That Tank tour: earplugs, essential
- Artists:
- That Fucking Tank »
Purveyors of the loudest twin-person aural weaponry known to man, That Fucking Tank, are limbering up to tour the country in support of their forthcoming debut long-player, Day Of Death By Bono Adrenalin Shot (sic).
The album, all deep bass-rich grooves and blunderbuss drums you can shake it to, is scheduled for a January 30th release. DiS ran into one of the TFT pair at December's ATP; he was wearing a cat mask. Nice whiskers, meeoww...

you wear earpulgs! PULGS!! YOU'RE a gay!
Have you seen TFT?
You'll need them, swear.
Argghh
I read that as 'Think Tank' and thought it might be something about new Blur material. Bastards.
i know
my earplugs never leave my pocket
but to go in my ears that is!!!
you'd do better listening to the 'tank mate
everyone go and see them. they're fucking great!!!!
goddamnit
i might have to go to one of the leeds ones.

they are great! the lp is already out!
They also...
...play the Yorkshire House in Lancaster with Malkovich on the 11th.
It's gonna be awesome.
we still have free earplugs
silver rocket branded earplugs to give away at gigs!
3rd feb UATG is with the mighty Cove.
there was some
mogwai earplugs on ebay a couple years ago.
i curse myself everyday for not getting them, if purely for the comedy value.
Out already?
Well, all my info says the 30th.
I expect they've been selling it at gigs and through the Jealous site, though, a la TAV did with their (EXCELLENT) The Night... record, innit.
GAWD I LOVE JEALOUS RECORDS.
we have a pair
of the mogwai ones, they're not that great, and no i'm not selling them. I never have original ideas, mind you neither do mogwai they ripped the idea off part chimp the same as us.
