MINUS STORY announce tour dates, offer multiple free MP3s
Posted: May 21st, 2007 by LegacyMinus Story’s latest opus “My Ion Truss” is to be released on 6/19/2007 and will be followed by US tour dates with Shearwater and Old Canes in June and July. The album, which mp3.com has called “beautiful and moving” is an approximation of what one can expect live, as it was recorded mostly live at Electrical Audio with producer John Congleton (Explosions In the Sky, Polyphonic Spree). It is the closest thing to Minus Story’s cathartic live show that they’ve put to tape to date.Some of our favorite blogs are hosting exclusive mp3s from “My Ion Truss.”
