Check out the new video of “Walk On Selfishly,” the lead single from *The 65’s* debut CD _Strike Hard!_.

Directed by Brian Fitzpatrick, the video is set in an underground punk club in Suburban New Jersey. And if we may say so, it’s a kickass song.

Check out “Girlfriends,” the second single from *Guy Capecelatro III*’s forthcoming album _North for the Winter_.

Featuring guest vocals by Jarid del Deo of Unbunny (to which Guy is an occasional contributor), “Girlfriends” tells the story of loves lost in a wistful, pensive sort of way.

_North for the Winter_ is due out February 21, 2012.

Guy Capecelatro III • “Girlfriends” by dromedary

We’ve admired the members of *Speed the Plough* for what seems like two decades (actually, it _is_ two decades), but it wasn’t until we actually became friends that we experienced the happiness and enthusiasm with which they create music.

Journalist Jim DeRogatis weighed in today on Speed the Plough’s _Shine,_ and as a former member of the band, you’d think it would be difficult for him to remain objective. But Mr. DeRogatis did an outstanding job describing the vibe of the band and its history, and describing _Shine_ as “possibly the best in the band’s discography.”

“The group hasn’t altered the formula it’s honed for more than three decades now: The ebb-and-flow crescendos, John’s slippery keyboard lines, Toni’s simple but beautiful flute and sax parts and angelic vocals, and Marc’s bedrock rhythm guitar sound exactly as they always have. But the fragile but insistent guitar leads, especially those from new member Ed Seifert, add a welcome edge, and songs such as “In My Book,” “Madeleine,” and “Sea of Tranquility” have a timeless, magical feel that places them among the very best the group has written.

Please enjoy “Like Anything,” the first single from Guy Capecelatro III’s forthcoming Dromedary CD _North for the Winter_.

The song can be found as part of a digital-only single, “backed with” a non-LP B-side, “Blue Button.” It’s available on iTunes, emusic, Amazon.com, and other fine e-tailers.

Add _The Aquarian Weekly_ to the growing list of publications giving rave reviews to _Strike Hard!_, the new album by *The 65’s*

What’s interesting about this review is that it’s not the punk-tinged hard rock the reviewer (Marissa Savino) enjoyed – it’s the acoustic stuff:

““Are You Sick of Me Yet” seems to be the most raw and expressive. The soft guitar chords are complimented by the vocals, which are dripping with longing and frustration. There is no question about it—this is what the band does best. The 65’s then allow room for their female vocalist, Cindi Merklee, to sing a beautiful acoustic track called “Worse Comes To.”

As of today (January 4, 2012) we have leaked out three tracks from Cuppa Joe’s forthcoming CD _Tunnel Trees._

Do you know what they are? You can find them all, but you’ll have to hunt for them. We’re not Sub Pop; we can’t just get our music on every website we want just because we feel like it.

So we thought we’d have a contest. *If you can find the three songs and tell us their titles, you can win a chance to receive a FREE advance copy of _Tunnel Trees_, PLUS an _original_ copy of the band’s 1994 breakthrough CD, _Nurture_.*

The rules are simple:

1) Figure out the song titles.
2) Send an email to info(at)dromedary-records dot com telling us what they are.
3) Include your mailing address!

We’ll select one winner at random, and mail you a copy of the CDs.

But hurry up – this contest ends on SATURDAY, JANUARY 7. You need to enter by 11:59 PM!
