2012

This year should see the release of the 4th Millipede full-length if all goes according to plan. What I can tell you so far is that it's coming out on Install and will be a vinyl only release most likely with a digital download. Should be fairly different sounding from Realms while still recognizable as Millipede material. So far about 1/3 of the album is finished with work scheduled to resume this week after a lengthy break from recording. It has no title as yet, not even a working one.

In other news the second installment of the Brian Grainger & Millipede Play Ancient Hylian Folk Songs was released in December. It was intended to mark the 25th anniversary of the Legend of Zelda videogame series which has provided inspiration in the past for the first handful of releases under the Millipede moniker (Hyrule, Death Mountain, Hylian Folk Songs Vol. 1). It was available through Milieu Music as a limited edition cassette. Most of these are gone but some may still be available through Brian Grainger's bandcamp page here.

And finally, there are still copies of the split tape with Neon Viking Funeral available through Failed Recordings for very cheap ($3!!!). I have also contributed a song called "Rotten Crown" to a noise comp they're releasing with a bunch of other Tennessee noise artists which will be coming out pretty soon.

REALMS!

The third Millipede full-length, Realms, is out now on Dead Pilot Records. Click the link to go get it on CD. Green vinyl version to follow later in the year. Get it here. 10 tracks approximately 40 minutes of harsh noise shoegaze mastered by Norwegian noise legend Lasse Marhaug with artwork by myself with Anna Davenport and Will Evans.

The also long time coming split tape between myself and now defunct Chattanooga, TN harsh noise terrorists Neon Viking Funeral is out now on Failed Recordings. Click the link and give $3 and it's all yours. Limited to 49 quickly going copies.

Update - November 2010

Realms is still in the works. Coming out on Dead Pilot in the near future. In the meantime I'll be posting a free album on bandcamp of material from the sessions for Death Mountain, Full Bloom, and Realms soon so be on the lookout for that. I also have a Facebook page and there is now a link in the sidebar if you want to check that out.

Also, the Myspace site is pretty much dead. It's still there for those that would like to check it out but I won't be updating it from here on out.

Millipede Bandcamp

There is now a Millipede Bandcamp page. I'm going to start using this exclusively instead of Myspace I think. It has its own problems but at least the design aesthetic is far better and there are no ads on the page. I've put up the out of print Hyrule cassette with all new artwork for free download. Even more great stuff is coming. Full Bloom is still available from Install and Realms is coming through Dead Pilot. Already working on the next album but progress is slow and will probably halt soon after the birth of my daughter...at least for a little while. That's all for now.

Realms

The forthcoming Millipede album on Dead Pilot is now going to be called Realms. I think this is a much better fit for the album in general. The tracklist is going to be as follows:

1. Heathen Horde
2. Magma
3. King Haggard
4. Destroyers & Usurpers
5. Houndstooth
6. Temporal Void
7. What Was True
8. Down To The Depths
9. Skyy Blue
10. Gateway To Another World

Lots of other stuff in the works as well:
split 7" with German Sheperd
split tape with Neon Viking Funeral
collaborative tape with MOTH

Stop To Smell The Flowers

So far, it seems everyone is digging Full Bloom.

Foxy Digitalis gave it an 8 out of 10!

Forest Gospel's mind was equally blown.

The Knoxville News Sentinel even gave me some love. Apparently they only miss you when you're gone....as in moving to a city roughly two hours away.
