TIM HEIDECKER ANNOUNCES VIRTUAL RECORD STORE TOUR DATES

In support of his recently released album Fear of Death, Tim Heidecker is “heading out” on a nine-day virtual tour of beloved U.S. record stores next month. Each night, a different store will host Heidecker playing a short acoustic set on their socials or website.

Heidecker says: “Independent record stores are really important and without being able to visit in person, this virtual tour is a small way for me to do my bit in supporting them, after they have been so kind in supporting me.”

Like all good tours, Heidecker has also made a special edition, screen-printed, hand-numbered poster on 18×24″ cover weight paper, limited to 200 copies and signed by the artist Ryan Duggan. Posters are available to purchase at: https://store.timheideckermusic.com/products/tim-heidecker-virtual-record-store-tour-numbered-and-signed-poster

All virtual shows are free to attend.

Praise for Fear of Death:
 
“a sunny, psychedelic record that looks death in the eye and hums right along to it.” – INTERVIEW 
 
“Glowing like a Laurel Canyon sunset, ‘Fear of Death’ is Dad rock for the end of the world or, at least, your youth.” – Washington Post 
 
“Despite the dark subject matter, much of Fear of Death is deceptively upbeat, with catchy, uptempo numbers like ‘Come Away With Me,’ the title track or ‘Backwards,’ which sweetly warns us that ‘sun is setting on the good times, oh no.'” – Inside Hook 
 
“[Fear Of Death] is his best so far, helped along by an impressive cast starring Mering, whose backup vocals dramatically enhance Tim’s raw tenor.” – FLOOD 
 
“[Fear Of Death is] easily Heidecker’s best and most fully realized record yet, and not just for his earnest exploration of death’s inevitability and the future’s instability.” – AV Club 

(review) DA-SKATE – La Teoria De Los Septenios

cover

I just love South America and the scene over there with so many fantastic bands coming out and delivering their goods, we in Europe are not too familiar with and I love to discover new favorites there. This time, Da-Skate from Mercedes, Argentina released their new one with 12 songs of melodic hardcore/skate punk just the way it was meant to be. The song titles and lyrics are in Spanish language so I don´t understand what they are about since I don´t speak that wonderful language, but the music speaks for itself. Music of Da-Skate is melodic hardcore punk, leaning more on skate punk of nineties that I love so much and on which I grew up on. What immediately falls to ear and mind upon listening are vocals. This voice is so nice, melodic and sweet, but not cheesy or snotty, I love vocal lines, epic choruses and backing vocal harmonies like in one of my personal favorites La colina de las cruces. Also, these songs, mainly faster and strong, also have a certain dose of melancholy and sadness that continues for me throughout the record upon listening and I love that feeling, during some songs it made goosebumps on my skin really strong. This one is another jewel in the crown of skate punk underground. My personal favorites: La colina de las cruces, La verdad duele…, Vis pacem, para bellum.
