Update #5: Hey where's my 7"!?
Heh,
It'll be ready when it's ready... hopefully we'll have it out to the plant this coming week, but as is the way with things where I wait on one person waiting on another person... it can get kind of weak!
But in good news, the stickers are being printed... the shirt screens are nearly ready and... here's hopefully the coolest part... In the interim of you all pledging this money, I wrote and recorded a solo "clark 8" album called , you can get it completely for free (streaming and/or download) here:

ENJOY!

The album is called heart heart heart but with less than signs and 3s. It was named that as a commentary on internet mediated emotions and to confound HTML mangling parsers.

Update #3: Shirt GRAFIX
Hey,
So those of you who have pledged enough to get a shirt you should see what kind of thing you'll be getting. I think I will offer the original clark 8 shirt design that my friend Taylor did the art (font) for... but also... We're going to offer this really rad shirt design too.
This graphic, like most of our graphics was done by the superartstar Athena Sundaykat: www.sundaykat.tk
So yeah! I hope you're doing well. Thanks for your support!
Best,
Rich
Update #2: Our video for Snooze!
Hey there,
I don't think that the gods at KickStarter will let me embed a video, but check out the video for Snooze, which will appear on the record. You are going to be eating those tom hits at the end like they were Campbell's Chunky Soup when this is spinning on your turntable.

PS here's me attempting to embed it:
Update #1: We have reached the one eighth mark.
Oh friggin boy am I excited about that. And to thank those of you who've pledged thus far I'm posting a live version of Blue Widow. This is from our most recent Pehrspace show with Elijah subbing for Dave on bass. I think I say/sing a rated R type of word in it, so... you've been warned.
Let your vinyl head friends know about this so they can pledge too... if they like rock n roll, that is.
Thanks again and happy upcoming holidays,
-rich
