Before the Chop compiles the first one hundred pieces I wrote for the Weekly and also includes the feature interview I did with Nick Cave when Grinderman II came out. For reasons of space, the Weekly must often slightly truncate the pieces and also sees fit to change the name of the piece. So, what you read there isn’t always what I sent them. This is one of the reasons I wanted to put this book out. Also, knowing there are a lot of people out there without the time to go to some website and read something every week, I thought it would be a good idea to have the articles all in one place. I hope you enjoy the book and thank you. - Henry

The 50 DVD has made its arrival to our site after being sold on tour only for most of this year. The DVD is a live performance of me at the National Geographic Theater in Washington DC on February 13th, 2011, when I turned fifty. Ian MacKaye introduces me and I take it from there. It was a good night in a good theater with a fantastic audience. One of the parts I like about it is that we did some non performance footage of me going back to some of my old haunts in DC like the classic venue Madams Organ as well as a tour through my old job that I left in 1981. We are very happy to be able to bring this to all of you who were not able to go to the tour and pick it up there. -- Henry

The tracks that make up A Nicer Shade Of Red are songs from the thirty-song session that Nice was taken from. These are fully mixed and mastered tracks. Some of them we are playing live night to night. The extended version of Your Number is One is a completely different take with a longer middle section that allowed Jason, together with percussion jamblaster supreme Kerim Imes, to go long with some cool instruments and really let you see what good playing is all about. Clifs mix is insane. Its a damn cool track and I am very happy to get a chance for you all to hear it as I think youll dig it big time. -- Henry

When we recorded songs for what became our album Weight, we were set up in the meeting room of a ski-lodge and played at all hours. We ended up with quite a bit of music. Fall Guy, I See Through and Right Here Too Much were songs that ended up as movie soundtrack cuts and b-sides. We asked New York sax heavyweight Charles Gayle to fly out and join us for some jams. He did and we rolled tape for a couple of nights. What a great time, what a great guy. The results have not been released until now. I included some live tracks from the Weight tour to finish. Hope you dig it. We thank you. -- Henry Rollins
