The Shackeltons

The Shackeltons will be playing at Bruar Falls in Brooklyn on Friday night for only eight dollars. Frontman Mark Redding does his darndest to channel Ian Curtis and a live viewing is highly recommended. Your Movement is from their 2007 self-titled album released on KEXP disc jockey John Richards' label, Loveless Records.

The band is named after Earnest Shackleton, an explorer who most notably attempted to cross Antarctica on foot in the early 1900s. Spoiler alert! He died of a heart attack.



Along a similar faulty vein, The Breaks was directed by Sam Jones ~ who also directed the 2002 Wilco-doc I am Trying to Break Your Heart. A must see.
