As teased yesterday, Depeche Mode has announced plans for what it’s calling an “exceptionally exclusive performance” in Los Angeles next week as a thank-you to the fans whose ticket demand has led the band to add a record fourth date at the Hollywood Bowl this fall.
We’re happy to announce today that we’ve got a pair of tickets to the first night of that residency to award to a lucky Slicing Up Eyeballs reader. The winner will receive two (2) tickets to see Murphy perform his 1986 solo debut Should the World Fail to Fall Apart at The Chapel in San Francisco on June 20.
It’s no doubt one of the more standout one-offs of modern rock: The Glove’s Blue Sunshine, the 1983 album by The Cure’s Robert Smith and Seven Severin of Siouxsie and the Banshees. To celebrate that LP, we’ve got a pair of T-shirts to give away to four lucky Slicing Up Eyeballs readers.
Sparks will perform their classic 1974 album Kimono My House in its entirety — plus a selection of songs from across their 23 albums — backed by a 38-piece orchestra at a pair of Los Angeles concerts this month. And we’ve got a pair of tickets to one of those shows to give away to one lucky Slicing Up Eyeballs reader.
Last year, Daniel Ash embarked on a crowdfunded recording project to remake songs from his back catalog in new, stripped-down arrangements. The resulting album, Stripped, features re-recordings of some of his favorite tracks — and we’ve now got CD copies to give away to four lucky Slicing Up Eyeballs readers.
For any diehard fan of the Pixies, the just-published “Pixies: A Visual History” — a gorgeous, 215-page hardbound coffee-table book jammed with scores and scores of you-are-there photographs chronicling the ascent of the college-rock favorites — is a must-have.
As we reported last week, The Psychedelic Furs are touring the western U.S. this fall with The Lemonheads, and we’ve got a pair of tickets to give away to one of those shows: the bands’ Nov. 13 concert at the House of Blues in Anaheim, Calif.
Next week, the classic 1983 debut album from The The will receive a slightly belated 30th anniversary reissue in the form of a deluxe 2LP set that will include the newly remastered album on one 180-gram vinyl platter and six remixes and B-sides on the other.
Next month, Artoffact Records will reissue pioneering electronic music act 808 State’s second and third albums — 1989’s Ninety and 1991’s ex:el — in expanded and remastered form on limited-edition, collector’s item cassettes — and we’ve got two sets of them to give away to lucky Slicing Up Eyeballs readers.
It’s no secret that Morrissey’s been gearing up to release his first new studio album in five years next month, but the former Smiths frontman also has just reissued one of his best solo efforts, 1994’s Vauhxall and I — and we’ve got 10 copies to hand out to lucky Slicing Up Eyeballs readers in the U.S.
The Pixies roared back into record shops this spring with Indie Cindy, their first album in more than two decades, and now, thanks to the fine folks at PIAS America, we’ve got copies of the limited-edition, hardbound 2CD release of the album to give away to three lucky Slicing Up Eyeballs readers.
