Matador & Jay Reatard : This Is What We Like To Call A Press Release
April 24th, 2008 at 2:23 pm by The Management

Matador is pleased to announce the signing of a multi-album, worldwide, exclusive recording agreement with prolific Memphis people person Jay Reatard. The label was already engaged in a series of limited-edition 7″ releases, to be compiled on CD for fall release. The first 7″, â??See/Saw,â? is already sold out; the second, â??Painted Shut,â? is due out on May 20. Jay will be recording in August for a brand-new studio album out in early 2009. (His former label, In The Red, is releasing a compilation of early singles in June.)


You gotta love the dude's expression right before he gets clocked:

when did 2 days old news become old. That's news to me.

Not sure about Rock and Roll Hotel and him performing there. I think he's playing at another venue in town soon.

i think he hit him because of the sideways hat . . . and those horrible chops.

either way, it is viewing gold.

I just love the expressions on the faces of everyone else in that picture. I wish there was an "after" pic too.

Turn this into a roll call? I'm hoping to make it, but some work bigwigs are in town and I might get called away.

Still, I'm guessing I'm be out of the Black Cat by about 9? :D

After watching the video, I'm guessing the kid didn't feel a thing…

Nice punch though.

Andrew WK welcomes the kids on the stage with open arms. Just ask nkotb.

Best 28 minute live music set this year.

It was great to see Garth Algar playing the drums for Jay.
