AMERICAN SHARKS RECORD 7”, PLAN TOUR, HAVE NO PHOTO WHERE ALL MEMBERS ARE PRESENT

You heard it here first, hard rock party boys American Sharks spent two full days in Pigeon Eater Studios this past weekend, laying down tape for an upcoming four song seven inch. Though the songs currently on their MySpace page were also recorded in the scruffy up-and-comer next door to Walter’s (sorry, not the old Silky’s space – but how much badness would that be?), what they worked on over the weekend wasn’t just a live plug-n-rock session, but full on pro-tools pro-ness. We got the word from recent Shark Jay Merritt, who is now tinkling the ivories for the quintet and will presumably be more audible on the recording then at their Proletariat Halloween show.

Jay also tipped us off that They Who Write of More Skunk than Sublime will be heading to the East Coast this spring for a tour, noting as motor-coachingly massive at it aught to be, just a little jaunt (baby steps). We’ll tie you up with the details as soon as we know em. We have no idea when American Sharks is playing a show next, but presumably, if you throw a house party and point your spotlight towards the heavens, they will be there in mere minutes.
