The Wipers `Over The Edge` encore in Ottawa last night.



last night in O-town was so much fun. Holy Cobras ruled. We were fed a really good curry. The turnout was great. The encore is posted above.. the bass was completely destroyed by this point. we drove home immediately following the set and Raf caught a plane to Mexico at 5am.

400 people confirmed to attend the show at the end of the month with The Peelies and Homosexual cops (and 300 maybes). The place holds about 250 max so get there early.

New track from the next 12inch was posted on myspace a few days ago and the pre-order starts any day. The first 100 pre orders get the last copies of the Be Bad + Attack Mode 7inch that Divorce put out in 2006. Check divorcerecords.ca for details.

Shub is in India. I am in Halifax. Raf is in jail. Cabral is missing.
^Artwork for Sunglasses 12" on Divorce - Pre-Order very soon

So we've been hard at work. Looks like we will have the 12" and 7" out at the same time. We ended up re-mixing the CKUT sessions ourselves and added in some jamming we were doing at 4am at Rafs place. I had to work the next morning but it was fun. The results of our re-mixed CKUT session are a way way far out version of R.F.I.D. We are slowly just assembling what we need to D.I.Ourselves (again) and I am excited to get back to home recording. We are just going try to deck out the HQ in 2010.

We are throwing a huge party on January 29th. Originally it was going to be the album release (delayed) but we figure we don't need an excuse to throw a party. Location: Torn Curtain Loft Bands: Grand Trine, The Peelies, The Homosexual Cops Djs: Annie Q & Emily B. B: BYOB. More details coming soon.

I just heard the master of the Black Feelings/Grand Trine split 7". Sounds great. Color vinyl. MP3 download code included. 500 copies. Silkscreened artwork. Should be neat.

Interview with Tobias Rochman on Weird Canda


http://weirdcanada.com/2009/12/interview-tobias-rochman-from-montreals-grand-trine/

It's no secret that Weird Canada is one of my favorite websites around. Definitely the best new blog of 2009. It has all the keys for success: content, simplicity and focus. Zach interviewed me and originally when we did the interview it was going to be for his blog Avant-Lard (also good), but after he pitched it to Weird Canada and they were into posting it. I am in ultra windbag ramble mode and my brain is picked clean.

**

We are heading back into the studio this weekend to record tracks for our split 7" with Black Feelings (will be released at Il Motore with Red Rockets Glare Feb 26th). We are going to record some extra tracks and maybe they will be released if someone wants to commit them to wax in the new year.

Pre-orders for the 12" go up next week and we'll post a new track and get rid of the old ones and all that jazz.

Also "Monochromatic Youth" is going to be used in a trailer for a post-apocalyptic love story that was shot in Halifax. I'll post that if I see it.
