Check out "The Feed"

It's a handy little 3-song EP of electronic/industrial music. So no, it has nothing to do with Disastroid music... but it's Travis's little brother's one-man-band, so we're gonna pimp it here.

On top of that, it's really damn good.

Listen and buy on Bandcamp now (for only five damn bucks), otherwise it should be up on CDBaby within a couple weeks.

"Iris Failure" Limited EP Now Out

...and by "out", I mean we have about 80 of them in a box here.

Since we've got a shiny new album on the way but never really got around to doing a proper release of our last little EP, "Iris Failure", I figured I'd give it an unusual treatment and produce a small batch of albums by hand.


The CD case is recycled paper, which I spraypaint stenciled, then stamped with a custom-cut "Disastroid" stamp. I thought it would be fun to go old-school with the insert, so it's a double-sided photocopy featuring art and info. The disc is printed normally (not handmade... the rest of this stuff took me enough damn time.)

Since there aren't very many of these, we'll be selling them at shows only... the next one is Halloween at the El Rio (with Juanita and the Rabbit and Mr. Gnome.) We'll make sure individual tracks are available for sale online too, on iTunes or whatever.

The next Disastroid CD is coming along nicely -- we're already mixing it -- and we hope to have that finished up by November, too!
