Sunday, January 1st, 2012The Limited Edition Brains Out Tee
Monday, April 11th, 2011The first ever RIBS shirt is here. We’re printing a super-limited run of these to fund our East Coast Tour [via cold hard ca$h]. There will only be 100 of these puppies made, like, ever.
Printed on super soft, ultra comfortable Poly-Cotton blend heather black American Apparel 50/50 shirts. Get them here.
About the design:
This shirt is a visual rendering of “Brains Out.” With the help of IBUILDWORLDS (of British Brains artwork fame), we built a program that turns music into a visual using the frequency and amplitude of a sound file. We ran the audio for the song through a wireframe skull and this design is the result.

RIBS Nominated For Best New Act In Boston Phoenix’s Best Music Poll
Monday, March 28th, 2011
Someone upstairs must really love us. And by upstairs we mean the Boston Phoenix headquarters. (We live on the first floor, they’re on the 3rd. Awkward, I know…) Anyway, we’re nominated for this thing, and you can vote once per day for the next six weeks. Which is good because we’re not known for our performances on odd-numbered days. Just sayin.

Note: you’ve also gotta click “cast your ballot” after hitting “submit vote.”
P.S. Speaking of awkward, thanks for pitting us against our friends the Dirty Dishes Phoenix. Way to facilitate lasting friendships…
