…AND NOW FOR A QUICK UPDATE ON FROM EXILE

Here’s some good news to wash the taste of Trent Reznor’s questionable choice for his next movie project out of your mouth: From Exile’s long-awaited Nine Inch Nails cover EP (preview here) is finally nearing completion, and will see its release in May. I still don’t have all the details just yet, but I do know that Emil Werstler, of Daath and Levi/Werstler fame, recently tracked some guitars for FE’s version of the achingly gorgeous NIN classic “A Warm Place,” and that From Exile have announced a record release show on May 14 at The Earl in Atlanta. Everyone who attends the gig will get a free copy of the CD, so if you live in the area, you should, y’know, go to that.

And, hey, here’s some even better news — video of From Exile performing a new, still-untitled track at a recent concert! And, no shocks here, it sounds pretty promising. Hopefully once the band finally wraps this NIN project up, they can get crackin’ on a new full-length. In the meantime, enjoy the vid below.
