What’s Up, Basic Satan?

Guess what: I made a tumblr for Basic Satan/The Spend, and it’s going to serve as the go-to website for everything. It’s: http://thespend.tumblr.com/. Have a tumblr? Please follow for updates and such. Don’t have a tumblr? This is the internet, and it still works. Hope everyone is well.

Love,

Mr. The Spend

Dear Everybody,

In case you didn’t know yet, Basic Satan (and The Spend with it) moved to the Big Apple.  And, already, shows are booked!  The first is October 8, 9:30 p.m. (sharp), at Googie’s Lounge (above the Living Room).  See above.

In the meantime, working on LP2, overhauling the website, and…Still out: the first Basic Satan release:

The Spend

Mild Peril

11 tracks of killer Space Folk on 12″ vinyl and…

on CD.

(But the records all come with CDs, so, really, you should probably just get the record.  I’m not going to tell you how to live your life.  But they look cool, and getting a record in the mail is way fun, and, I mean, you get the CD so…)

For sale in the Basic Satan store.  Copies are also available at Reckless Records, Laurie’s Planet of Sound, Logan Hardware Records, and Death or Glory Records in Chicago.  And, of course, at Waiting Room Records in Bloomington/Normal.

If you’d like to hear some songs from the new album, you can go here.

If you’d like to read some nice things about the new album, you can go here or here or here or here or here or here*.

*Really, that last one is about open mics, but The Spend is mentioned positively and there’s nice photos and a live recording.
