the breakups - the album will come out TOMORROW… bet your bottom dollar

here’s the skinny:

when:  2/14/12
coin:  $10.00(ish)
where:  http://thebreakups.bandcamp.com/album/running-jumping-falling-shouting (and other assorted places)
what you can do:  Point people toward our album on Facebook and Twitter during the day on Tuesday.  You can be our street team from the comfort of your computer or smart phone chair.


Tomorrow means different things to different people.  To some it’s about any number of Christian martyrs named Valentine, my personal favorite being Saint Valentine of Terni ‘cause he had the most indie cred.  To elitists it’s about Chaucer’s Parlement of Foules.  And to those people I say… HAVE FUN AT THE LIBRARY, NERDS!!!  To romantics it is simply about love, making dinner reservations weeks ahead of time, and having an abundance of birth control handy.  To Hallmark, chocolate companies, and stuffed animal manufacturers who exploit Chinese laborers, it’s about $$$.  And to single people it’s about blowing your brains out and/or ranting about how much you hate Love Actually.

To the breakups though, it’s all about RUNNING JUMPING FALLING SHOUTING.  That’s right, folks, our new album comes out on Valentine’s Day.  Leave subtlety to Terrence Malick.  We’re called the breakups and we release albums on Saint Valentine’s Day.  Deal with it.

Getting RJFS to this point has been a group effort and many of you were part of that group.  You know who you are and we love you on V-Day and every other day of the year.

We urge you to alert people of this album’s existence.  Spread the word.  Write your local congressman, hire skywriters, deface public restrooms.  We need all the help we can get.  And speaking of which, if you’ve got the time to post a quick link to the Bandcamp page on either Facebook or Twitter sometime during the day tomorrow it would warm our little hearts.  I mean just think if you were all able to make our album trend on Twitter.  If that happened I might even understand what the means!  #thebreakups?  Anybody?  I have no clue what hashtags do, but I love a good number sign as much as the next man/woman.

HAPPY RUNNING JUMPING FALLING SHOUTING DAY!!!
