SUCCESS BEYOND IMAGINING WITH THE WALL [REDUX]!
Well, the dust has settled and the hangovers have dissipated, and we can now look back at the past month of unbelievable news and gargantuan achievements and call our pre-order Kickstarter for THE WALL [REDUX] a towering success. And we’re not talking in terms of the funding side, although that we did more than triple our initial goal…
We’re talking about massive artists of incredible significance and stature stepping up to be part of this phenomenal musical statement.
Who?
Greenleaf.
Pallbearer.
Yawning Man.
Mark Lanegan.
THE MELVINS.
We knew when we started this project that we would be taking an already iconic work of musical mastery and wielding it to make a new statement for today. What we didn’t entirely know is who would be helping us do so… and now we know. And we’re blown the fuck away.
To all those who elected to back this project from the beginning, we cannot possibly thank you enough… but if this record turns out to be anything close to its potential, we trust that’ll be all the thanks you’re looking for!
Within a few days, we hope to reveal the full list of artists who are participating. It’s really going to be special.
Not long after that, we’ll open up pre-orders to those who weren’t able to pledge while the Kickstarter campaign was running. (Don’t worry, Kickstarter backers, you’ve got your own exclusive editions to look forward to and received the best pricing for your enthusiastic early support – it will be neither overlooked nor forgotten!)
In the meantime, if you’d like to get updates on the project, please join our mailing list so we can keep you looped in.
Did we mention what an honor and a pleasure this all turned out to be? Thanks to Pink Floyd for giving us the vehicle we needed to make a definitive artistic statement about the state of the world around us, and to every artist who signed on to contribute, and to everyone out there who’s an anxious as we are to hear the end result.

ASG playing “Mother” and Ruby the Hatchet on “Vera!” I love the matches. And kicking things off with Melvins on “In the Flesh?”… I can’t think of a better band to do that biting, visceral track justice. So excited to hear how this thing will turn out.
