NEW YACHT 7" DON'T PUT OUT
Tuesday May 12, 2009

NEW YACHT pre-order available. Listen to the stream from the YACHT site: YACHT – Waste Of Time

DON’T PUT OUT is a small homage (in the form of unauthorized cover songs) to the film Ladies And Gentlemen the Fabulous Stains, a 1981 film by Lou Adler about a fictional all-girl punk band called The Stains. The message of the film, and YACHT’s single: “Don’t be an old man in a young girls’ world.”

Side A: YACHT – Waste Of Time
Side B: Suzi Corpso with YACHT – Professionals

“Waste Of Time” and “Professionals” are songs originally performed by The Stains. In DON’T PUT OUT, “Waste Of Time” is re-imagined as an apathetic bubblegum disco track, and “Professionals,” sung by Suzi Corpso with three-chord guitar backing by Claire L. Evans, as the sludgy protest song it was perhaps always meant to be.

Suzi Corpso is longtime YACHT collaborator, the artist Rebecca Carlisle-Healy, sometimes known as RGB by RCH. Carlisle-Healy has recently finished Arrive Maris En Ronde, a beautiful science fiction film which stars YACHT’s Claire L. Evans as a robot from the future named LITH.

DON’T PUT OUT will be released on Marriage Records on June 16th, limited to 1,000 copies worldwide, with infinite digital copies.

A dub version of “Waste of Time” and a remix by Hedford Vachal will be featured on the next YACHT 12” single on DFA Records.
