The SLiP - EISENHOWER IS FINALLY HERE!

Post: # 12209Post Dan »

The day has come. <a href="http://www.theslip.com/info.php">The Slip</a> have <img src="http://www.theslip.com/images/FINAL_EIS ... _SMALL.jpg" align="right" border="0" hspace="15">signed to acclaimed <a href="http://www.bar-none.com/">Bar/None Records</a> (Architecture in Helsinki, Spinto Band, Yo La Tengo, They Might Be Giants,) and will be releasing their new studio album EISENHOWER’ into the world on Nov. 7th with the warm fuzzy pride of new parents. Co-Produced by <a href="http://theslip.com/info.php">The Slip</a> and Matthew Ellard (Elliot Smith, Billy Bragg & Wilco, Morphine) and with additional engineering by good friend and fellow Montrealien Drew Malamud (Stars, Metric, The Dears), EISENHOWER easily stands as the most cohesive and evocative work The SLIP has released to date. Stay tuned for even more shocking and fantastic news.

Wahoo!!! It's about time ;} jus' kiddin'

I think they have a '40's theme going with this one and not to mention Andrew's WWII googles he's been wearing off and on for the last year or so. I'm so happy and excited for them!

Cheers!!!!

Your eyes are better than mine Dan. This is great news. I've noticed they made a bunch of other recent changes to their website; including deleting the link to this message board.

Congratufrigginlations! I am very psyched this album has finally come to fruition, and I want to know where I can preorder a dozen copies! :)

Ok, I won't question the album title. I remember Ike was a five-star general who helped kick the Nazis' asses, but really Patton did most of the work over there.

From what I can piece together of the song list I can see, this is what I got:

The Slip
Eisenhower

1. Children of December
2. Even Rats
3. If One of Us Should Fall
4. Airplane, Primitive
5. Suffocation Keep
6. Happy Moment in Space ?
7. The Soft Machine
8. Life in Disguise
9. ???
10. The Original, Blue Air ?
11. Paper Birds

I'm sure these are off a bit...that's what my eyes can detect.

Yeah, the link to here is down...maybe they're getting ready for a new board (let's hope...we can't take more of this for much longer :) ).

My guess is a whole new web page design is coming soon.

Very exciting news...Can't wait to spin it......

Sweet! Nice to have something official.

Some of the graphic links seem to be broken on the tour page too...That'd be cool if there's a site re-dseign in the works, it's certainly been a while.
