This includes the artwork and the book that accompanied the second release.

You can still buy it or listen online, but why would you? There things are free, dammit.

The new version out now on all digital streaming platforms.

Fans seems to be taking this more heavily than the band. For Troy, the band's creator, this isn't a bad thing: "I like pseudonyms because they allow you to play different roles. As Tim said, 'This is new stuff is sounding more like Crazy Horse than Neil.'"

Troy has a long history of moving from genre to genre so it's not surprising that he'd fall back on his heavier roots. And after the show, what will happen?

"There Is No Sin is ongoing for us. We're just recording something different and it doesn't seem fair to call it a TINS project. We're the same people and we'll probably feel melancholy again soon. I'd love Christophe to create the images. Tim and Al haven't gone anywhere. Maybe Rukshan will shoot the next video?"

The show will be a fun return for TINS too. Blue was one of the first venues that the band played in Portland. It'll be a fun sendoff. See you there!

Troy and Will are playing together at last!

This Thursday night, Will's releasing a new EP and he invited There Is No Sin to tag along. If you show up at Empire 11/2, not only will you be able to grab Will's new record, you'll also be able to grab a free copy of the TINS CD, "We Are Revealed."

Come party with Clip Records, Portland!

Well.

We have a surprise for you. As if it were leaked from a secret lab, here is a screenshot from the new There Is No Sin video!

We know two things so far: the actress in the video is Marla Giese and the filmmaker is, once again Ruwan. This is the third video (fourth?!) that Ruwan--he of the monkey video fame--has done with Troy's music. It's a very exclusive club, filmmakers.

And does Ruwan have an upcoming short film? IMDB says he does!

Like the video for "El Cid," this one too was shot in California. The costume, the official mascot for local pub The Snug, was shipped from Maine to be worn by an "as yet to be revealed" actor.

The plot was developed by There Is No Sin's Troy Keiper but Mr. Thenuwara brought a bit of lightness to the theme. Keiper says, "The video had all of the elements that I'd pictured but Rukshan saw the humorous side of the monkey's life. I adore what he did."

Take a look!

They're playing a show at Store 54 this Saturday alongside Boston faves Embrionic. They're on at about 10:30 from what we hear. For emerging details, you can check out the tour page at the band's site.

We'll have a big video announcement coming up next week. It involves that pesky monkey. Stay tuned.

The new CD by There Is No Sin just topped the Best of List by the Portland Phoenix! It was ranked #1 on the list of local releases in 2011 by their resident music guru Sam Pfeifle! Awesome!

Congrats to Troy and Company! It's been a great year. If you haven't gotten your CD yet, Portland, we have a treat for you: we're placing them in Bull Moose stores around Portland!

We're assembling the packages as fast as we can. If you've been waiting this past week, don't worry! They're on their way!
