I love cheap MP3 download sites. Not because you can get our music super easy and super cheap, but because their “feedbacks” are so fun. Here’s some from http://www.kazeban.biz/album/300494/idiot-stare/welcome-to-babylon/

Fin and I have finished up our remix of “Tombstone” for SMP, and we’re really happy with it. It should tear up some dance floors in the North West sometime soon. We’re not sure what SMP has planned for it, so keep an eye on their site.
The Chemlab gig was a great experience. I got to see a lot of great people that I haven’t seen in forever, and meet a few new ones as well. Jared and company are all true pros and always great to gig with, as well as being fine humans to boot.
Our show went over fantastically. There was plenty of room up on stage, and after some 1st song issues (we only did a line check before going on), the monitor system was all worked out. The room was packed the whole time, and we even got the pit going with “To The Head”. We played “World Destruction” for an encore, and on the very last note of the very last song, my guitar strap broke. It’s like it gave its all for the show and broke right on cue. Weird.
Skeleton Key and USSA played between us and Chemlab, and during that time I found myself being chased out of the kitchen while witnessing a requisition of a metal spoon, stack of plastic cups, and a bottle of First Impression cleaner. Then I watched my friend’s girlfriends dirty dance with each other. Ahem. We then went on a scavenger hunt for the lyrics to “Suicide Jag”, as Jared invited Blayne to join Chemlab on stage later in the night during their set, and Blayne didn’t know the words! I even shot the shit with Jared for a while, who was nice enough to remind me that Idiot Stare had played with Chemlab at the Troub last time they were in L.A. - something I had completely wiped from my memory. Doh.
Lots of cool old Coldwave personalities in attendance as well, all of which came up and said “hey”. It was certainly a “rock star” night.
So, anyway. Chemlab goes on at some silly time like 1am (too many bands on the bill - and we did our part by playing too long - oops!), and THEY FUCKING BRING IT. Big time. I haven’t seen a band own a room like that for a long time. Especially not in Los Angeles and not at one in the morning.
If you were in L.A. last night and didn’t make it out, you missed some wikked Coldwave action!
Fin and I are still wrecking SMP’s “Tombstone”. Weeeeeeee fun. Nice way to break in Logic 8. I think we’re over the hump now with mix, it’s going to be mostly tweaking, mixing and mastering from here on out. Too bad rehearsals for the Chemlab show are going to put off finishing this for a week.

“Idiot Stare’s newest release may be the quintessential coldwave album of the year, if not the decade…”
NICE. Check it out.
We’ve chosen to remix “Tombstone” for their upcoming remix album. So far the swing feel of the song is giving me fits, but I like the tune. Also a good excuse to learn Logic 8 before starting production on istare’s next thing.

They must have liked it so much, they reviewed it again
