The Soft Pack

The Soft Pack

Released by Kemado


Late '70s punk revivals The Soft Pack slide in under the urgent as hell philosophy like an orgy byproduct of The Buzzcocks, The Jam and The Ventures.

Phish Is Coming In 3-D

And you thought the blue people in Avatar were tree huggers. A new landing page, Phish3DMovie.com, just went live this afternoon. It’s your typical “give us your e-mail, zip code, blood type” thing and they’ll let you know when there’s information available. There’s also the madatory Facebook page and Twitter account.

We already know there’s been a lot of talk on the web about a 3-D film being shot at last year’s Festival 8 concerts in Indio, and an insider tipster told us to look for a trailer at the beginning of Alice In Wonderland this weekend. Has anyone seen it yet? That same tipster says that the first sneak screening will happen soon enough, so check the red letter day on your stoner calendar.

There’s also  new  Aliens/Hellraiser-inspired press photos, which are only slightly less creepy than the eyeball less images Hawtin used to promote the last Plastikman album, Closer.
