Have you heard the new Gossip album? Gasp You haven't even heard the single "Standing In The Way of Control"??...Then let me tell you friends, you're missing out, big time! And just because we're nice guys over here at Kill Rock Stars we're even gonna give you an mp3 for "Standing In The Way of Control" at the bottom of this post, no thanks needed, we do it because we love you.
In case you're not already hurrying your little mouse over to the Kill Rock Stars shop to buy the album, in case you need even further proof as to the bliss of The Gossip then may I suggest catching them on their new U.S. Tour with none other than Erase Errata and Mika Miko (both of whom released new albums last Tuesday!)
But that's not all, not only will The Gossip be playing at End Fest on Saturday 8/12 (with the likes of The Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Mars Volta, etc), but they'll also be opening for...Blondie! at their Bumbershoot show. whew! Man are The Gossip busy!
Also check out The Gossips pre-End Fest live radio gig on Seattle's own 107.7 The End on Friday 8/11, they'll go on around 6 pm. And now, because we promised, the single from the new Gossip album (which we may add you can purchase Here), and title track, Standing In The Way of Control: The Gossip-Standing In The Way of Control

About Kill Rock Stars

killrockstars — Wed, 19 Jul 2006 22:16:34 GMT

Kill Rock Stars is an independent record label founded in 1991 by Slim Moon and based in Olympia, WA. Originally intended to release spoken word seven inches under the "wordcore" moniker, it quickly expanded to become a punk rock rock and roll label thru the release of a compilation, some rock seven inches, and albums and EPs. The first bands "on" Kill Rock Stars included Unwound, Witchypoo, Bikini Kill, and Huggy Bear. Unlike all major labels and many indie labels, profit is not our primary motivation. Kill Rock Stars is dedicated to releasing high quality meaningful recordings in a manner that is fair and respectful to the artists. The system that makes rock stars wants us to believe that we have no choices except the handful they give us but they don't even bother to give us good choices, just lame ones. KRS just wants to give you some good stuff to listen to that actually means something to counteract the empty and boring stuff you see on TRL or whatever.
