i have 3 things to tell you about (i work best in 3's)....

album title: our new album has a title. it's called "OH, SCORPIO"

OH, SCORPIO is out in japan!!
to the wonderful people of japan: (you'll have to excuse me, my japanese is a little rusty) ??????????????????! ??????????????????????????????????????????? ?????!!

and thirdly, we will be playing a show this saturday, april 11th at the Paradiso club in Amsterdam. come check it out!!




PS: i will break my rule of 3 to let you know that our dear friends from charleston "LESLIE" have a new EP out. give em a listen - myspace.com/leslierock

AKW was our kind of place... Disregard for an official German holiday which states "dancing is not allowed" (we were even told the show could be shut down if the police showed up) and a staff that works for free just because they believe what the club is doing for the community. Amazing. Keep up the good work. Thanks for letting us be a part.

People of Dresden.. thank you for bringing us to your beautiful city. We had been looking forward to coming for a long time and it was well worth the wait. Though all Hallows Eve is not a official German celebration (I guess we're ones to talk - you didn't see us in any costumes either), we couldn't have spent our time in a better place.

Berlin is always a fantastic time, and last nights show was no different. Thank you to all for giving Kenny a great birthday. Here's some pictures of us with acoustic guitars.

We're three shows into the tour now and things are in full swing. Considering it's pretty chilly here in Germany, Munich and Weinheim we're both intense sweat-fests, but we wouldn't have it any other way. Hopefully they'll all be that way. See you Hamburg on Monday.

We arrived in German in the early AM yesterday, hit the hay, then got to business. Thanks to the people of Stuttgart for a warm welcome and a fantastic kick off show. More to come.

only a month until we come back for our first headlining German tour! we have been keeping ourselves busy in the states with the U.S. release of "Don't Dance Rattlesnake", as well as writing a bunch of new songs which you will have the opportunity to hear first before anyone else.. as we will be sneaking a few of them into the set. and as if that weren't enough, we also will be bringing a bunch of new merch (t-shirts, etc.) with us to satisfy all of your FILMS needs. get ready.

Here's some photos from our recent shows w/ Smashing Pumpkins at the Orange Peel in Asheville, NC. All photos by igobyvictoria

we have been playing festivals all summer long in Germany, Austria and Spain. below are just a few highlights:


- The Films + Matzi, our tour manager. she is completely amazing and we'd be lost without her. we love her very very much.


- The Films hating the rain, but loving the mud


- The Films playing longer than 30 minutes!


- The Films bringing back 'the stage dive'


- The Films learn during a signing how to spell many german youth's names
- The Films learn during a signing that when many german youth's tell you their name is spelled with the long "E", they mean the long "I"
