PRE-ORDER NOW AT THE ESKIMOFILMS.COM SHOPPE
Tragedy renders the monster human. Williams' 5th full length release is decidedly his most eclectic. Largely inspired by the grief and futility following the illness and death of his girlfriend, the album veers from somber piano ballads to nostalgic pop to at least one grandiose epic with virtuoso live drums, odd time signatures and dissonant tone clusters (while still remaining catchy!) Longtime cohort Jerome Deppe gets the longest guitar solo of his career as well as his VERY FIRST harmonica solo (in the deceptively titled hoedown "Kill Yourself in Cape May"). There are also 4 cover tunes and a witty Zevonesque take on the life of Idi Amin. A local and national cast of musical luminaries* fleshes out the sound of David at his most organic and confessional.
Available for preorder now for the undeniably reasonable price of $10 plus shipping...
Album will ship immediately upon release (scheduled for 2.27.09). As a bonus, pre-orders receive a DVD-R of the universally adored video for "Summer Wasn't Made for You and Me".

Disques de Lapin Presents: "Rabbits in Your Stocking" LPN9 - CD-R
Your Christmas wishlist was horribly incomplete...until now. Celebrate the holiday that has the highest suicide rate in style with Disques de Lapin's x-mas epic "Rabbits in Your Stocking", a showcase of Lapin artists and friends of Lapin ringing in the season of snow.
Featuring the already-known Lapin acts Stavo Craft, Oval Portraits, Polly Eurothane, the can't and the Universes, the album also features fresh face Jim Ether. Love Demian of O Paradis? Well, you'll hear him twice, under his usual moniker as well as in a preview of the future Demian/Nöla supergroup Les Paradisiers. Not enough for you?!? Then you'll certainly enjoy two tracks by Naevus and their earlier incarnation Winter...all the way from the crumpet fields of England, no less.

You want more? Try on a track from Jerome Deppe's new album, or his comrade David E. Williams as he offers up a version of "I Believe in Father Christmas" that will make you thirsty for soy nog and hungry for cyanide. Perhaps a Thomas Nöla et son Orchestre carol co-written by Ernest Hemmingway will do it for you. No? Well, the child-like melancholy of Miss Moonshine's "Stile Nacht" WILL!
Presented in a hand-stamped chipboard arigatopak, "Rabbits in Your Stocking" is sized to fit in almost any stocking. Order right away for delivery before XXXmas.
TRACKLISTING:
1. Jim Ether - "Good Morning Jessica" 2. David E. Williams - "I Believe in Father Christmas" 3. The Universes - "Ballistic Missletoe" 4. Oval Portraits - "MotherPlease" 5. O Paradis - "Angeles de Arena Secan sus Corazones" 6. Winter - "Brown is the Colour" 7. Jerome Deppe - "Rose Madder" 8. Polly Eurothane - "Pookie Xmas Jerry" 9.

How does the world appear through only a single rose-tinted lens? With the release of Thomas Nöla et son Orchestre's full-length epic "The Rose-Tinted Monocle", listeners are whisked through an antique pink psychedelic haze to the lonely rings of Saturn. Along with the Boston-based orchestra, the album features 3 songs with Demian of O Paradis and appearances by David E. Williams and Jerome Deppe. Conjuring up images of forgotten piano bars, sock hops, and dilapidated orchestra pits, "The Rose-Tinted Monocle" erases the lines between genres, creating its own. Relying heavily on grand piano, vocal harmonies, harpsichord, cello and vibraphone, this album stresses the ORCHESTRE in Thomas Nöla et son...
"The Rose-Tinted Monocle" is presented on stunning ROSE-TINTED vinyl with a CD or digital download of the album. Your choice.
Available worldwide via the ESKIMO/LAPIN SHOPPE (www.eskimofilms.com)as well as soleilmoon.com.

Now available on DVD from ESKIMOFILMS.COM. Available soon from Soleilmoon, Amazon.com and various other shoppes around the world. --- "To The Wolves..." ESKIMO FILMS Dir. Thomas Nöla
 The year is 1932...maybe...
Who is Bruno Helden and what does he have in store for his young and wild protege? From where have they come and where are they headed? Thomas Nöla's prequel to 2005's "The Doctor" may aim to shed light on these questions.
Starring Dustin T. Rooney (Dustmuffin & the Aluminum Cans/Little Blue Doctors) as the enigmatic and self-serving Bruno Helden and Jerry Adams as a child of nature, "To the Wolves ..." is an orgy of blood, fear and wanderlust.
They span the globe looking for excitement and adventure, taking from others what they please and observing the changing skies. From their island nation home, to the wild far-off woods, they evade the rule of law. But what happens when they reach Hindustan? What does the Tsar have to say?
Are they gentlemen? Is this evil? No worries... Gentlemen answer to none!
TECHNICAL DETAILS: - NTSC - Region free - 16:9 widescreen - 87 min.
    DVD SPECIAL FEATURES INCLUDE: - Theatrical trailer - Teaser - ‘Behind The Wolf ’ production vignette - Thomas Nöla et son Orchestre music video
Trailer and clips:
------
------
------
"To the Wolves... is a haunting vision glazed in blood red atmosphere. It follows the unhinged journey of The Doctor and Helden as they walk the countryside in parallel universe Germany full of strange characters trapped in a cocktail of venomous hostility and childlike frivolity. It's Down by Law meets Natural Born Killers set in the 1930's? 40s?. To the Wolves is far more polished than The Doctor and focuses in a world less surreal and deranged but as dangerous. Dustin Rooney offers us a new Malcolm McDowell with switchblade delivery. Jerry Adams carries himself well as a murderous pillar reminiscent of Lon Chaney Jr's The Wolf Man. Entertaining and evil, Grand-Guignol and poetry, wicked and worth watching" - SCARYART.COM
