Merry Christmas From Americatown!



This Christmas/whatever-holiday-or-occasion-you-want-to-make-it-about we're giving away the soundtrack to Americatown, available for download at americatown.bandcamp.com This hearty 23 track album is one of our favorite parts of the film and features a mind-blowing original score by savant/wunderkind Seth Moody (still eligible for Oscar Nomination **fingers crossed), songs recorded exclusively for the movie by some of our best friends (Ponchos From Peru, Fortress Of Swatches, Bibis Ellison, Fran Dyer), music from a couple of the most fireball-esque acts in North Carolina (Yardwork, Ryan Gustafson) and a few other tracks by bands that we somehow have a vague, make believe and pseudo-permission to use in the film (Why?, Animal Collective, Dr. Dog ).

Download the pa-ju-ju out of this album, pass it on, find the bands that contributed to it, download the pa-ju-ju out of them and give them all of your money, they are the number ones, and so, SO phenomenomenomenomenal.

Thank y'ins for your support, its been a great year, we couldn't ask for better friends. Keep your eyes peeled, we're just getting started.

Elephant Shoe,
Godspeed yourself (Godspeed your Elf)

“An utterly different take on the American fantasy” --TimeOut Chicago
