The MPS in Stereophile

I've worked as an editor at Stereophile magazine since 2000, and it's long been a goal of mine to get the band into one of our monthly issues. I was finally able to achieve that goal with the February 2012 installment of my column, "The Entry Level." It's nice when different worlds come together. You can read about the MPS in Stereophile right here.

Thank You + Awesome

A million thanks to all our fans, friends, and family who came out to the mps reunion at Maxwell's the other night. It was a triumphant night. Cheers to la familia Mejias, the Circle, and the various crews from Philly and New York City (and Staten Island, even) who made this the awesomeness that it was.

If you couldn't attend, get a sampler of the magic courtesy of the Indomitable Phil Ritz, who selflessly took video of some of the songs (see below).

Until next time, perhaps...

50 Bullets


Superman


How Can a Man Be Tougher Than the World?



Jackals


Rivers of Water, Rivers of Mud


Bitch, Why?


Good Thing


Running Away from Melissa



P.S. We love you all.

Our reunion show is just a week away, and Hoboken's local paper did a neat piece on the band and our Jersey City roots that you can read HERE. The show is next Friday at Maxwell's in Hoboken; show starts at 8:30 PM and is a mere 8 bucks.

Tiger Lady!

That horror in Zanesville got me thinking...there's a "missing" mps track that few people have out there. Listen to and download a rarely heard track from the rarely-found Weird New Jersey Local Heroes, Villains and Artists compilation--gratis!!


This was recorded during our second session with King Django, maybe around 2004, and would have been the last song on "In Bed." For completists, consider this the final, missing tune from the "In Bed" EP, which you can buy on ITunes.

Tiger Lady! CLICK HERE for the tune.
