UPDATE
Vice just put a Year of the Pig video on their site - we played it in Montreal and the crew filmed it. I'm sure it turned out great - I haven't watched it, because I'm a busy guy, but I'm sure you will all enjoy it. Did I mention that that record is out now in the UK? Also on itunes.
A direct link to the video is right HERE.
They also just "blogged" about the mix tape. So if you'd like to jump over to their site to be redirected right back here, you can do that HERE. You can also leave comments on their site about how amazing we are, or on our site about how indie rock we are. Or on the DEERHUNTER blog about how it was our idea first in the first place.
Our friend Greg is making a FU dvd - its all the bands that played our October weekend last year. You can view screen shots HERE.
Check out the cover art mockup - its like one of our 7"'s GET IT?

Hey remember those mixtapes we made a few years ago - we are making a new one. It should come out around the same time as Chemistry of Common Life, the album. We have just been fiddling around with some new stuff we've done and threw together a demo version of part of the next mix tape.

UK
Hi, we are in the UK now. Camden just blew up, which is odd, because the last time we were here, the Cutty Sark did the same thing. We'll be back in September, so I'd watch out if you live near Big Ben.
Speaking of Camden, we play around there tommorow, which is valentines day, and also Andy Cappers birthday. Plus, you will be able to get the UK version of the Year of the Pig 12" on Vice, which was named Single of the Week in NME next week:
Fucked Up + The Dresdens + Outcry Collective Recommended
Thu Feb 14 Barfly, 49 Chalk Farm Road, London , NW1 8AN
WE PLAY AT 9.45Also we've been in the studio. Check it out.
