Genetic Misprints Collaberation Album

Mute Here,

Just a quick note to say that Genetic Misprints have been in the studio for the past two weeks recording an album with UK musician 'Dr. Love'. The good Doctor will feature on this album as a guest musician and providing some vocals. I spoke to GM today about the sound of the new album and they said 'insanely insane', and after much deliberation settled on 'more random, but less random'. So I'm not sure what to expect. But knowing those guys it shall be comedy gold nonetheless.

Some Details About The Album (So Far):

Title: 'The Sun Is Hot' -(Aparently from a lyric in a new song)
Tracks: All I know So Far Is That There Is 9 Of Them
Running Time: About 25 Minutes

Release Date: Should Be Released and Available To Download By The 6th Of March

information: The difficult 3rd album from this british duo, better that 'Gorilla Warefare'. Can stand up as one of the funniest albums over the last couple of months, very similar to 'Viva La Cheese' but that is for its benefit. Includes an interview with a real 'Rock' band, a hip hop version of cheese (recorded too late for the 'Value Pack EP' but still tasty), Lots of Skits and the 11 minute epic B'ak'tun produced by half of the misprints, and its just amazing. Check out Darren Midwinter Music for more info on B'ak'tun and Darren's Future Projects: HERE.

Smashing Grandpa- The Symbol Demos

Smashing Grandpa- The Symbol Demos

release date: 2010

track list:
1. 1- 4.39
2. 2- 5.40
3. 3- 2.34

information: innherited from tom, these demos were recorded in late 1992 by just me (Muteantowl) and Tom Thumb, Pre Smashing Grandpa. It was these demos that originally attracted the Brainz to join the group. Only 2 tapes ever existed of this, I didn't know that Tom got them transferred to disc until abput a week ago. Extremely rare, gives me shivers everytime. I can't even remeber the names of the tracks. The symbol was literally scribbles on the paper case the cd was in and so I thought it was fitting.

information: a MASSIVE milestone for the site. Our very 1st current release. From a couple of good friends in the uk who are hoping to work with some Smashing Grandpa stuff. This album is hilarious, the album was made literally for pennies, 100% improvised on the spot. They said that they never went over anything twice. Some amazing bitas and some not so. Full of skits, songs and fun. Definately reccomend 'Cheese' the very first track they recorded, that came out beautifully. If you can look past the low production values you will find one of the funniest albums of all time. Sounds like the Left Rights with a hint of Plastic Love Tool with a massive helping of Tenacious D.

MASSIVE UPDATE!!!

Muteantowl Here!!!! 

I have just got off of the phone with a brand new music act who want to use some of our tracks in thier upcoming album, in excange they agreed that the album will be uploaded here for all to download FREE! Rob mentioned the news in a previous post but I wanted to comfirm it is happening!!!

As of now all I know is that they want to us 'The Untitled' off 'Jelly Bean Custard...' but I offered them the use of any song, so all they have to do is ask.

THIS IS ALSO ANOTHER INVITATION TO ANY MUSICIANS/ REMIXERS WHO WOULD LIKE TO WORK WITH THE ENTIRE SMASHING GRANDPA DISCOGRAPHY- TO EMAIL ROB AT THESMELLOFCLOUDS@HOTMAIL.CO.UK. Obviously we will have to wait for this band to make thier choices but I am always looking for new takes on our existing catalogue.

Also even more excitingly last week at the Tom Thumb memorial service in Ottowa, Canada I met with Tom's widow Karen, who said that Tom Had a box full of items related to the band and that they may be of use in preservation of his memory or.... well i'm really not sure but I am excited to see as no-one collected Smashing Grandpa memorobelia and items like Tom.

The box is being dropped off by Karen at the weekend so I will be able to update you on some of the items I have recieved.

Muteantowl.

NB. Loving the new designs Rob! Check out his work at www.thesmellofclouds.com. He has done a shitload for the blog and for the band over the years- mostly unpaid, and we sure are greatful. Cheers.

Update & News

Hey all, Rob here (Not Muteantowl). I'm the guy that maintains the blog and has done all of the smashing grandpa artwork.

Riiiiiight, it might look a bit plain up there at the banner but I will sort that soon promise, I have been very very busy these past couple of months mainly starting up a new video production company, attending the Tom Thumb memorial service and working with new acts for the record.

I can announce now that within the next few weeks a couple of my friends from the UK will be finishing thier debut album, as of now is still untitled, and confusingly so is the act. I will keep you updated. I have currently only heard 3 songs off the album but it will contain 20+ tracks. There will also be a single up soon to promote the album. All I can say for certain is that this is completely diffferent from Smashing Grandpa.

Rob.

Site Update

Quick update time. I am just working on a new layout for the blog, and new music from other artists to go on the blog. It will all happen very soon. Its not over yet.

1. Retropolis- 4.05
2. Infinity=Nil- 2.29
3. Travel Sickness- 2.54
4. El Diablo- 3.01
5. 46664- 3.02

information: our very final release, released by me and the Brainz on the 1 year anniversary of Tom Thumbs death. All of the song were going to be released on the upcoming album, that will never get made. But we put 3 of them on 'Something For Nothing' as they were songs that Tom had worked predominantly on, 46664 and Travel Sickness were the two songs that Tom was travelling on the train to record with us, and so these tracks do not feature Tom as he wrote both of the tracks, but never performed his section- leving just me and the Brainz to do the honours. The white version was our most popular album and was definately performed the most live. So there we go, our discography... enjoy.

We all love you tom R.I.P.

Smashing Grandpa- It's All Something For Nothing- The Greatest Bits

10. The Final Broadcast- 1.56
11. Game_Over!- 3.01
12. Tropical Delight- 4.30

information: what all our hard work added up to, due to be released 2 weeks after tom's death in a tragic train accident, to complete recording on another album after this one. It was originally going to be called 'Greatest Bits and Some Other Shit' but we decided on 'It's All Something For Nothing' because that is what Tom chose to have engraved on his gravestone. R.I.P. That catastrophe has become known to fans and friends alike as The great train robbery, because that accident robbed us of a friend, a mentor, a husband and a father.

Upload Issues

Due to unforeseen issues with my mac, my entire hard drive was rendered corrupt- therefore there has been a large gap in my upload schedule. HOWEVER, after contacting half of the adresses in the old Smashing Grandpa fansite mailing list I now have A FULL COLLECTION of our music, including some live bootlegs so uploading will resume very soon.
