Video: Drink Up Buttercup - “Seasickness Pills”
First video in Drink Up Buttercup's "Tossed Out Into A Sea of Normal" series:
"Tossed Out Into A Sea Of Normal" is series of live home video recordings of each track from Drink Up Buttercup's debut album. This is the first track "Seasickness Pills" performed live in Jim's basement. The album drops March 23rd 2010.
Starting off as raw energetic punk, "Seasickness Pills" immediately breaks down into something greater—a poppy carnival song. Then the song takes another strange turn over 2 and a half minutes in when a frightening keyboard comes and James Harvey launches into an operatic howl. Wow.

mp3: Drink Up Buttercup - "Sosey and Dosey"
Yesterday, Drink Up Buttercup announced the release date for their much anticipated debut, Born and Thrown On Hook. On March 23rd the world will get their first full glimpse at a recorded Drink Up Buttercup. We can only hope that Born and Thrown On Hook can capture the energy of the live shows, because anyone who's ever seen Drink Up Buttercup can tell you that their are easily one of the most fun young bands around. Characterized by floor-stomping, trashcan-pounding sing-a-longs, they've been able to generate a devoted live following without a full release to their name.
Catch them at The Bell House (Brooklyn, NY) on January 15th with Ravens & Chimes, Miracles of Modern Science, and Milagres
