GOLDENBOY NEW 'SLEEPWALKER' LP, FREE "HOLIDAY" TRACK & TOUR
Eenie Meenie Records is excited to announce the release of 'Sleepwalker,' the new album by Shon Sullivan under his Elliott Smith coined nickname Goldenboy. The album was written by Sullivan, demoed in his garage studio and later recorded with full band in two different southern California studios, Intersteller and Leaning Pine. Veteran producer Don Tayler, who mastered all of Elliott Smith's records, sequenced and mastered the album. Fans of Goldenboy's previous releases will find 'Sleepwalker' showcases Sullivan's talent as songwriter and multi instrumentalist who masters piano, cello, guitar and voice for an unfancy yet affecting pop lushness which dovetails perfectly with the understated charms of the band's previous LPs, including 2006's critically acclaimed 'Underneath the Radio.' In an early review of 'Sleepwalker,' Examiner LA said "fans of Radiohead's spiraling and melodic duty-driven shoegaze will enjoy" and called it the "right prescription for
some holiday blues."
Before his solo career, Shon Sullivan, a native of Diamond Bar, CA, first toured and recorded with Spain before Elliott Smith recruited Sullivan to be a member of his band. It was during his four years in Elliott's band that Sullivan also began writing his own music as Goldenboy. As the go-to multi-talented artist in LA, Sullivan has also worked with Neil Finn, Johhny Marr, The Eels, Matt Sharp/The Rentals, Ed Harcourt and many more. Goldenboy have toured with Bright Eyes, Stephen Malkmus, and Grandaddy to name but a few, and will be setting out as a full band for much touring throughout 2011, including shows at SXSW.
CLICK HERE to check out brand new album track "Holiday" which will be available as a bonus track when 'Sleepwalker' is out Feb 8 2011 on Eenie Meenie Records. You can also hear another new song "I Like You Because" on Goldenboy's myspace page.

WALLPAPER NEW MP3 "STUPIDFACEDD" + NEW TOUR!
Ain't no stopping Wallpaper's Eric Frederic. He is a musical genius of massive proportions whose latest and greatest "Stupidfacedd" is set to rival the virality of his very own "Combination Pizza Hut/Taco Bell" which spun 2009 out of control. From the windshield rattling bass to the awkward silence, this is a front to back HIT!

“like an Unsane record filtered through ten years of post-Brooklyn technicolor fun" -VILLAGE VOICE
“this act specializes in servicing ears with dollops of heavily-effected guitars with off-kilter rhythms that sound like a cross between Jesus Lizard, Lightning Bolt, Hella, and Butthole Surfers” - THE DELI
Unstoppable Death Machines are excited to debut the video for "Slumlord, " the title track from their 7" EP (Last Ever Records), today exclusively at ALARM. Director Scott Cramer captured the duo's live allure by merging new age cinematography and technology with a penchant for blurring the line between quality video and inflicted glitches to visually embody the sonic abrasiveness of the distorto-noise punk of UDM. The track is also available as a free download: CLICK HERE to get a free mp3 of "Slumlord."
Formed by brothers Billy [drums] and Mike [bass], the tandem known as Unstoppable Death Machines has jarred DIY venues, rooftops, lofts, sweaty warehouse parties, and art galleries in their native NY . Emerging as the best of the NY noise punks, UDM were recently featured in Village Voice and The Deli and continue to build a great local following. The duo has criss-crossed the States multiple times with self-booked, sweat drenched DIY tours, including shows with Ninjasonik, The Death Set, Zach Hill and more, plus performances at SXSW and CMJ. This month UDM is on tour with fellow Brooklyn art punks Japanther and will kick off 2011 with a tour with Xry.
