The Presets Apocolypso Australian Tour Dates

Yes, it's The Presets again, and yes, I'm still as excited about it, If you're annoyed about the obsession you can blame them for so efficiently releasing tracks and news in drips and drabs so I have to post about it all separately.

Anyways, I hadn't seen anyone post their Australian Apocolypso tour dates (which I found via their myspace) so I thought I'd let you all in on them. I also found this cool picture of The Presets, whilst trawling google images to find one to go with this post. Looks fair old to me.

It's a compilation from their gigs at NEVEREVERLAND (if you don't know what that was you missed out).

Right Click Save As (10MB): The Presets - My People (Semi-Live - Video, Not Audio - From Sydney Nevereverland Daft Punk Show)

Also last...

But definitely not least is the another track from the album, that was on their 5 track sampler. I think it almost got lost among the other tracks from the sampler. It's the slowest of all the preview tracks as of yet. Definitely a different track from most of thier hits, but reminds me of some old tracks. It builds at the 40sec mark and drops at the min. It seems to have more of a story, more meaning, it's not just a song drunk people will dance too. Seems like a angry love song between a man/woman who's boyfriend cheated on him with a woman... with a lyrics like "I hope I never have to / Go and explain / Explain it again / Boy that it all started / Found you in the arms of another girl..." It's quickly growing on me and becoming a fave.

I noticed even The Presets themselves, on their myspace, have started linking to JB-Hi-Fi (who I'm not to happy at, at the moment!), as the mod shop is all out. (BTW there are 7 links to 'you know whos' myspace in there, see if you can find them all)
