of these songs to play) and fragments of the others only after listening thru these once, sounds like alot of the same chords or similar chords are used and re-used in these songs.

I must say i kinda like this direction thurston is taking, a more minimalist and punk-ish approach... it harkens back to some of the pyschic hearts-esque sound but its more immediate sounding. just my 2 cents...

At this point is it hard to not assume that the whole album is going to be released for free one song at a time...

Lets discuss T's new hair cut.

LOL. Its a little too short. Its gotten better over the past couple of weeks though.

The CLM tracks are really interesting in a Free Kitten kind of way; Might turn out nice on a focused LP... However I doubt it 'll become anything REALLY TRULY great. Seems to random right now. Let's hope i'm wrong.

today?

Not quite yet, apparently...

Just posted on facebook:

"new song "lip" goes like this:

RIP UP YR SHIT UP
AND CUT UP YR HICCUP
MAKE OUT & FREAK OUT
... GET UP & SPEAK UP
GET FUCKIN MAD
TOO FUCKIN BAD

BURN UP + SHIP OUT
+ FLIP UP + FLIP OUT
STICK UP YR LIP OUT
+ BREAK UP + GET OUT
GET FUCKN MAD
TOO FUCKIN BAD

the music can be heard on the record when it comes out -- which will be in the blink of an eye - a very large/timeless eye.... our next appearance, where we will bust out "lip" once more, is dec 4th in nyc at the issue project room benefit-- we love you, we love you--- chelsea light moooooving"

haha, I guess the lyrics were free.

I finally listened to that 09/12/12 show and I really like the four (?) new songs, including the teased "Lip". I'm eager to hear the finished album, is it still planned for March?
