New Shiny Diamonds song “1987″ debuts! Jay Reatard dead at 29

Our new song “1987″ is now streaming on our myspace page! This is the first track off of our new album “A Histriony Of Violence”. It was produced by Jamie Stewart and engineered and prepared for myspace by Spencer “Badonkadonk” Carson. The version on the album will be a proper master, which is why we haven’t made it available for download yet. We had to put something up though, we are so excited to get this album out to you!

Thanks so much for everything!

Also we’re very sorry to hear that Jay Reatard died early this morning, apparently “in his sleep” at 29 years of age. [Pitchfork reports]. I saw him play a couple months ago and he rocked very hard. Rest in peace, Jay.

Update: Teddy Pendergrass has died, which is also very sad. Sorry to see so many great artists go this year.
