"On November 21st, the band will be making their debut for Decaydance in the form of a two song 7-inch. The songs were recorded at Atomic Studio in Brooklyn, engineered by Jesse Cannon and mixed by Steve Evetts. The a-side, 'Haircuts & T-shirts,' was debuted when the band played two sold out nights at NYC’s Bowery Ballroom this past July and the b-side 'All Night Long' says guitarist Dan Yemin, 'picks up exactly where we left off [with Jersey's Best Dancers] only 10 years older & wiser.'"

Did you know that crazy Jersey stripper that was arrested for having human skulls and other bones in her house was the original Lifetime bass player?

She just bought that stuff off the Internet, so she's not THAT crazy.

jesse cannon is the man!

O.K. That article says she got the severed hand from that med student, but it doesn't say how she got the skulls. I read previously that she claimed she ordered them via the Internet.

Woah, what's the deal with this coming out on Fueled By Ramen instead of Jade Tree? And what's the deal with Fueled By Ramen still existing as a label?
Frankly, I'd rather have Lifetime remain in my memory as they are - everyone knows what melodic poppy hardcore sounds like these days when it gets super-duper overproduced. Even though I was never a HUGE fan of Lifetime, I can't deal with the possibility of them becoming a mall-punk band, especially not this late in the game. I hope the new record stays true to their classic sound...

I'm not saying that FBR is necessarily that type of label, but the potential for a really shlocky album seems to be there, just because of the milleu surrounding that type of band these days.

According to Dan Yemin, it was because Decaydence could afford to pay for Lifetime to be in the studio for a long period of time and Jade Tree couldn't compete with that.

For the record, Linda (I believe that's her name and I had no idea about the bones/skulls thing) was NOT the original bass player for Lifetime. That would be Chris Corvino aka Crispy who also played in a very early version of Deadguy and also with Ressurection (who featured Rob Fish, who would later go on to front 108). He's the dude that played bass on their 1st 7". She only played with them from '92-'93 if memory serves. Anyway I saw Lifetime with both former bass players as well as later with Dave Palaitis (who still plays with them currently) back in the day, so trust me on this one.

"we trust you; we just don't care"
Which is why you're reading this, of course.
