Ian MacKaye on Soft Focus w/ Ian Svenonius
Ian MacKaye is featured on “Soft Focus with Ian Svenonius”, an interview show appearing on the new Vice Magazine webTV station, VBS. Over the years Ian has done hundreds of interviews and has more recently been booking speaking engagements, usually in the form of informal Q&As, but here — thanks to Ian Spiv’s hilarious personality and the long friendship the two of them enjoy, is a unique and sometimes hilarious conversation of politics, policies and nonsense.

For more info go to www.lovittrecords.com.

Lovitt recently released The Ben Davis & the Jetts / Des Ark split LP/ CD entitled “Battle Of The Beards”. Ben Davis & the Jetts and Des Ark might be wildly different but it is rare to find a collaboration that works this well; the album features 5 tracks from each band as well as two collaborations.

Des Ark plans on recording a new full-length for Lovitt Records in April with Jonathan Fuller in Richmond, Virginia.

Haram has been writing new material and is planning on recording a new full length in the near future.
