I hope you all had a great year? We did, doing so many fun things. Just to name a few:

We recorded and released our new album “Perspectives & Objectives” in August. Next to cooperating with new friends such as Suburban Records and A-F Records we recorded the album partly ourselves in the beginning of the year, a first time. All attention, reactions and reviews for the album were heart-warming and magnificent. Connected to this release we made our first “professional” music video for “Soundtrack” in June.

We played around 100 shows this year, including tours with Propagandhi, ZSK, Timeshares, Smile & Burn, Sweet Empire, The Rebel Spell and City Light Thief. We shared the stage with all time heroes like Bad Religion, NOFX, Alkaline Trio, Strike Anywhere, Skin of Tears and many others. And we had an amazing summer playing at festivals like Monster Bash, Punk Rock Holiday, Anti-Fest, Ex Fest, Ecofest and our own Releasefest for the new album. We didn’t go to crazy, exotic places this year, but it was nice to return to Sweden and Norway, and visit Sicily for the first time.

No bad things this year then? But of course: At one point it seemed we drove more kilometers in a broken van to and from the car shop than to shows. But vans are repairable!

Thanks to all involved for being a part of this amazing year, see you in 2014!
