Spanish for 100

What it looks like when it's new..

Oct 15th is getting closer…i can feel it.

you can feel it too if you come the show at the High Dive on Oct. 15th…with werebearcat!, Eighteen Individual Eyes, and Hotels!

This is outside our normal deal..but dig it:

the new record. stayed tuned for a little sample of savory goodness.

Nice mention in The Stranger about us this week in regards to the Footlaos benefit we played last night. Never did Danger Zone sound so dark, slow and heavy. Also, saxophone. amazing work Mr. Nate Henry.

I slept on Spanish for 100 for too long. The band has been around since at least 2003, but it wasn’t until their latest record, Jezebel, released about a year ago, that I finally started paying attention. Jezebel, which was produced by Martin Feveyear, is a must-hear for fans of indie pop with wicked guitar work. Opening track “Spider” is reminiscent of the Posies circa Amazing Disgrace. “Precious” is more, well, precious and also upbeat, with hand claps and a hook-filled chorus. They’re not reinventing the wheel when it comes to pop rock, but they are putting on an impressive display of talent. The band makes it real easy for you to check ‘em out, too—you can download all the songs for free at their website www.spanishfor100.com. MEGAN SELING

ol’ strokey the stratocaster blew apart last night, but it’ll be okay.

Elder Mason = EPIC, The Quit = Beautiful.

We’re making some changes here to the website. time for a new look!

If you haven’t noticed, we are going to be out on the road again starting next week for a quick trip to a few cities in the Midwest and Spokane. Hope to see you out there.

On another note, a friend pointed us to a “cafe racer” site that had a picture of a scooter on the front with our sticker on it. Just funny enough to pass along. Scroll down to the bottom of that page. http://www.caferacerseattle.com/home.html

….just can’t wait to get on the road again.

if you’re near a computer or a radio…and you’re not eating lunch. then you you might like to tune in an hear us play songs off of our new record. it’ll be grand.

yes…on a compact disc! it’s crazy. but it’s still kinda fun.

anyways…we’d like to welcome you to the High Dive on Friday, Oct. 23rd to hear us play our new record…it’s called Jezebel…it looks like this:


buy it!
SHIM will be rocking with us. good times.
