California art punkers (and Smell regulars) Abe Vigoda are alive, well, and still making with the jams. Their latest, Skeleton, is due July 8 on CD and LP from Post Present Medium, the label owned and operated by No Age's Dean Spunt. What's more, PPM recently lined up a distribution deal with Chicago's Touch and Go Records, so no matter where you find yourself, Abe won't be too far off.

As previously mentioned, Abe Vigoda will contribute a forthcoming single to Aagoo Records' ongoing "David Horvitz 7" Picture Disc" series. They've also got a handful of shows on the bubble, all in L.A., and most of them at the Smell. Awfully nice scene ya'll have out there. Mind sharing? Oh, right, the record.
