New Site for Music

There is a new site that will host the Drill Alaska music. It is http://drillalaska.bandcamp.com/

It looks nice, and it's user friendly. You can choose from several formats to download songs (Flac, mp3, acc, ogg, alac). The album What about the Caribou is still available for FREE download.

So from here on out the music will be posted there, the information will be posted here, and everything will be reposted on Facebook. If you like Twitter you can follow us @DrillAlaska. It just feeds from the Facebook posts.

In other news, demos are being constructed, and sounds are being unraveled. Truly, a work in progress.

Until next time, here's something to chew on. It's a pretty rad live performance by PB&J

MP3s available via Soundcloud

Giving people options; that's what we're all about. [well, we may be about more than that]

So our album What about the Caribou is available for FREE in two different audio formats via Soundcloud. If you're not interested in the uncompressed clarity of .wav files [or the larger size of the files], we now have made 256kbps MP3's, which take up less space and sound pretty good. All the songs are exactly the same, but there may be a few dynamic differences that some of you audiophiles may notice.

Who knows. Maybe the next step will be vinyl, but then we'd probably have to put a price tag on it.

House Show - Cinco de Mayo

This past Wednesday, 5 May 2010, we played out first show since the summer of 2006. It was part of a house show in our hometown, Anderson, IN. The entire evening went very well. Lots of great people showed up to watch. Lots of good music was performed.

We kicked off the evening by playing one of our best live sets ever. We spiced things up a bit in between songs with audio clips from Boondock Saints, High Fidelity, Burn After Reading, and The Princess Bride. We performed all four tracks from What about the Caribou with good form. We also made the debut of one of our newer compositions [yet to be named] and finished things off with a bit of pyromania.

After that we were treated to performances by Apatherapy and CJ Rush along with others playing a few numbers. Probably the biggest win of the evening was the neighbors being cool enough to not call the cops. We'd like to thank our friend Rion for hosting the festivities, and CJ Rush for drawing the bulk of the crowd!

If you weren't aware, our album, What about the Caribou, is available for FREE download. Just click on the download and save them to your computer. Then you can put them on your ipod.

Plans are in the works for new material and new recordings. Keep your ear to the ground for the rumble of Drill Alaska.

Keep Drilling,
