Marnie Stern plots the destruction of all shitty guitar players and a fall tour

Marnie Stern is just fucking awesome at playing guitar. I mean, so awesome it’s like all the best guitar players died and got reincarnated into each one of her fingers. Which is why it’s a totally natural thing for Marnie Stern to plan a tour where she invites the shitty guitar players of the world to come see her, so that she can show them what a real guitar is like. The name of this tour is the “My Fingers Are Reincarnated Rock Gods and I Am Way Better Than You Ever Will Be on Guitar Tour.”

In all honesty though, the tour is actually in support of Marnie’s new album (which TMT wrote about here, and which you can hear two tracks from here [“For Ash”] and here [“Transparency Is the New Misery”]), set for release on October 5 via Kill Rock Stars, who released her last one, 2008’s This Is It and I Am It and You Are It and So Is That and He Is It and She Is It and It Is It and That Is That (TMT Review). The tour winds its way through the US and Western Europe, so look out, shitty guitar players, ‘cause Marnie Stern is coming after YOU!
