Black Moth Super (Hairy) Rainbow

Have I mentioned lately how much I love Black Moth Super Rainbow? And how I love their upcoming cd? The last album was amazing, and this new one Eating Us, (available May 26), does not fail to disappoint. If this is the only electronic band you buy this year - or ever - buy this record.

More deserved hype?
the band has created 1600 hairy Eating Us CDs which will be sold in ten different retail stores across the country, as well through Graveface Records' website (http://graveface.com/) and other online outlets. (Retail stores include all three Reckless Records in Chicago, IL Underground Sounds in Louisville, KY, Good Records in Dallas, TX, Landlocked Music in Bloomington, IN, Grimey's New + Preloved Music in Nashville, TN, Park Ave CDs in Orlando, FL, Sonic Boom Records - Capitol Hill in Seattle, WA and Aquarius Records in San Francisco, CA.) Black Moth Super Rainbow has also created insanely awesome and completely unique in-store stands, some of which are up to 4 feet in height, to display these limited-edition hairy CDs. No two stands are the same. Jpegs of the hairy CD and three of the in-store displays are below.

Each copy of the limited-edition hairy version of Black Moth Super Rainbow's Eating Us, comes with a download card which immediately triggers an mp3 download of the "Born on a Day" demo and entry into the hairy CD contest. There will be three contest winners picked sometime in late June!

1st Prize: A hairy stand for the winner’s house plus a BMSR test pressing
2nd Prize: The available back catalog from Graveface Records
3rd Prize: A signed copy of Eating Us
