Bastard of 1967 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Yeah. The apple didn't fall far from the tree with that one did it? Even better is that Spy Rock Memories has come full circle. 25-ish years ago, Larry approached Billie and asked him to come make an album with him. Now 25-ish years later Billie approaches Larry and says "come make an album with me." Awesome. Just simply awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LauraG Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Recent updates on Larry's twitter account: First track done for #TheThingThatAteLarryLivermore! Can't tell you who it is, but will give a hint: they're from Iowa and are awesome!! Looks like we've got at least two Canadian bands on board for #TheThingThatAteLarryLivermore. Maybe one or two more! Sounds interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alaniluau Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Golly, that artwork is masterful. I've always been a fan of Patrick's style, and not only because it evokes sweet thoughts of the early 90s. I absolutely love the Spy Rock tee, too. Emerald Triangle represent!

Overjoyed Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Does anyone know if it'll be available on CD later or is it only vinyl? In their current shop there are only vinyls, doesn't Adeline have any CD at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sara_gd Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I won't be getting the bundle because I don't have a vinyl player (and I find buying songs digitaly really stupid), I hope I can buy the t-shirt on its own later, because it's really cool! and the CD of course, from what I heard it sounds great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desertrose Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Larry Livermore And Adeline Records Announce Punk Rock Comp “The Thing That Ate Larry Livermore” Adeline Records has announced the release of The Thing That Ate Larry Livermore, a new music compilation featuring songs written exclusively for the compilation by some of the best and brightest bands in punk rock, on May 29, 2012. “When Billie Joe asked me to put together this compilation, my first reaction was to say, ‘Absolutely not.’ I was too busy with other projects, and besides, I’d been saying for years that I was done with the music business, that people should take me out and shoot me if I ever showed any sign of wanting to get back into it,” said Livermore. “But then I realized that this was an opportunity to do for a whole new crop of bands what we’d been able to accomplish at Lookout back in the 80s and 90s, which was to bring exciting and passionate music to the attention of a public that might otherwise never get to hear it. Once I thought about it in that light, it was impossible to say no.” The Thing That Ate Larry Livermore is compiled and produced by Larry Livermore, co-founder and longtime head of Lookout Records, the influential East Bay label that introduced the world to bands like Green Day, Operation Ivy, Rancid, Screeching Weasel and many more. In addition to his work in the music industry, Livermore is also renowned as a writer and critic, having been a longtime contributor to magazines like Maximum Rocknroll, Punk Planet, Hit List and numerous others. He also authored the book Spy Rock Memories, detailing the origins of Lookout Records in the backwoods of Northern California. The Thing That Ate Larry Livermore features songs from 16 of punk rock’s most exciting future heroes. From the East Coast there’s Night Birds, a dynamic four-piece who breathe a whole new life into the early 80s SoCal sound typified by Agent Orange and the Adolescents; from across the country Emily’s Army, steeped in influences as diverse as The Clash, The Beatles, Elvis Costello and Operation Ivy, literally represent the next generation of East Bay punk rock. And from in between the coasts it boasts anthemic, singalong punk rock from the likes of The Copyrights and Dear Landlord, the new take on 90s punk from Cincinnati’s Mixtapes, the fresh and fierce female vocals of Iowa City’s Lipstick Homicide, and 11 more similarly awesome bands representing localities and scenes around the country. Livermore adds, “I chose the bands using the same standards I used when I was at Lookout: I looked for those bands with a certain heart and soul that sets them apart from the literally thousands of run of the mill bands out there, the heart and soul that makes them capable of giving voice not just to their own ideals and visions, but to those of a generation.” http://staticmultimedia.com/music/music-news/larry-livermore-and-adeline-records-announce-punk-rock-comp-the-thing-that-ate-larry-livermore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
