Very pleased to announce that Broken Water have confirmed to play at the annual music festival that is Total Fest! The fest will take place, as always, in Missoula, Montana during the weekend of August 19-21st. For more info regarding the purchasing of tickets, Missoula barbeque etiquette, horse balls, potato guns, etc., go HERE!

Says Total Fest IX promo...

I had the pleasure of seeing Broken Water play a show at the Capitol Theater with Japanther and Kimya Dawson in Olympia, Washington in December of 2009. Seeing bands I love away from home is one of my favorite things, ever. I was surrounded by friends, family and a ton of stangers; I had a blast. I didn't know anything about Broken Water, though my two Missoula transplant pals assured me that I was in for a treat. I was reminded that a few years earlier, I had seen BW band members Kanako (drums/vox) and Jon (guitar/vox) play in another band, Sisters, also with Japanter, also in Olympia, also awesome. Although it's difficult to touch on exactly what makes this band so great and why I'm so excited that they are coming to Total Fest, I can assure you that they've got the DIY spirit. I anticipate only that you'll love their slighly Siouxsie Sioux/My Bloody Valentine pop psych tunes, low key vibe and groovy live set. Broken Water are one of those bands whose love of the music they make is palpable on the faces of the players. In one of those rare very genuine "we're stoked" kind of ways.

Replicator's Conan Neutron is in the process of publicly dropping the pants of Karl Rove. The process, as I've read, is called a Google Bomb.

Says Neutron:

Karl Rove is coming out with a memoir called "Courage and Consequence". We are putting out a compilation LP by the same name that is coming out before his book. Songs about, pertaining to, or answers to Karl Rove specifically. We are going to culture jam his memoir and wreck his special day by dominating google results, amazon sales, etc.

We also are making a hell of a compilation.

This is a completely grassroots effort funded by donations and pre-orders.

We love ya, Conan!
