A huge thank-you to all the fans, new friends and lovers of Hua Li, ¡Flist!, Saxsyndrum and DirtyOrgans for coming out to our very first ANL Showcase. That’s a wrap for us for 2014, but we’re bursting at the seams with videos, tours, and releases for next year.
Extra special kisses to Tyler Reekie for providing us with live visuals at Brasserie Beaubien, and Robby Reis for these photos!
Sometimes things come together a little too easily. December 6th, 2014, Art Not Love is taking over Brasserie Beaubien for an all night ANL love fest featuring live music by DirtyOrgans, Saxsyndrum, ¡FLIST!, and Hua Li 化力, with all night live visuals by Tyler Reekie. Come see and hear all the junk we’ve been talking about for the past year in the flesh as we tear everyone’s favourite venue to the ground. Poster artwork by none other than Jonny Negron.
Hoping to catch up with all our lost lovers. c u there..
¡FLIST!’s debut album, Fuck You Im Dead available now.
I feel like I grew up reading about bands that just pop into a studio and a record is magically made over a weekend and have had that hanging over my head for the last decade while I slowly pieced ¡FLIST! together. Everything on Fuck You Im Dead is a reaction to something in my life, and led to its completion representing some kind of monument to my depression and anxiety that I’ve just been chipping away at over the years. This was supposed to be so much more elaborate and last spring I decided it was taking way too long, changed the title, prepared it for cassette and just closed my eyes and let go. – Charlie Twitch via Chart Attack
You can stream the album in it’s entirety on Chart Attack right now. Get your copy now on cassette, CD, or digital download via the Art Not Love shop!
The album launches this Friday, November 14th at Société d’arts technologiques Satosphère dome along with a presentation of Party Like it’s 1699’s Pop d’Epoque.
