That is sad, even though I never really did expect them to get back together.

The "Tiny Little Hammers" EP doesn't actually exist.... whoever wrote the article didn't do their research very well.

Knowing GY!BE, it's probably an amazing record that they recorded onto a single mastertape, and then destroyed it just because they could.

considering Tiny Little Hammers - it has thousands of listenings on LastFM

UPDATE: listening to d/loaded file, part 1. This is simply live version of Motherf**ker=Redeemer

Okay, relax everybody, Tiny Little Hammers is crappy recorded Motherf**ker=Redeemer bootleg in it's entire 33-minute version, listenable but non-essential. I wonder why it was included in their discography on wiki

Well, I wasn't exactly expecting them to get back together, really. It's sad news, but A Silver Mt Zion is just as good.

it's not very different musically (though skinnier and more experimental, free-style moments make the bliss out of it), but it's definitely different spiritually (sad, depressing, pessimistic over the edge, poetic over the hardest words and feelings).

How can you say that!! "Slow Riot For New Zero Kanada" is amazing! I think it's their greatest work...
