Test Planet Update and an Incredible David Ford Video

So you may recall the other day when I posted some tracks from a local band, Test Planet. I had no idea what happened that fine band, but lucky for me (and all of you), the drummer of the band, Jason Valentine, found ME.

This is the comment he left on the post:

"Hi, I played drums for Test Planet. I remember that show with Planet 12. Our last show was in 2003 or 04 sometime at Ruby Tuesday on Summit. Jay (singer/bass) lives in Philadelphia, and Jerry (guitarist) lives in Phoenix. Real jobs broke us up. I would love to reunite sometime for another show, but it's probably unlikely. Jay's family lives here, and his sister Anna Wuerth is in the band Flotation Walls. I still live in Cbus, but I'm not playing with anyone since Test Planet. I have a bunch of newer tracks from 2004 that we never released if you're interested."

And even more good news for us, he sent me some of those unreleased tracks to share with the readers of ThaBombShelter!

Enjoy!

My apologies for the host being a little different, but something strange is happening with my host currently, so I'm using the backup service, FileDropper, let me know if you have any problem downloading the files.

And on a completely unrelated note, here's an awesome video I've been meaning to put up here. It shows just how incredible David Ford is, laying down an entire track, in one take, playing everything himself. I only wish I had been able to catch him when he played Cleveland last week.

Anyway, check this shit out:
