Pre-Order Joan of Arc Meaningful Work 7"+MP3

Joan of Arc is officially a power-trio with rumors of Nate Kinsella (Birthmark) joining the party for a new full-length some time in 2011. Meaningful Work is a taste of things to come.

Plus Tim has been working on a little something special in between Cap'n Jazz shows -- a collaboration with Need New Body, 90 Day Men, Live in Chicago 1999-era members, and Friend/Enemy....more on that soon.

But first, Meaningful Work: 2 exclusive songs from the new line-up. Limited to 500 on dark green (mailorder exclusive) and 1000 on black vinyl.

Here's what Tim has to say: Peak Oil! Environmental Devastation and mass species die-off! Resource wars and economic collapse! Even we first-world bohemians are feeling the pinch. Joan of Arc has had to tighten its belt as we all have. Who can afford a second drummer, a vibraphone, a cellist, post-production processing? The songs are the same. I sit on my couch and play guitar and sing. But the production values have been restricted. And as a result, for the same amount of sonic information to get across we each have to work a little harder. This is the Joan of Arc of the new dust-bowl daze.

Joan of Arc Meaningful Work 7"+MP3 -- $5
