Media: Ted Leo And The Pharmacists: “Where Was My Brain?” (demo)

Contributed by Problematiclogic. Posted by Bryne on Saturday, June 6, 2009 at 4:00 PM (EDT)

Ted Leo And The Pharmacists have posted a demo of a track recorded last fall. No word on when or if the song will appear as part of a proper release; Leo explained:

"Older "new" song - we've been playing some new stuff live for quite a while now, and since it'll probably be a while, still, before any new record comes out, I thought I'd just toss this demo out there. It's by no means the most ambitious of the new songs, but believe it or not, neither is it the simplest, and maybe it's just a good late-spring tour sing-along."

"Where Was My Brain?" can be heard here. The band last released Rapid Response in 2008.

Fucckkkkkkkkkkkkkk.
What about a Wisconsin date?

Report

shrapnel (June 6, 2009)

Actually I just noticed that there's a date in Sauget at Pop's?
And the milwaukee date is at Turner Hall

Report

Scarysmurf (June 6, 2009)

Sauget is almost farther from me then just driving in Minnesota to see them.
And I suppose Turner Hall will have to do, I saw them there last time as well.
Wisconsin people are boring as fuck though. Extremely dissapointed in the crowd participation up there.

J4M35 (June 6, 2009)

they'll play a chicago date, as there is a one-day gap between the milwaukee and detriot dates. my guess is that they are waiting until after lollapalooza to post it though...

Or they could just not be playing Chicago, which I hope is the case.

They better proceed to announce that they're playing Montreal October 14th or 15th... or I shall be most displeased. They're playing fucking Regina, c'mon!

I had no idea the Pharmacists included Dave Mustaine and Snuffleupagus. Ted Leo rules.

not to sound like a dunce, but the more punk his songs are, the better. i can't get into the earlier experimental stuff very much, but everything from the last four releases has been wonderful.

Report

Cyanotic (June 6, 2009)

I have to agree with you. The needlessly slow, drawn out, or outrageously repetitive stuff does not sit well with me. Little Dawn is a great song but that outro...jeez.
