Trifekta records are also releasing a single to coincide with the tour.
The Trifekta version of "Monsoon" is out now in Australia.
Written and produced by Spiral Stairs with valuable assistance from Preston School alum Dan Carr, Chris Heinrich, and Mathew Zeek Harris (not to mention a few surprise special guests), all tracks were recorded and mixed this past summer in sunny Seattle, Washington.
He's the man behind Melbourne-based indie Trifekta Records, home to the likes of Art Of Fighting, Gersey, Architecture In Helsinki, the Go-Betweens and more...
All the Australian artists on Trifekta plus: Fur, Sandpit, Sleepy Township, Gerling and 2 Litre Dolby because these are the bands that formed my musical landscape as a young punter.
Trifekta was formed at a Pavement gig in 1997 after hearing a demo by The Avalanches on the way to the show and deciding it had to be put out.
Wires follows two award-winning mini-albums released on cult Sydney label Half A Cow, and was recorded in Sydney with highly regarded sound engineer Tim Whitten, who has recorded some classic Australian records by bands such as Crow, Gaslight Radio, Gersey and the Clouds.
It was released on Trifekta Records in Australia at the end of March, 2001 and has been on high rotation on alternative/community radio ever since.
Trifekta is the Australian home of Sodastream, Gersey, Life Without Buildings and Minimum Chips, was the first port of call in the dizzying journey of dance maestros the Avalanches, and now serves as the Aussie label for Superchunk and Preston School of Industry.
Ninety Nine are now on Trifekta Records - same label as superchunk, songs ohio, life without buildings, the go-betweens
The result is their stunning new album 'The Process' which was released on Trifekta Records on September 16th 2002"
Such songs -ranging from ragged new-wave numbers to long, doleful, innately-intense vibes/vocals numbers- are most often powered forward by animalistic drummer Cameron Potts, who's let off the leash long enough to grind drumsticks into stubs, batter his battered kit, and strike fear into unsuspecting audience members with wild-eyed screams."
They relocated to Melbourne in the late 1990s and continued to support many international acts.
Their first release for Melbourne-based Trifekta Records was the Freckles mini-album which featured the vocals of Pat Ridgewell of cult Brisbane band Small World Experience.
In 2002 Chapter Records released a CD compilation of the early 7"s and the Swish EP as well as a couple of other tracks that were released elsewhere (such as the Asparagus Milkshake compilation cassette).

the monkey puzzle: trifekta records boat party, 2002-12-22
Trifekta Records boat party, where I also ran into Jeremy (and friend Jamie), who I'd met at the Supersnazz gig at Raoul, back in July.
I must say, I liked them more this time than back in April - they're a bit more coherent, and their single Like a Call is a good example of their progress (I picked it up on blue vinyl from them at the end of the party).

THE GO-BETWEENS: Bright Yellow Bright Orange (Trifekta Records)(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
THE GO-BETWEENS: Bright Yellow Bright Orange (Trifekta Records).
Second Go-Betweens release since the reunion of Grant McLennan and Robert Forster finds them sounding more like the band of old, rather than a combination of two solo albums.
Bright Yellow is in the mould of Tallulah, finding both quirky wordsmith Forster and melodic McLennan in pop mode, strummed acoustics and jangling electric guitars to the fore as ever.
