"Luna debuted a set of mostly new material at Hobokens Maxwells at the end of July, and claimed that they'll soo hit the studio, with a new LP reportedly expected in six months.

I got a kick out of this excerpt, under Meanwhile, "Shellac, the new band featuring Steve Albini, Todd Trainer (Bricklaer Cake, Rifle Sprt) and Bob Weston (Volcano Suns) played their first publicized show at Lounge Ax on July 22, after a series of unannounced club dates. As we go to press the group's plans involve tours of Japan and Australia with the possible release of some singles this winter. The band is stressing their idealism by having no guest lists and in the future, the trio will strictly forbid promotional mailing of their recordings to press and radio." They were once a "new band"?
