Doesn’t a new year always seem to hum with possibility and fresh starts? For us here at Good Night, States, it sure does.

Today we rejoice in our first press ever about Short Films on Self-Control and it floods me with a wave of excitement second only to the joy I felt upon surviving my first week of recording back in March of 2007. I haven’t posted since then, but because a new year brings new chances to succeed, I hope to be writing much more in the coming days. Blogging! Success! New albums! Fresh starts! This is 2008!!!

Also, Trevor hopes that 2008 is the year in which I learn the discipline of putting my dirty clothing in the appropriate hamper compartment. But some things take more than a flip of the calendar to overcome.

So, for our first post of 2008, we bring you someone else’s post. Please check out the good folks at Rusty Bridge blog . If you know our drummer’s obsession with robots, you will understand how important it is that these robot-loving people have become Good Night, States-loving people.

And if you have a blog about indie music, fresh starts, pop culture, robots, or laundry organization, don’t hesitate to email me (press at goodnightstates dot com.) We’d love to read about our music on your blog.

Joyous New Year, friends!
