New Album Info!

Just a quick note to announce that we will be starting work on our as-yet-untitled second full-length this summer, with JASON CADDELL on board as co-producer. Some of you might know Jason from his recent work producing bands like Troubled Hubble and Metropolitan. Some of you might know him as the guitarist from the frickin' Dismemberment Plan, one of my favorite bands ever and a huge influence on Get Him Eat Him. We'll be doing some tracking with Jason at Inner Ear Studio, and hopefully at some other fantastic recording studios, as well.

We will soon be announcing a big honkin' summer tour, including a bunch of shows with the awesome Evangelicals, whose debut album is coming out this summer on Misra. Excitement abounds!!

New EP!

Only a few days until we head out on tour! Please come check us out -- there are tourdates in the previous post, and more details at http://www.gethimeathim.com/shows.htm

In other exciting news, we have just finished up a 4-song EP to coincide with our tour. It is called "Do As I Tell You," and it is being released by Catbird Records, the official record label of our favorite MP3 Blog, The Catbirdseat (http://www.catbirdseat.org). You can pre-order the EP at http://www.catbirdrecords.com/cbr004.html. Or, you can buy it from us on tour!! It's a limited run of 200, and the art is really really really neat. You can find out more about the EP, and listen to the first track, "Exposure," at http://www.gethimeathim.com/music.htm.

Finally, we are thrilled to announce a stunning new addition to our line of apparel. Head over to http://www.gethimeathim.com/shop/, and check out the new "Octopus" shirt designed by our very own Mr. Jeff Wood. We have also restocked our Raf-designed "Seals" shirt in freakishly small sizes. We still have some "Heraldry" shirts in stock, too, but not for long!

New News Blog!

Welcome to our news blog! Why a blog?

A) Easier to update
B) Easier to keep track of via RSS, etc

The big news right now is that our album is done. It is called Geography Cones, and it is going to be released in early August by the amazing Absolutely Kosher Records. More info and hopefully some MP3's will be up soon -- the album is at mastering right now, but should be back within the next couple weeks. We also took a whole bunch of pictures during our recording session, some of which we will post here shortly.

In other news, we are currently hard at work booking a summer tour - we have already booked three shows in July with our fabulous labelmates The Wrens and our fabulous labelmates Sparrow, and there's a good chance we'll be playing a bunch more shows with other bands we really like, too!

Finally, our new shop section is fully functional -- we encourage all of our fans to check it out and, uh, buy lots of crap.

Best,
Matt / Get Him Eat Him
