In other news, Dallas supergroup The Boom Boom Box, made from a rotating cast of Pleasant Grove, Baboon and ex-Pinkston members, who now rock harder than they ever have before. And, as of today, you don’t have to venture out to Double Wide or Renfield’s Corner, where the band plays regular shows, to hear their music. You can download their debut album City In The Sun, nine crushing songs made by Dallas music lifers, over at iTunes. The band’s Facebook wall says that, until they get CDs printed, iTunes is the only way to get a copy of the record.
And finally, a few months ago, we ran a story in the print edition about a local record label, Executive Music Group, who are more or less competing with the majors. Today we learn that the label has added another somewhat high-profile act to its roster. Alien Ant Farm is now signed with EMG, along with 12 Stones and The Dirty Heads, who, just last year, broke the Billboard record for longest running independently released single on the alternative chart for their song “Lay Me Down.”
