In late September (of 2013), DISAPPEARS played a packed-to-the-gills record release show here with co-headlining tourmates WEEKEND and noisy indie-rocking Chicago trio OUTSIDE WORLD. Our pals at the Chicago Reader came by that afternoon to feature the band for their "Soundcheck" series. They filmed the band's soundcheck (duh), along with some live footage later in the night, and sat down with the four members for an interview...Check out the video here:Anyone who knows us knows how much we love Disappears and you'll be hard-pressed to find a better Chicago release than their fourth LP in as many years, Era, released this past August on kranky Records. We're damn excited to welcome the band back to our stage on December 12, when they headline the first night of kranky twenty, a series of concerts all around town that celebrate the past twenty years of that fine Chicago institution. You can purchase tickets here for only $12.
Check it out, y'all. We've got a a bunch of shows that have been on sale for a while, but there are some bad-ass openers and/or headliners being added to the bill. Check that sickimage out and you can catch our drift pretty quick... And buy tickets to each one before you miss out. #NOFOMO201310/24/13: RUNNING added to OOZING WOUND, THE BODY, TOUPEE (9pm; FREE WITH RSVP)10/26: DUSTIN WONG & TAKAKO MINEKAWA added to JACCO GARDNER and MATCHESS (9:30pm; $10)11/8: CAVE opening for WOODEN SHJIPS (9:30pm; $14)12/12: DISAPPEARS headline the Kranky 20th Anniversary Show with LICHENS, IMPLODES (9pm; $12)
