SXSW and a new bass player!

Hey dudes and ladydudes,

We posted our upcoming shows for SXSW on myspace, we'll put more info up there as we get it! So far it looks like:

16TH - CLUB ENCORE
17TH - TBA
18TH - DEATH METAL PIZZA SHOP
19TH - TBA or HOUSE SHOW
20TH - TBA or HOUSE SHOW
21ST - JACKELOPE

Also we want to welcome our new bass player, Ricky Way! Ricky was in such epic bands as, "Defcon Burly, Gay Animals, and Total Jerk" just to name a few. I've known him for 14 years. When we were kids our shitty punk bands would play shows together at the Burien Library. Maybe you were at one of those early primitive Book of Black Earth gigs?!?!

Anyways, he's in our band now, welcome!

NEW YEARS EVE

Live from the Black Lodge

A new record!

Hey dudes and lady dudes. We are working hard on writing a new record for your listening pleasure and this one will truly be skull shattering. We are not quite sure where we are recording it (or when) but more than likely it will be in the next couple months. The only thing I know for sure is a title and that is, "The Cold Testament".

Thematically, The Cold Testament will be a little looser than Horoskopus, but there is still an underlying current to both the sound of the album and lyrically. This will in my opinion be our strongest, most haunting offering, closing another chapter in the Book of Black Earth.

Also as a four piece now, the sound has changed a bit in the more raw guitar driven direction. I know a lot of you miss the keyboards (and a lot of you don't!) but more than likely they'll make an appearance here and there on the next record.

OK I hope you all are well,

TJ
