    Update on “Live in Paris” DVD

    If you’ve pre-ordered “Live in Paris,” you may have already gotten your digital download of the audio. Unfortunately, we will have to wait a little longer for the DVD. BRMC sent this update on Thursday with a mention on how Leah is doing:

    Hey, we wanted to give everyone a quick update on the Live In Paris DVD.

    So last month, when we first received the Master Copy of the DVD to approve, we noticed this strange little digital glitch in the audio (it wasn’t anything too serious, but it was like nails on a chalkboard to us).  I guess the good news is that we caught the problem in time, and it has since been fixed.  The bad news is that it has caused the release date to be pushed back about a month.  It was a hard to call to make, but we didn’t feel right shipping the DVD out like that.

    In the meantime, we want to apologize to you by sending you a link where you can immediately download mp3’s of ALL of the songs on the album.

    In other news, we’ve begun rehearsing again with Leah (post surgery) and she is beating the living hell out of the drums again. She still needs to take it easy for the next couple weeks though and not hammer a hole through her snare drum, but so far all signs seem to be pointing towards a fairly strong recovery.

    The bionic girl returns +

    You will be receiving information from Firebrand with a link to download the MP3s.

    BRMC – Record Store Day ’15 release in UK/Europe

    Thanks to Darren Mackin, we have some pictures of the UK/European Record Store Day releases of BRMC’s Weapon of Choice/Need Some Air 7″ Single. It’s a very limited release for Record Store Day in the UK (only 600), and probably just as limited in other countries. Other fans have confirmed France and Sweden.

    Pre-Order Live In Paris

    BRMC have posted some clips from the new 33.3% Documentary by Yana Amur, which is accompanying the new Live in Paris CD/DVD sets now available to pre-order from BRMC’s website:

    Here’s the email announcement sent to the BRMC mailing list:

      BRMC Live In Paris

    ‘It was a little over a year ago while sitting in the back of a passenger van outside Tokyo, all of us covered in sweat and half cocked grins trying to catch our breath after having just walked off stage, I just remember someone muttering the idea that we might actually really want to think about filming one of these shows before it’s all over’

    ‘I guess my first reaction was that we could all use a very long hot shower much more than another live DVD at that exact moment. My second was that it might be a shame if we reached the end of that tour without capturing any of the beauty and even brutality of it. But a lot of the music we create is not only where we exist, but also where we escape to.’

    ‘It’s difficult though with film to avoid making a band into just another ‘reality show’ crafted into a product on a shelf, and at the same time just painting a plain picture of a live concert would be like a dream without very much color or feeling.

    In the end we have released two separate films to show both sides of the same coin….

    ‘Live In Paris’ is the dream.

    And ‘33.3% Documentary’ is the morning after.

    We hope you enjoy what you find’

    “The Art of Dying” at George Fest/Best Fest

    In case you were unable to attend George Fest at The Fonda Theatre Los Angeles September 28, 2014, a couple videographers were kind enough to record the song BRMC played called “The Art of Dying” from George Harrison’s 1970 album ‘All Things Must Pass.’  (Photo: Rozette Diaz/RestlessCities.com)

    There are also many other photos of BRMC on their Facebook album by Michelle Shiers Photography, which are also featured on BuzzBandsLA’s review.
