admin — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 18:03:10 +0000

Hey all- here’s a quick update for your Sunday tea. We just finished up our CD Release shows in Lincoln and Omaha and want to thank everyone who came out and had a good time. We had a ton of fun playing with Gorilla Warfare and Learning to Fall at the early show at Knickerbockers, Bottlerocket and Filter Kings at the late show, and, Cave Kids and Parting Shot at the Slowdown. Thanks to everyone who bought a CD or something to wear. Sorry we sold out of some sizes, we will try to re-up our inventory before the next show.

A couple of people have posted Killigans reviews online in the past week, so check them out. First off, Audrey Kay reviews our Lincoln CD Release show here: http://www.slamomaha.com/music/review_articles.asp and secondly, John Bowles of PaddyRock.com reviews HONOR here: http://www.paddyrock.com/?p=258

Photographer Emir Plicanic took some great shots at the Knickerbockers late show, check them out here: http://www.emirplicanic.com/ns-files/killigans-cd-release-concert.php

A final announcement is that we have taken down the HONOR full album preview, but there are still a couple of tracks on the MUSIC page, along with selected songs from all the other recordings. HONOR is now available online (both CDs and MP3 downloads) at CDBaby.com – http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/TheKilligans1 so check that out. We should be up on iTunes and a handful of other sites within a short time too.

As always- thanks for supporting Killigans! We hope to play a show near you soon!

L.Kent Wolgamott posted a great (in our opinion) review of Honor in today’s Lincoln Journal Star. A couple of phrases that jumped out are:

The Killigans are fixtures on the local scene and are known for delivering propulsive, passionate shows. With “Honor,” the six-piece band has made a record that lives up to what they do live.

and:

I’ve listened to “Honor” a handful of times in the past week and am more impressed each time I hear it.

Be sure to read the whole thing here:

It’s always great to read a positive review of an album (which we have been lucky to have a few) but it’s even more validating to us that Wolgamott mentioned that the album is indicative of our live shows. We’ve always felt like we are a live band, and have had some difficulty in recreating that energy and power in the studio.

We feel that Honor is our best album to date. We hope you like it too!

Don’t forget that you can listen to the whole album for a limited time here : http://thekilligans.com/honor-preview/
