Low Remix EP

Tonight The Monkeys Die collects five remixes of a great tune off Low's surprisingly amped up Great Destroyer. Available on CD later this year, but on iTunes now, the EP features versions of "Monkey" by Fog, Crew Jones, Stephin Merritt, Bob Mould, and The Count. They're all pretty awesome ... well, you can skip the Crew Jones one (slowcore and rap don't mix well). Here's the original:

Low - "Monkey" (MP3)

Low will (gently) rock Decatur, GA at the Paste Rock'n'Reel Festival October 22 and 23.. It's one of the band's only concert dates this year. Festival line-up and ticket info here.

Sweeeet!!! This will be one of the few times I am happy to be living in Atlanta (Decatur is literally next door) instead of NYC.

Hey guys, I'm hear to say that you better go see the Brothers Chaps talk at the Rock 'n' Whatever festival if you know what's good for you. The Cheat said he wouldn't go, so I told him once and for all that he can't have any more lightswitch rave parties. Well, anyway, I have email to answer. And you have your marching orders.

Yep - Cru Jones is one of the greatest protagonists of the 80's...possibly THE greatest.

Oh, and listen to Strong Bad, he knows.

A festival in Decatur? Is this going to be an annual thing?

ads say "first annual" so it seems so. i'll take Strong Bad's marching orders, especially for $15 a day (and no ridiculous ticketmaster charges)

Crew Jones is what music should be so people should start watching their mouths more closely...they are from Minnesota
