danoise Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 It's been years since we've heard anything from Tub Ring (chicago experimental rock ). These dudes are pretty old now. They're already half way to the goal and it's only been a couple days. These guys were a pretty fun act to see live as well. Zoo Hypothesis is one of my favorite albums of all time as well. From what I understand they never put out any format besides CD. This is probably the only chance to pick up anything on vinyl from them ever, so hopefully they can reach 12k. Donors get to vote on which songs (2 songs from 5 releases) go on the record as well. A $30 pledge is the cheapest way to secure the vinyl and digital files though, which might be high for a "greatest hits/best of" thing, but if you know/heard of/forgot the band, it might be worth it for you. T shirt designs look pretty cool, and I've seen more gimmicky pledge rewards from other bands. anyway, Just wanted to spread the word. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tubring/tub-ring-best-of-vinyl-lp-and-new-digital-ep here's a few tracks I believe are shoe in's for the best of. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n45Mc6l7WgI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sojourn Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I had just gone through their albums last week and wished they would press some reissues. Spooky. danoise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mameeshkamowskwoz Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I loved this band... I forget when and where but I'm pretty sure I saw them a few times. The last time I think was with Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and/or Stinking Lizaveta. I loved how the entire crowd swayed back and forth like a sea during the last song whose title I can't recall. Any chance their cover of Mouth to Mouth by Faith No More could be included?! Not sure what legal clearances would be required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mertzrock Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Do people really have enough money to dole out $2k to have Tub Ring record a cover song of their choice...geez...we'll see if that cc charge goes through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if you donated you could vote fer songs from Stupid Pet Tricks, Music For the Bathroom, ...And the Mashed Potato Mountain Etiquette, or Super Sci-Fi Samurai Rock Star Ultra Turbo II ver 3.6. It's just that most of their fans don't know those releases and the selections wouldn't be as popular. One day after official announcement and it's less than $2k from the goal! Looks like we might get a live show if this keeps up! I'm stupid excited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyte30351 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Just in case someone here missed out on the KS, until 2.August you can still snag a copy of the greatest hits vinyl from http://tubring.bigcartel.com/product/tub-ring-polyvinyl-chloride-the-best-of-tub-ring-double-vinyl-lp-preorder. Tracklist is: A1 Bite the Wax Tadpole A2 When the Crash Happened A3 Invalid A4 Numbers A5 Optimistic B1 The Promise Keeper B2 Bird of a Different Color B3 Killers in Love B4 Psychology Is B.S. (Not Science) B5 Habitat B6 O.C.D. C1 Robot Trilogy C2 Living With Rene's Head C3 Stop This (NOW!) C4 I Could Never Fall In Love With You C5 Faster C6 I Shot Your Faggot Horse Bitch D1 Tiny, Little D2 Panic the Digital D3 Touching the Enemy D4 No One Wants to Play D5 Alexander in Charge D6 The Horrible and the Holy Overall I'm really happy with it.

Kyte30351 Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 (edited) So the new album is fuckin’ great and the Kickstarter packages should be shippin’ out soon! The lead singer posted a picture of a bunch of the perks in his apartment, so hopefully they’ll arrive before Thanksgivin’ or shortly after. ::edit:: Since I guess I’m the only TR fanatic I’ll say with an edit instead of a triple post, my package came in perfectly as did my friend’s copy who lives a few miles away. He has made me super jealous that he went with the t-shirt package, whereas I went fer the USB. But they have said that they may put up any extras of stuff fer sale “after the dust settles.” Edited November 29, 2017 by Kyte30351 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyte30351 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Just in case anyone was still interested the band have posted all remainin’ copies of their vinyl (which will also include a “random t-shirt” while supplies last) on their Facebook and https://tubring.bigcartel.com/ at half off! $20!
