On January 26, Matador will release Casual Victim Pile (an anagram for Live Music Capital), a regional compilation focused on Austin bands (along with a pair from Denton). The compilation features Woven Bones, Harlem, the Golden Boys, the No No No Hopes, the Young, the Distant Seconds, Follow that Bird and many more. You can pre-order your copy now, but if you can't wait to sample the collection, look no further. Grab "The Ghosts That Wake You" (mp3) by Follow That Bird and "First 48" (mp3) by Love Collector now.
February 4-6, Beerland will host a series of shows to celebrate the album's release. We'll have more details on that very soon.
This is a fantastic lineup. I'm looking forward to hearing it in it's entirety. Go, Matador!
