Halloween night of 2015 Portland was hit with a huge storm. Water couldn’t drain fast enough off the Oddy roof over the “Grey Room.” The roof collapsed. No one was hurt, even the damage to the equipment was minimal. It’s taken a long long time to clean up and now construction is underway. And Courtney Taylor-Taylor is going to be showing you some of the progression in the coming weeks on our socials.

This is a pic of where it starts. I got myself a Pro-Tools rig for my laptop almost exactly three years ago and began recording in earnest. I have a photo of a huge gin martini from that day as I ended up super fucked up at a 60’s strip mall’s bar in the burbs. Happened to be where Guitar Center may yet live. I had some dude in a band I met drive me home in my old Cadillac and crash in the spare room.
For three years that’s about how regimented my life has been making this thing. We get a lot of werk done at our studio but mostly oops, party. Pete’s basement is where real discipline happens. I finish a lot of lyrics there as it is very monastic.
I guess that’s it. We chip away for an epoch then somehow realize it’s done. -ctt.
Distortland pre-orders are available now at our webstore or on iTunes.
Plus, we have some great physical bundles and a bootleg LP available exclusively through Dine Alone’s webstore. This bootleg LP, I don’t wanna toot my own horn, but this one’s a real beaut, so you might wanna pick that up while you can.

Oregon Public Broadcasting‘s Aaron Scott dropped by the Odditorium the other day to talk David Bowie. Here’s the audio:
Our friend David Bowie has left our planet. But his wit, style, and passion remain in the hearts & souls of all Earthlings. Love you David.
The Dandy Warhols at Niceto Club, Buenos Aires, Argentina – it was a gas.
“Remember stage dives and crowd surfs? They still do that in Buenos Aires. I had to get a piece of that action! Holy fuck that was a good show!” – Zia.
…more after the jump…
