OK - so WHERE can I order this where it's not going to cost me over $20 to ship to the US??

you could try their label
http://www.trackandfield.org.uk/

but i guess it's the exchange rate that's going to make it expensive.

Actually, thinking about it, there must be someone that will sell Herman Dune stuff in the States. I think at least one of the band plays shows in New York pretty often.

Try http://www.hermandune.com/

yeah the label's cost, with exchange rate, is over $20

"Whatever Burns The Best Baby" may be my new favourite HD song. Except their cover of "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?". Are they ever gonna put that to CD?

I like this a lot. It's schmindier than "Mas Cambios".

I got it at Aron's records in L.A. for $12.99... they don't do mail order, but that makes me think it's GOT to be available somewhere cheaper than $20...

So where's the love for Giant? It's been kicking about on the interweb for a while now but the official release has been put back to March for some reason. Anyway, it's absolutely wonderful - warm, and sad and uplifting in equal measure.
Unbelievably they're going on tour with the Kooks. I don't hold it against them - they deserve the exposure and are sure to blow the NME stooges off stage.

Stew (stew s), Tuesday, 30 January 2007 21:49 (seventeen years ago) link

I have no idea who the Kooks are, so there ya go.

Giant is great - they're moving into some very interesting new territory. While I don't think every song is great, (all but one on Not on Top was), I love the new direction and the risks they're taking with the whole 'mariachi' sound thing. Yeah, I love it.

Swine Spine (Roger Fidelity), Tuesday, 30 January 2007 22:33 (seventeen years ago) link

I really fucking like Giant, probably more than I ever expected to like a record by these guys

I love this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unc_GV4MeSs

Played it about four times in a row this morning on the walk to work.

I guess you get an advance cd if you star in a Herman Dune video

that video is priiime material for a slightly tweaked version of the Photos taken of famous people together that you would never have expected to be together but make you happy all the same. thread.

The story relayed to me was that Jon Hamm just happened to be in Austin the same time SXSW was going on and Eugene Mirman introduced him to the Herman Dune guys and before you knew it he'd agreed to be in their video.
