We’re lucky to be celebrating this record twice at two of the best venues in the City!

The night features Robbers On High Street, Jukebox The Ghost, Takka Takka and Lowry. Plus we have some prizes to hand out and free chocolates courtesy of Brooklyn’s own The Mast Brothers (while supplies last)
Then on Thursday February 5th we are at Bowery Ballroom with Francis and the Lights, Savoir Adore and The Bloodsugars!

Folks, it’s time! Guilt By Association Vol. 2 is here. Pitchfork just announced its release and hits the nail on the head! For round two, the comp seems to have evolved from a collection of covers of guilty pleasures to an unabashed celebration of pop, probably since nobody should ever feel ashamed for liking something (unless that something is Ted Nugent in 2008). (Full article here.) Stream the whole record below and hit the iTunes button on the player to make it yours!

News :: Bringing the Guilt to Parkside Lounge
January 7th, 2008 by Engine Room Recordings | Subscribe To The News Feed [ News]
We kicked off our first Guilt By Association show last night at Parkside Lounge in Manhattan’s lower east side. It was freezing out but the room still filled up and we were treated to sets by Lara Ewen, Bryan Dunn and ERR’s own Goat. It was great fun and how can you not enjoy yourself when Def Leopard gets busted out. Congrats to Dan Berns from Chicago for getting the most answers right in our guilty pop culture trivia contest….I guess it pays to know all about the Spice Girls after all.
So that’s the First Thursday of every month at Parkside Lounge. The next show is February 6th where we’ll have comedian Nick Cobb, singer/songwriter Derek James and ERR’s Porter Block. Hope to see you there!

News :: Some Guilt By Association Comments
August 14th, 2007 by Engine Room Recordings | Subscribe To The News Feed [ News]
A few early comments on Guilt By Association from some awesome publications below.
“Despite the suggestive title, GUILT BY ASSOCIATION is more elegy than irony and offers a primer on how to cover songs successfully…These covers strip the studio sheen from the originals and expose the song underneath, then cast them in radical new forms.” -Harp Magazine
“Luna’s take on Paula Abdul’s ‘Straight Up’ is a woozy, soul-jazz seduction song; Mike Watt turns Blue Oyster Cults ‘Burnin’ For You’ into a smoky, blues-punk dirge; and Superchunk transform the Destiny’s Child number ‘Say My Name’ into a fuzzy, noisy rock nugget.” -Alternative Press
“Irony is not dead, as evidenced by this hot compilation…Amazingly satisfying.”
-Preen Magazine
“[A] beguiling collection of guilty-pleasure covers…We defy you to listen to Devendra Banhart warble ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’ without smiling.” -Radar Magazine
Guilt By Association is now available from Insound, Amazon and our good friends over at Bullmoose
