The long-time side band of Faith No More keyboardist Roddy Bottum, in which he’s a vocalist/guitarist will be releasing their new album ‘Feel The Sound’ on the 31st of January. It will be Imperial Teen’s first album since 2007.
Ten years since their last album The Mark Of Cain are back with new single ‘Barkhammer’ from the soon to be released album ‘Songs of the Third & Fifth’.
Triple J’s Home & Hosed programme debuted ‘Barkhammer’ on national airwaves last night and the single will be available for free from The Mark Of Cain’s website for one day only on Monday 5th December.
So Patton has finally managed to get MC over to this side of the globe, did a quick bit of searching and can’t find any further dates yet but I’d imagine that more may show up.
okay the title really gives you everything, this is pretty much a copy and paste from Billy’s twitter:
“This is kinda cool, my Talking Book project as the soundtrack to Rebuild 2:” http://www.kongregate.com/games/sarahnorthway/rebuild-2
Officially titled ‘Music From The Film and Inspired By the Book The Solitude of Prime Numbers (La Solitudine Dei Numeri Primi)’ the music was recorded by Mike Patton for the 2010 movie ‘The Solitude of Prime Numbers’ which was based on Paolo Giordano’s book from 2008.

Sorry guys, been busy and have been neglecting you lately I know…..also copped some shite from someone I used to respect regarding stubb which made me question the future of the site briefly.
Anyway, have been posting news to twitter though so if you don’t follow stubb yet, please do.
Thought I would post a quick round up of what has been happening lately:
Trey announces on facebook a whole stack of new Secret Chiefs 3 tour dates along with the tip that there will be an extensive U.S tour with dates to be announced shortly.
It’s the party end of the year (well it was when I started this post) and it’s time for the first ever inaugural Stubbadub top 10 albums of the year list!
Even without any significant contributions from Mike Patton this year, which can be directly attributed to a certain reunion tour, there have been many great Stubbadub related releases to tickle our ear drums.
So lets get started. Counting down from 10 to 1:
10. Zu – Carboniferous (Mike Patton) - Italian metallers Zu released their latest album Carboniferous via Mike Patton’s label Ipecac Recordings. Mike appears on a couple of tracks (Soulympics and Orc) along with Buzz from the Melvins (Chthonian).
09. Shrinebuilder – Self Titled (Dale Crover) - Featuring Dale Crover of The Melvins fame on drums and Neurosis frontman Scott Kelly on Guitar, Shrinebuilder released their stoner fueled debut album in October.
07. Jello Biafra And The Guantanamo School Of Medicine – The Audacity of Hype (Billy Gould) – The latest installment from outspoken ex-Dead Kennedys’ vocalist, Eric Reed Boucher aka Jello Biafra is a kick in the sack from start to finish. The album features Billy Gould on bass and one has to assume that he would have toured with the band if he hadn’t been side tracked by the recent reformation of Faith No More. Hopefully he can make the next tour (and they bring it to Australia )
06. Chuck Mosley and the VUA – Will Rap over Hard Rock for Food (Chuck Mosley) – It’s been a while since Chuck released anything of significance, but it was worth the wait. A good album over all and the rework of Faith No More’s We Care a Lot (Featuring special guest Mr Roddy Bottum on keys) is very interesting and worth grabbing the album for alone.
05. Umlaut – Self Titled (Bar McKinnon) – Bar’s first release since becoming an Aussie. Recently toured with Les Claypool. A very tidy album all round with some very nice Bungle-esque/Secret Chiefs 3 moments.
04. Isis – Wavering Radiant (Ipecac Recordings) – The latest installment from rockers Isis as usual does not disappoint.
02. The Fantastic Terrific Munkle – Music to Dance To (Danny Heifetz) – It is very difficult to keep up with what Danny is working on nowdays as he does not have any established online presence, but the best thing he is involved with at the moment is the Munkle band. Check this album out
01. John Zorn – O’o (Trevor Dunn) – The latest in Zorn’s “Romance” series and the follow up to 2008′s “The Dreamers”, this is an amazing record and by far my album of the year.
Hopefully next year we will see the highly anticipated release of Mike Patton’s Mondo Cane, possibly Crudo and fingers crossed another Fantomas would be most welcome.
Over the years I have made some stubb related ring tones and I thought I would up ‘em and share them. They are MP3′s but it’s pretty easy to convert them to iPhone format if need be (hint: add them to itunes, right click in itunes and create aac version).
To enter simply follow us on twitter (@stubbadub) and tweet:

Once you have tweeted the above I will send you a number. You may only enter once but feel free to retweet as many times as you want . After a little while I will close the comp, generate a random number via random.org and announce the winner.
So I have been trying to work out how I can continue to build the stubbadub community and I have always felt that comments can be difficult to have a good in depth conversation with others members. One idea I had was to add a mini forum system to try and make it easier for people to come back and continue the conversation.
So I have just opened the stubbadub forums up to you guys to play with and hopefully interact, get to know, have in-depth discussions/arguments/flame-wars with each other.
At the end of each new post from now on I will be linking to the forum topic of the same name. You will still be able to comment on the actual post, this is just an additional, more in depth way of discussing the post. Hopefully everyone can jump in and enjoy.
You will have to be a registered stubbadub user to post. If anyone has any problems please comment here or submit an enquiry.
