Cymbals Eat Guitars share "Chambers" and fall tour dates, challenge Bob Mould to an eating contest

Staten Island indie rockers Cymbals Eat Guitars have a new LP called LOSE on the way, they recently premiered album cut “Chambers” via a Stereogum feature (listen below), and they announced a fall tour with former Hüsker Dü frontman Bob Mould. What more could this emotive band desire? Well… to beat Bob Mould in an eating contest of their choosing. It had to happen. Mould is a notorious eater, despite his slender appearance, and both CEG and Mould have a penchant for dirty-water hot dogs.

Food humor aside, these men are going to be insanely stuffed when they take the stage every night, so if you attend these shows, please be considerate. It’s hard enough to sing and play your heart out, but it’s a miracle when you can do it right after eating 22 hot dogs each. God forbid, funnel cake will not be involved. Yes, we know TV celebrity/eater Adam Richman got out of the game a long time ago, and there’s a reason. But in the spirit of binging, let’s celebrate on August 26 with Cymbals Eat Guitars’ LOSE, eat something draped in bacon and butter, and remember when we lost our innocence.
