Shellac Overcome Agoraphobia

10th March 2008 | by Aidan Williamson

On the National Enquirer 'want list' the top three photo requests are: 1.) Bigfoot, 2.) Nessie, and 3.) Shellac In Concert. It's time to grab your cameras people, for today might be your lucky day...

Bigfoot's behind you!

Or possibly, the notoriously reclusive Shellac have announced a world tour, and yes, we still call it a world tour even if they miss out Great Britain, well, just about. The band, headed up by Nirvana producer and industry heavyweight Steve Albini will begin their shenanigans on March 25, 2008 in Brazil's number two city, (it also makes the top ten of the most violent cities in the world... good place to start) Rio De Janeiro.

The band will then play further shows in South America before jettisoning over to Europe to conclude the tour.
