best if listened to in head phones or at dance parties.
pythons beach photo contest mixtape
i heard that spring is here or at least on the way. but remember the beach photo contest? well, the pythons beach photo mixtapes are now in the hands of the winners. personalized mixtapes featuring hand-made paper crafts; the same ones in this promotional video:
to avoid any possibly related suicides, zap gun, pythons friend and confidant, created non-personalized, down-loadable podcasts of the beach photo mixtapes.

if your media player or hand-held device won’t play this file, try downloading the mp3 version (which, unfortunately, comes with no chapter breaks and less pythons related pictures.)

side B .mp3
(note: we worried possible related suicides could occur after seeing the pythons beach photo contest mixtape promotional video which could then create an overwhelming desire to hear the mixtape and realizing you never sent in a beach photo.)
we’re petrified! update
nope, this update isn’t about any new we’re petrified! shows.
the update is that those lazy-ass killer-buds finally gave me enough files to put together a decent version of the “we’re petrified!” tab. i guess i’m one of the buds now too, but i’m talking about the ones who do the music and the videos and the artwork and stuff. “who are you then?” you might be wondering. the answer is that i am francis p. rutherford III, the new webmaster for killerbuds.net. i go by frankie if you ever email me or if you see me around town. so maybe you remember when the killerbuds.net website looked terrible. well, that was before i took over the webpage duties. now the page looks way better. i’m still making some improvements and trying to sort through all the archival stuff the buds have given me, so there will be new stuff up from time to time. keep your expectations tempered since they don’t pay me for my time.
anyways, the “we’re petrified!” tab is cool now. there’s footage from 3 of their concerts last year as well as concert posters. i’m sorting through pictures of the band’s live shows to put up later. for now though, go to the “we’re petrified!” tab and click on the shows in the left bar to see some footage from those shows. footage like the one just above.
a(lpha) b(eta) c(igarette) c(orporation)
in the future, the alpha beta cigarette corporation is a cigarette company committed to helping smokers quit (more on that in future posts or post-futures), but, right now (or post-present), abcc is a new super-group made up of the members of pythons and look out for snakes!
3 steps to quitting: a voyage to nowhere, abcc’s first release, is a concept record about the univers. you can download it here: 3 steps to quitting .zip
can you guess which member made which album cover? (hint: look out for snakes! is one person, pythons are two.)
