Injury update and CD Release show news!
Justin returned from his doctor’s appointment and subsequent MRI on his knee. Turns out there are now two bone chips to be removed and surgery is likely going down in November. Despite him only being partially mobile we’ve still got two shows booked. First is a Halloween show in Seattle which should be pretty crazy. The second show is our CD Release show w/ The Independents at the Ash Street on Nov 7th. It’s a Friday and it should rule the school. Both are 21+ shows. We are hopeful that the intoxication with keep people from noticing Justin’s limited movement. In fact, it may even enhance it. If you’ve been too lazy to pre-order your CD, you can buy them from us at either show. Speaking of pre-order if you order the cd right now (like this week) from Interpunk.com you’ll get a free signed poster and a limited edition button.
Pre-Order Requiem and get free stuff!
Our latest CD is now available for pre-order from Interpunk.com. If you pre-order it you’ll get a signed poster, a cool new button design and more importantly you’ll be one the very first people to get a copy. Only the first 100 orders get the freebies so act now.
Two new songs on MySpace
Two more songs from the album have been posted on MySpace. The first is called ‘Dial Tone’ and has very little to do with phone service. The second is called ‘The Survival Guide’, which offers step by step instructions on how to survive the upcoming zombie holocaust. Album pre-order info coming in the next 2-3 days!
Smash It Up!
We’re on a new compilation CD on Mother Box Records. The disc is pretty great and features 14 bands each doing 2 songs that are loosely based on cars. Do check it out!
That’s how we roll
A new song from the new album has been posted on our Myspace page. It’s called ‘Death Race 2000’ and it’s about the classic movie of the same name, not that new crap one currently in theaters. How can you not enjoy a movie where you score points for running people over?
The new album release date is…
… October 14th!!! Stay tuned for a special MySpace only pre-sale in late September.
Crippled again
I think our legacy towards being the most accident prone band ever is becoming a reality. Justin is currently crutch bound and was informed he is going to have to undergo knee surgery to remove a “foreign object”. He can’t extend or bend his knee which pretty much sucks. Needless to say, no more shows for a bit, including the one with Viva Hate. It’s sort of ironic that the healthiest member of the band is always the one who breaks. Anyway, time to stock up on vitamins and milk before we break anything else.
Live in Portland? Want to hear new songs?
This Saturday we’re playing at Kelly’s Olympian w/ Accidental Gun Death and The Crawlers. We’re going to be playing a few songs from our upcoming album live for the very first time. Could be magic. Could be awful. Either way if you are of age check it out. Even if we crash and burn, the other bands are fantastic and can pick up the slack. The second show of note is on the 31st at Rock N Roll Pizza w/ Wednesday 13, Still Dead and Regiment 26. In our half-ass attempt at borderline bribery we’re making CD-R’s with some new songs from the upcoming album on it. First 50 people who ask for the disc will get one. Come to a show, get free music that literally no-one outside of the band has ever heard before and will hear for about 2 more months. The last Wed 13 show in Portland sold out, so get your advance tickets at TicketsWest.
Damn, now that’s a commitment
I think we’re done with zombie makeup because this guy puts everyone to shame!
Drop a few, gain a few, it’s all good
Despite our two cancellations last week we just added two pretty cool shows in July and August. The first is in Portland on July 31 w/ Wednesday 13. If you aren’t familiar with Wed. 13 it’s part of the Murderdolls doing punk style tunes with a B-movie flair. Word on the streets is that their shows are pretty awesome. In fact their last Portland show sold out which seems to be rare these days. The August show we added is in Salem w/ Viva Hate, which contains members of Tiger Army and Swingin’ Utters. Should be some good summer fun so check them out if you can. Lastly, if you know Dave send him an e-mail or MySpace message. He’s stuck in the Philippines for a month and we can only imagine he’s bored to tears. Last time there he saw a guy get shot. Thug life.
