Hey folks, a lurker here. I've heard some good points on both sides of the debate about the Oils "new" upcoming release. And I like to think that the last thing any of us conscientious, intelligent powderworkers want to do is intentionally offend each other... If there's something to be said about the Oils, good or bad, right or wrong, this is the place to express it, right? I interpret much of the banter as tongue-in-cheek, and think it's cool no matter where you stand on the issue. Controversy keeps things interesting. And I personally think the band and management know what they're doing...

There's a legendary, but now obscure, band here in Canada, one of my faves, the Grapes of Wrath, whose heyday was '87 til 91 (when they split). Lo and behold, following 22 years in limbo, a brand new album is coming out early in the new year... However, they're making sure they first get back on the radar by releasing a "best of" CD now. Is this perhaps what the Oils are up to? Getting back on the scene so another future release (of some sort) doesn't crash and burn horribly before even taking off?

I am confident that unreleased material is forthcoming, and am willing to wait for it, because, again, the band knows what they're doing here.

Cheers, Trevor

Does anyone happen to know if Pete's appearance on Pictures Of You in June is available for viewing anywhere on the internet?  I would love to see it
