"PRODUCTIVITY" 7-inch AVAILABLE NOW! /// February 02, 2005 11:31 PM /// dispatch from Chris!
At long last, The Pathways' Productivity 7-inch is available! It features three excellent tracks, all exclusive to this release (although a re-recorded version of the A-Side, "Productivity", will appear on the band's upcoming full-length, Boat of Confidence). The record was pressed on on super-cool "coke bottle clear" vinyl and is limited to a pressing of 500. It is available now in the CAPITALISM section and also at Sound Fix in Williamsburg. More retail stores should be carrying it soon.
To celebrate the release, The Pathways have started a MySpace page and are also working on a slight facelift to their site (see a preview here). They're also playing two pseudo-release parties this week at Lit and the Bowery Poetry Club. Check the SHOWS section for more info on those...
As Pop Culture Press said recently in an early review of BOC: "In the tradition of when Pavement was good, the Pathways have a way of creating cleverly weaving song structures that teeter nimbly on the verge of collapse; the ever so tight musicianship, keeping it all together. Have confidence; they know what they're doing." Everybody knows The Pathways are your new favorite band, so maybe you should start acting like it.
