Swedish postrockers Scraps of Tape didn't play out much in 2010, but they've lined up four extra-special German gigs for November at their favorite venues/cities:
11/10 - Az Conni, Dresden
11/11 - Schokoladen, Berlin
11/12 - Cairo, Würzburg
11/13 - Steinbruch, Duisburg
These won't just be regular shows though -- the band has compiled a special limited edition record featuring live versions of new songs plus various b-sides from their most recent album"Grand letdown" and will be giving copies away to the first 50 attendees at each show. And they won't be available anywhere else either, as they're only pressing 200. The band will be doing some special limited-edition posters and t-shirts though, so even latecomers don't go away empty-handed. Scraps also say they'll also only be playing material from"Grand letdown" plus some new songs off the record yet to come -- the one they are currently in the process of writing.
