Four years, 3,149 individual posts, 2 million unique visitors, 6.4 million total pageviews.

At exactly 10:37 p.m. MST on Feb. 20, 2009, Slicing Up Eyeballs launched so very inauspiciously, with just a simple 91-word post announcing plans to provide “the latest info on new albums, reissues, upcoming reunions and tour dates.” Exactly four years later, this site has become so much more than that.

Tonight’s Slicing Up Eyeballs Music Hour featured brand-new music from The Ocean Blue, Johnny Marr, Depeche Mode, The Primitives, Alison Moyet and Poltergeist, featuring members of Echo & The Bunnymen, plus classics form XTC, Ramones, David Bowie, and more.

This month we bring you the third premiere in our series of archival videos from Wuxtry Records in Athens, Ga., and it’s another flashback to February 1981 at Atlanta’s 688 Club.

Mike Scott of The Waterboys revealed on Twitter this week that he’s at work compiling a 7-disc box set of material — “114 tracks and counting,” featuring multiple takes of about 88 different songs — recorded during the sessions for the band’s classic 1988 album ‘Fisherman’s Blues’ that’s due for release later in this year.

New Wave star Adam Ant’s comeback continues this spring with the release of a documentary titled “The Blue Black Hussar,” which promises to chronicle the singer’s “brave return from exile” following a mental breakdown. Above, you can check out a short trailer for the film (via Louder Than War).
