For Against :: archives

The Words On Music label have put up a great tribute/collection to the underappreciated For Against with a great discography, band history, and collection of show posters...

"Words On Music announces the launch of the For Against Archive. For Against has one of the longest tenures on America's independent music scene - dating back to 1984. For the thousands of For Against fans, especially those throughout the world that have never had the opportunity to see the band perform in person, we have created the Archive to document the band's history through photographs, flyers, and other historical information. This Archive will be updated as Words On Music locates and identifies more original source material. If you have any For Against archival documents that you would like to see posted here, please contact Words On Music."

Zookeeper (ex-Mineral/Gloria Record) :: NY shows + MP3s

ex-Mineral and The Gloria Record singer Chris Simpson is back, this time heading a solo-project under the name Zookeeper. It's good stuff... pretty mellow, kind of somewhere between Van Morrison and the Beatles, with nice acoustic/electric instrumentation and tasteful brass horns now and then.
He'll be heading to NYC for a pair of shows. Check it out for yourself.

July 8th
New York, NY @ Lit
w/ The 101 (ex- Christie Front Drive)

July 13th
New York, NY @ Pianos
