"Somewhere between ‘Having Fun With Elvis On Stage’ and Pat Benatar’s ‘Live from Earth!!,’ we offer you ‘The Obits Die At The Zoo,’ a 12-song, rip-roaring, zig-zag-wandering pile of riff after simmering riff—just the way Bob Seger showed us how to do it at Cobo Hall.
Recorded in 2012 in Brisbane, Australia, the pint-quaffing playground of rock'n'roll legends like The Leftovers, The Saints and SixFtHick. We were on tour between our second and third album for Sub Pop, so you get sing-along classics like "Widow Of My Dreams" and "I Want Results," plus 7" jams like "One Cross Apiece" and "Refund."
The digital download* contains 4 more tunes, including our covers of "The City Is Dead" (originally by Belgium's The Kids) and "Milk Cow Blues" (penned by Lovejoy via Chicago southpaw James "Kokomo" Arnold).
Each record comes with an Obits coaster** to protect your lovely, Arne Jacobsen-designed teak coffee table from a frightfully hideous ring created by that Soixante Quinze your fancy neighbor just mixed for you.
*yes, a download card is included! **we are very sorry that we couldn't include an actual drink with this record."
