Hex Map has a new album coming out soon. I think it will be out in mid-June, but we’re waiting on an exact date. If you only know me from my solo music or from my wizard posts, Hex Map is a band I’m in.
The new album is called Ruin Value, and it’s going to be available on fancy clear vinyl records and on un-fancy mp3s and other digital files. You can pre-order a copy here on the Hex Map Bandcamp page: http://hexmap.bandcamp.com/album/ruin-value I highly encourage you to do so!
We’re also playing shows again, with a new line-up, including Scott Craggs of “mastered Wizard Planet” fame and Evan Persons of “has nice hair” fame. Our first show back is this Friday at O’Brien’s in Allston. If you’re on Facebook you can look at this event page.
You can listen to a few tracks from Ruin Value right on this page, below. Enjoy!
I played a show on Saturday at Precinct with my band, the Actual Billy Joel AKA the Fluorescent Earth-Tones AKA The Zards. We careened helplessly through seven songs. Here’s the setlist:
Wizard Planet
She’s A Werewolf
Minnesota Ice Man
A Savage Drag
Wallpaper
Troll Hair
Bodice Ripper
It was mostly stuff from Wizard Planet, as you can see, but we did sneak a new song in there. We were joined by The I Want You, Hookerclops, and Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling. A good time was had by most!
There’s another show coming up relatively soon, and some big Hex Map news too in the immediate future/present.

What are you doing on the internet? You should be on your way to Precinct Bar in Somerville, MA right now! I’m playing a show there in 3 hours. Doors open in 2 hours (at 8!). Get off the computer!
Oh, you have some sort of pocket computer-phone. That’s weird. I guess you can come to the show anyway.
My new, currently nameless band is playing a show this weekend. We’re mostly playing stuff from Wizard Planet, but we’ll also be dropping in a song from the upcoming second album. If you’re able to get to Somerville, Massachusetts this Saturday night, I mildly recommend stopping by! Tickets are $8, and we go on at around 9PM. The Nicholas Burgess band will be on for less than half an hour, so don’t stop for snacks if you’re running late.
Upcoming shows widget thing:
No shows currently announced. Check back!
I feel like I need more than a month to prepare, so who knows what will happen?
There’s a Facebook event page here if you want to social media-tize your future plans.
We’ll be playing Precinct in Somerville at 9pm on April 27. Join us!
