Atmosphere is gearing up for the release of their next edition of one of their more popular series to date, which will preempt the upcoming When Life Gives You Lemons… LP. Even though the release date is slated for early 2008, the crew is already promoting it by releasing a slice of the Sad Clown series. Sad Clown Bad Summer: Number 9 will be released soon.
“Just in time for some summer fun, Ant and I are dropping a little Sad Clown appetizer while we put the finishing touches on the new album ‘When Life Gives You Lemons… which will be out early next year,” Slug wrote in a statement on MySpace.
They will be selling this on tour as Felt (Murs and Slug) will headline some Paid Dues dates.

Tupac Shakur‘s family is going against Death Row. According to various reports, the estate of the late Tupac Shakur filed an injunction against Death Row Records to try to keep the label from releasing anymore of his unreleased material.
Afeni Shakur claims that Death Row is trying to profit from the unreleased material and also claims the unreleased tapes should have been given to her in 1997, after their after their agreement with the label.
This was unveiled during Death Row‘s bankruptcy proceedings. Death Row was advertising the unreleased tapes to potential buyers.
“It was revealed that an album’s worth of unreleased Tupac material was being advertised to potential buyers as the jewel in the crown of the Death Row assets,” Donald N. David, the estate’s layer recently stated.
When Death Row did not exclude the unreleased material from their bankruptcy settlement, Afeni Shakur took action.
