If you are thinking of ordering some fine Dandys merch this holiday season (like this fun/funny Xmas sweater shirt from 2011), take note: the deadline for U.S. orders to be delivered before the Christmas holiday is Friday, December 14th.
And, as the merchandise office will be closed December 21-January 7, all orders placed during that period will not be processed and filled until after the office opens in the New Year.

I was just talking about this to a friend of mine, the ghost who lives in my apartment, and she was all “when’s that Anton remix of Autumn Carnival comin’ out, I gots things to do??” I said I didn’t know, I only work here, and please, please put some clothes on, ghost.
Here it is, though! I bought it, and I work here!

How could the notorious Anton Alfred Newcombe (he of Brian Jonestown Massacre fame) have never remixed a song by your The Dandy Warhols? This is a question that was asked, and then immediately rectified. Voilà! Anton’s remix of ‘The Autumn Carnival,’ here in this SPIN article, which also mentions DIG a lot.

One of our favorite moments this month in Australia included a visit to Phillips Shirts’ Archive a Shop by Phillips in Melbourne. We had a blast! Thanks for the threads, you guys.

A whole lotta youse guys failed miserably my test to take the day off and have done your best imitation of a clamor monster (muppet??) for FREE Christmas songs – even though, honestly, you should have these already, what’d ya just delete the files every year, what’s wrong with you??
The popular tune “Little Drummer Boy” (about state-run drum circles, which is a thing I’m sure they will do some sketch about on “Portlandia”, now that I gave ’em the idea) is from 1994, and this “Silent Night” tune (a song about murdering Santas and naked ladies, if Google image search is to be believed) we did from all the way back in 2011, before weed was legal in Washington state. Download these tunes for zero dollars as xmas.dandywarhols.com. Send so to your friends! SO EASY TO GIVE!
As you were.

Spinner is premiering the latest video from The Dandy Warhols, the Thomas Rhazi directed “The Autumn Carnival.” This video is the third released by the band in promotion of their latest album, This Machine, and was written by Dandy frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor and Bauhaus/Love & Rockets’ David J.
“The song came from David J and I discussing Something Wicked This Way Comes,” Courtney says. “The theme here is how, as we age, our view of youth and our feelings regarding what it means become paper thin and almost totally unrealistic.”

Alrighty.
