Shabazz Palaces in the Stranger

Looks like Seattle's most mysterious MC is getting some well deserved attention.

Read the article by clicking HERE.



If you want to check it out before it blows the fuck up, get your ass to Retail Therapy (905 E Pike at the corner of Pike and Broadway) and pick up both CDs. Trust me, you want to own that packaging. Someday, I hope to see a thousand people in close quarters sporting their Shabazz Palaces badges (designed by the geniuses at Dumb Eyes.)

Speaking of Dumb Eyes, I hope to see any and all of you reading this at PENETRATION tomorrow night at Bus Stop.

Stranger Feature and Show Tonight!

Dave Segal wrote a feature on me for The Stranger. Click here and read it.


Love the title, but my favorite part is this line:
The 10-track album reflects Blood's love of MBV and the Jesus and Mary Chain's clangorous melodic efflorescence, but it's enriched by a patina of romanticism that evokes John Hughes's '80s films.
I'm pretty sure I never mentioned John Hughes during the interview, so I'm really glad that influence comes through. Seriously.

And wow, I sure do cuss like a sailor. Sorry Mom and Dad, (though I secretly blame my mom.)

Thanks Dave! And I hope you, and everyone else in Seattle, comes to the show tonight at Chop Suey! DON'T BE LATE!
