I first met Useless I.D. when I was out on the Warped tour with the Gamits back in the day. We ended up having our tent next to theirs and we quickly became friends. I remember on at least a one occasion getting really drunk around those guys when the Gamits had called it quits in the middle of Warped and they were there for moral support. Chris from the Gamits even sang on a track on their last album, Redemption.Suburban Home will release the The Lost Broken Bones in October of this year.
I ran into Ishay and Guy from Useless I.D. earlier this year in Ft Collins (of all places) while the band were recording their album at the Blasting Room. I was in the middle of the Drag the River reunion weekend and they had come out to the show after a day of recording. They had mentioned that they were looking for a label in the states to release their new album and I was way into the idea. We have been talking on and off since then and today, we have come to an agreement.

The hold steady is playing one of those myspace secret shows in Billings, MT tonight I think. I just saw it and I thought maybe a few of you would be interested.

Does this have anything to do with Israel building suburban homes in the west bank?

yes! so glad they're still signing some pop-punk!! i respect them for taking the primary path that has worked out for them (country-punk or whatever you'd call it) but stoked that they're still living up to their namesake.
