New B-sides/demos compilation coming our way soon. First announced with the launch of the new blackfrancis.net website and now this update from Facebook moments ago:
"Black Francis mastering Abbabubba, a compilation of b-sides, demos, etc. at Jason Carter's Wavelength Studios today...
3 minutes ago"
Not a lot of info to go on so far but hopefully if they are mastering today then it could potentially be realised in the not too distant future, however I don't know how this would fit into the release schedule with Rock Golem & the new Grand Duchy. Which songs would you like to see make an appearance? To start with I would like to see Ghost Coming to make the list.
Discuss.

LOL not to the best of my knowledge.
If you turn the disc 90% it looks like a set of lips,which funnily enough it the logic that I also apply to real vaginas. |

Looks like it is a CR-r. It smells like one and I googled some of the numbers on it and found 2 other albums which have the same Matrix Number (Inner Ring): C0609T MBI 80UG and under format for both they state: CDr.

The disc label does seem to have some relief to it though.

I dont know in the USA but now in Europe you make 1000 cds for about 300 euros including impression, and that's way safer than a cdr.
the cheapest I found was 500 cd's for 770 euros. That was including digipack though

MPO makes you 1000 real cds (and printed quite well) without packaging for 400 euros. I dont need the packaging cos i make it myself...
But it seems you have to negociate the price. And that was a year ago.
Sorry i exagerated a bit with 300 euros (i never remember prices and number) |

'got mine today.
some great songs or great versions (except the seus remixes to my mind).
but cd do not seems to be a silver one but a printed cdr. |

Arrived yesterday, nice compilation. No surprises for the folks here who've been paying too much attention to the one-offs released on MySpace, et al. Definitely for fans... some iffy demo quality there. Why Virginia Reel wasn't an album track is mystifying. Bring on more Bureau releases!

a little late to the party, but wanted to mention (in case you aren't aware) that RMTB is in actual fact a They Might Be Giants song, from their brilliant "Flood" album. |
