As usual, the Shouters and I completely underestimated the time it would take to mix down the album. We ended up missing The Grow Fangs! / Problems that Fix Themselves minitour show last night, but the 13-track debacle that was the Almanac Shouters’ first full-length album is completely mixed and mastered to the band’s satisfaction. The jams sound good, if I do say. Of course, if you don’t believe me, you can always check out ‘A Walking Song’ on the band’s Myspace.

The Shouters will be playing the Trumbullplex tonight in Detroit, Mi, and selling their newly-cut album for a reasonable price. Then, tomorrow night, the official hometown CD release is happening at 9pm at the No Fun House right along with Chicken Little and Our Lady… . It’s gonna be a hootin’ and hollerin’ (shoutin’?) good time.

Well, I’ll be yelling anyway.
