FUNGI GIRLS

we're back

2011-10-10T18:51:00.000-07:00

we're back from our hiatus and we have a lot of good shit coming up:

-- lately we have been shelling out new songs for an upcoming album at practice like crazy. hopefully we can get this stuff recorded before the end of the year is up and have it mixed down a little after that. some songs remind me of black sabbath meets the beach boys. i don't know, it's pretty cool.

-- outside of the new songs we have been working on, we have a couple already recorded for a 7" out on a tba announced label that rules.

-- shows!:

- 10/14 @ beerland in austin w/ creationists, the zoltars, and horse + donkey

- 11/11 for steph's birthday bash @ beerland in austin w/ voyageurs, rayon beach, year of the bear, and tba

- 11/12 for shut up and rumble @ overground project in dallas w/ american werewolf academy

- tbd for cavalcade of unpopular music II @ doc's records in fort worth w/ hentai improv orchestra, year of the bear, and spacebeach

see ya'll soon

dwight pullen - by you by the bayou

i found this yesterday and wanted to post it here. creepy as fuck, echoed out country.

first post

2011-01-04T16:17:00.000-08:00

since we don't quite have the money for a real website, and myspace has rapidly transformed into a cesspool of advertisements and messy web design, i decided the next best thing for us would be a blogspot, so here it is. any future announcements, show listings, rants, and/or raves from us can be found here or on our facebook or twitter.

as for announcements, some easy magic, our second full-length, will be out on hozac records in the spring for sure. it has been in the making for quite a while now and we've worked pretty hard on it. we feel it's a big step ahead of our old stuff. a foray into texas psychedelia and beyond. we will have songs, artwork, a video, and the track listing posted very soon.
