ok friends, go ahead and brace yourself for about a million “the world is a X place and i am X” memes because The World Is A Beautiful Place And I Am No Longer Afraid To Die have a new record coming out. and just to be clear, it’s a new record, but not exactly new songs. Assorted Works (abbreviated to just Ass Works, if you like) is a collection of b-sides and songs from splits that aren’t found on any of their other LPs. it’s a double album with 20 songs on it; get the silverware because we’re feasting tonight. or actually, we’re feasting on october 25, when Ass Works is scheduled for release.
here is the tracklist for the double album:
“I Will Be OK. Everything
“Mega Steve”
“Bread For Brett”
“Wait… What?”
“To The Janitor, To The King”
“To Miss Catherine (A Birthday Gift. I’m Sorry I Can’t Do Better. But Still…)”
“blank #6”
“Be Neon With Me”
“Beverly Wyatt”
“Gig Life (Lathe Cut Version)”
“Fat Heaven”
“A Note From The Author February 1st To The Author January 1st”
“We Carry Knives”
“From The Crow’s Nest On Fire Street”
“Outer Heaven”
“Even More Forever”
“Katamari Duquette”
“Chest & Shirt”
“Smoke & Felt”
“Body Without Organs”
i think from their many EPs, i only own Death to New Years and Long Live Happy Birthday, so many of these tracks are totally new to me. and for everyone who has been bothering Chris Teti with “yo when we gettin’ a new album dogg”, Assorted Works should tide you over while they work on their follow-up to 2017’s Always Foreign.
