I thought about posting a bit of video I took of Clinton running over his new Stoner rock epic in drop-C, “C is for Cthulhu”, which we will be recording this Saturday but then figured, bah, I don’t want to spoil the surprise for you guys. There is an urge…
Well folks, if all seems somewhat quiet in the LP4 world from the outside, I can assure you it’s all quite busy here at LP4 central headquarters. We’ve been busy rehearsing and arranging new material and we’ll begin recording basic tracks on May 11th which is just around the corner. Since…

Crikey! SXSW is all about a million good things happening at one time. As it happens, some of our best buds, ST37, are playing SXSW after all (we missed them in the prior SXSW post) and not only are they playing the festival but they are playing with My Education,…
