Apr 15, 09:44 AMHorse Shit (it's hipster without the "p")
I can barely take it anymore. The amount of horseshit music out there on the internet and how the hipsters eat it up like it's honey flavored oatmeal.
Hey guess what dude, my dead grandmother just started this crazy new folk/indie/electronic project that she totally recorded on garage band(you know, that computer program that plays the intruments for you so you don't have to actually learn anything). Yeah man, she's totally gonna be the next MGMT. So hip. So sweet. Totally boss... soooo bosss. -
Mar 17, 02:25 PMEuro Tour / Merch sale...
Greetings friends and fans,
As always, thanks for your all your support. A few updates from Lovedrug-land:
1. Sucker Punched (alt. LP)
We hope everyone has enjoyed “Sucker Punched”, the alternate album we made available on Noise Trade in January. If you are unaware, Sucker Punched is a full-length alternate version of every song from the regular studio release of The Sucker Punch Show. It’s the featured download at Noise Trade through the end of March, after which time it will no longer be available in the United States. So if you haven't grabbed it yet be, do so this month HERE.
2. Merch Sale!!
Thanks to everyone who came out for the headlining dates these past two months. As it turns out, we have some extra shirts leftover and are having a sale the next few weeks to help fund our flights and other expenses for our first European tour! (see below). All shirts and CDs are on sale and include FREE shipping. So if you need some new threads, and feel like lending your support, please check out the shop and order something at the main website or myspace.
3. European Festivals
The Sucker Punch Show will release in Europe this spring and we’ve been invited to play a number of dates in Europe in June including several bigger festivals in Germany and Switzerland. We are extremely excited to make this venture and share with you our findings abroad! We should have more updated details posting over the next month or so. In the meantime, any support you can show us by purchasing a discounted shirt, a CD, or the "Sucker Punched" LP on Noise Trade will go to helping us get to share our music with the world. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Lovedrug -

Jul 26 2008, 12:00 AMCash Filled HammerI've come to terms with the fact lately that I haven't really given you all a fair shake in this game here. This malingering cupidity that we all find ourselves surrounded by on a daily basis is becoming so disconcerting that I really just don't know how to act anymore. For Pete's sake, I too WANT to be a part of it! And to what avail? If you scream, no one is listening. If you cry, no one will comfort you. If you are burning inside, no one will put out the flames. So I say let it all fall apart. Because when gasoline is $100 a gallon and a loaf of bread becomes a luxury that only the wealthy can partake upon, well then folks, the time will have arrived. And to the person who throws the first fucking stone; I will bow down to you and call you my lord. Regardless, I'll probably keep trying to put out records and make music... even though no one will give two shits. So to all you suicidal children of the next generation, get on with it. To us, the doomed, we'll just keep on ignoring the huge cash-filled hammer that is coming down upon us. And to the rest of you, go fuck yourselves.
Sincerely,
Michael and the BoysP.S.
Our new record is called the Sucker Punch Show.
It comes out Oct. 28th. We hope you choke on it. -

Jul 19 2008, 12:00 AMDear Miss Baxter,It so very nice to hear from you via telegram while away on my pilgrimage to the land of Schnarbel. Oddly enough my travels were cut rather short upon the realization that I had indeed left my oven on back home. Upon my return I found that not only had my house burned to the ground but also the several surrounding homes as well in the two acre lot. Unfortunately, as it was apparently my fault, the neighbors have become rather sore with me and in fact have demanding some kind of retribution be in order. Hence, my letter to you today. I am currently being held hostage in a dungeon of a relatively small size. My nose is burning from the odor of scorched flesh and my arms have gone numb from the tight of my binding ropes. It has come to my attention that my neighbors were, in all actuality, quite serious about "killing me". So, as you always seem to have an advise that is both sound and wise, I thought I ask you what you think I might do given my particular predicament. To catch you up on things; Thus far my thumb has been removed with gardening sheers. Bob from 314 was the one responsible for that one. Becky, from 2 houses down, burnt the hair off my head with an acetylene torch, and Tom, who lives.. I mean lived.. in the green house across the way, was quite inventive when he pulled out my fingernails and made me eat them. Needless to say there wasn't much protein in the nails and I have become rather hungry over the past week and a half that this has been going on. Regardless, any suggestions you might have would be lovely as always, and I do so miss our chats and lovely tea times we so oft took on the back patio near the cottage. Pending my situation here works itself out of course, we shall have to revisit those days and indeed catch up on old times.
Sincerely
Mr. Halvesbeard -
Jun 21 2008, 12:00 AMSometimes You gotta Let it All OutI woke up this morning with a mild case of depression and general nausea. No, it was not alcohol induced. It was induced by God. That's right, God did this to me. He is fucking with me. I knew it. From the day I left bible school in a fit of nearly-raped rage I knew that someday this bastard would come for me and totally ruin my life. Damn it all. And now what do we do? Look at the gas prices for Christ's sake! Is that not a testament enough to the complete and utter failure of anything sane?! I for one have decided to live out my days on the edge of a cliff some where off the coast of Porte Rico. I'll grow cabbage and eat burnt marshmallows with my girlfriend till the end of our days. It will be fucking gorgeous.
On second thought... this entire statement might have been a bit extreme and slightly depraved. In the immortal words of the late Kurt Cobain, "never mind".
P.S. The marshmallow part would be nice though.
Ok, bye.
