Original Release notes:

Circus Devils (2001 � 2017)

Robert Pollard's freak-rock trio�Circus Devils�says farewell with a pair�of�simultaneous releases for 2017.�First is their 14th�and final album�Laughs Last, along with a best-of, double LP collection titled�Laughs Best: The Kids Eat It Up�(with DVD included).�

On�LAUGHS LAST, Pollard and the Tobias brothers take a breathless romp through multiple styles, starting off with the brash hotdogger, "Get Out Of My Way When I'm In Town."� Along the way we're treated to the R.E.M. inflected "I Do the Nixon," the organ-fuzz stomper "Teenage Rooster," and the defiantly conventional "Crucified by The British Press." � Full of high humor and low drama,�Laughs Last�is the bold exclamation point at the end of Circus Devils' 16-year run.

LAUGHS BEST (The Kids Eat it Up)�� a�collection of 30 speedy deliveries from rock and roll's Twilight Zone � will leave you exhausted, satisfied, and ready for another spin.� Circus Devils' entire mind-bending catalogue is represented here, including three songs from the brand new album�Laughs Last.� While there is an emphasis on friendlier numbers, there is still plenty of the trio's prog psychedelia on display.��

Release date for both albums:�February 24, 2017.
