On the Road: Fatal Flying Guilloteens

Hide your shampoo bottles oh people of the South, Houston’s Fatal Flying Guilloteens left this morning for a three city mini-tour of Old Dixie. After meeting up with guitarist, sometime vocalist and Philly transplant Brian McManus at the Birmingham airport, the quintent, who haven’t played a show since November’s CMJ Festival, will try hard not to get into a situation where they have to write their own letter from a local jail (RECOGNIZE: Black History Month).

From Alabama, the Guilloteens, along with tour-mates Black Lips and Dark Meat will travel to Atlanta and Athens before returning home weeks before a full SXSW performance schedule. Joining them on the road is can’t- go- a- week- without- his-work- appearing- on- the-chron.com- frontpage photographer Jordan Graber and driver/van owner/Bring Back the Guns shredertainer Erik Bogle. Hopefully their transport and things in general does better than on their last tour.

In other Guilloteens news, they have recently completed the recording for their next album, due out in May on French Kiss Records. No word yet on a title or tracklisting, but if their NSFW website revamp is any indication, they haven’t forgotten how to do nasty Right On!
