What You Missed || April 26, 2007

Thanks to a new video provider, here's the world Internet premiere of new Baptist Generals song "Clitorpus Christi," performed last week at the Dallas Public Library. Notice the utter lack of microphones or PA...I wasn't kidding when I said the show would be intimate. Enjoy!



You might be wondering when this song will see release as part of the Baptist Generals' long-awaited follow-up album on Sub Pop Records. Unfortunately, from what we heard at the Friday night show, all progress on the album has recently been scrapped, with the guys rumored to have said that they're "tired of the old songs." This, of course, is annoying to hear, as it's hard for the rest of the fans to be tired of songs they've barely ever heard, and it's yet another delay for an album that was originally touted by Sub Pop as a 2005 release. Oy. Will keep you posted on any further news on the album, which I'm pretty sure IS at least still being made...but who knows? -SM

EDIT: Here's another great song from that show, "Damn The Bloom." You might know it as a song available only on the European version of Dog...or you might just know it as the one in which Chris Flemmons yelps a whole bunch. Either way, it's become a new regular song in his rotation, and thank goodness.
