as some of you may already know, the ISIS "holy tears" single that was scheduled to come out today, has been cancelled. we discovered at the last minute that the first song on the finished version of the single was the wrong song. what should've been "holy tears" was actually "wrists of kings". now while we like both songs, we figured we couldn't very well release a "holy tears" single with out that particular song being on the damn disc. oh well - it'll still come out, we're just not sure when.
in the meantime check out:

this is the myspace page for the guy who directed the video for "holy tears", which is to be included as CD-rom content on the single (assuming it ever comes out), and eventually as part of a future ISIS dvd. the video itself is incredible, at least in my estimation, and dominic has done a lot of other great work, some of which may be sampled via his myspace page.
in other ISIS news, i received one copy of the completed ISIS 12xLP box set today, and i must say i think it turned out splendidly. i'll try to create another post dedicated to that in the next day or so. very excited about that....

exciting news about the box set coming your way. i know everyone keeps asking but whenever you can get us a price estimation on that would be lovely. my poor college ass has been trying to keep money stashed away from myself in wait of that particular piece...i counted my change the other day...$112 so thats a start, toddles
ReplyDeletemercury in retrograde still....
ReplyDeletethat single is cursed. anyway, I'll wait...
ReplyDeletedo you have any idea when the Koko show (Oceanic) will be out on dvd?
I don't know what to say, bad luck i suppose? Too bad.
ReplyDeleteAnd just a though, the remix for Holy Tears is done by Melvins or Melvins/Lustmord? I remember that the first news said about those two doing it, but now you tend to mention only Melvins. What's up with that?
and another thing....
OCEANIC DVD!! *faints*
cheers mate, keep up the good work and hope to see you guys in Poland soon
i guess the holy tears single would have to wait then. tsk!
ReplyDeleteany ballpark figure how much the ISIS 12xLP would cost mr. turner?
Too bad about the single mishap! I'm very much looking forward to seeing the vid. When you guys coming back to the UK?
ReplyDeleteI managed to get my hands on the single yesterday, and it's fantastic. The Hailstone video is visualization for Isis I've been waiting for.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
awesome, can't wait for any news on the box set, looking forward to finally getting oceanic on vinyl.
ReplyDeleteGreat news. Thanks for the update.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update aaron, and I too am interested on how much the box set will cost. Conspiracy records has it priced at 160 euros, so I guess around 230? hopefully cheaper =)
ReplyDeleteAlso, amazon as well as other online stores have the "not in rivers but in drops" remix included on the holy tears one. I'm guessing this was also an error?
oh and COME BACK TO FLORIDA!!
Strange, the record store I work at got 6 copies of this yesterday...
