Dear "The Sartorialist",
I didn’t know fashion was just a combination of any of these things:
- Wearing brown oxfords without socks
- Being a beautiful woman
- Being a skeezy dude

Thanks for the update on fashion, internet!
Sincerely,
Thom from the Whiskers (who are releasing a great EP in two days.)
Two (2) New Songs
On October 6th, Awkwardcore records will ship out a two-song “EP” by The Whiskers called The Current & Cob and Pen. It will include those two songs. It will not be available for free; it will only be officially released as a compact disc.
We have exciting news about a new Whiskers release, but not a peep until the specifics are settled upon. Just a few days I promise.
If you spend some mass of time around people who work on computers a lot, the silliest part of this week, in early September, in the year two-thousand and nine, was the gradual realization by you and your colleagues that, no, there wasn’t some problem with their browser or zoom settings; Google got slightly bigger, and that’s just how it’s going to be now.
The Lyrics to "Marsh Blood" (found on The Lifted Brow 4)
This heart of gold getting stabbed by silverware is pumping iron ink on these magnetic skies and that stand up guy electrified in his chair is screaming out all the names of the traitors in disguise as he gasps for air. And the bloody bloody bird—you know she wants to chirp and you know that she always eats her words and says, “I’ll be here in this business ‘til I die and I know that I totally can survive out there alone—all alone in this bloody crooked horrible marsh.”

B.) He’s in disguise as he gasps for air and the bloody bird she chirps and cries and she eats her words as she flies over floods. “I know everybody’s heard about the bird; everybody’s heard about the bird bird bird, bird bird’s the word (OH WELL-A)”
A.) This heart of gold is getting stabbed by silverware and pumping iron ink on these magnetic skies and that stand up guy electrified in that chair is screaming all the names of the traitors in disguise as he gasps for air.
TWIMC:
The Whiskers’ upcoming album has been in development hell for over a year. There have been songs that have come and gone; there are no sure things. In fact, the eldest tune is being re-recorded entirely. I don’t know when the record will be finished.
The good news, FWIMC, is this: Hazel Santino has created something substantially influential (at least in my eyes) in the form of the album’s cover. The fire lit under us looks something like this:
