Canadian tour is over!

Our 2nd Canadian tour has come to an end! It was a blast to be back in the country of maple and hockey, meet old friends and make new ones including the incredible folks of KRANG!

There’s a bunch of people that we wanna thank for making this trip possible and fun! First of all Steve at Merit Based Bookings for booking the tour, Joel at Nordik Legion Productions for facilitating and all promoters for putting up shows, especially the precious people at Pouzza who kickstarted this tour! Our friend Chris van Haandel for helping us out on the road and behind the merch! All amazing bands we played with! Bruno and Cynthia at Thousand Islands Records for releasing our music, hosting us in Montreal and adding some leftover albums to their distro! Touring Canada means staying at people’s houses, we love the following people for welcoming us into their homes: Nab of Spitehouse, Mig of Dead Alright, Marc Ryan, Jordan Elijah of Faster & Louder Records, Joe & Kyle of Probably House and Cory and Casey of Tarantula Tapes. Two big thumbs up to the Fonds Podium Kunsten for supporting Dutch bands abroad!

We hope to make it back over to Canada asap! Let’s not take 11 years to do this again!

We still owe you pics of the Ontario part of our tour, so here goes!

The Quebec part of our Canada tour is a wrap! Pouzza was a blast and it was truly heartwarming to meet longtime friends and make even more new ones! Being welcomed by such a tight community is an amazing feeling!

NEWSLETTER APRIL 2026: Canadian Tour & Hall Of Mirrors

All good things must come to an end! It was kei tof releasing a Dutch EP, doing our biggest national tour yet and seeing people either singing along to our Dutch lyrics or being flabbergasted by butchered classic Dutch songs. But time has come to visit Canada and present a new single!

Hall Of Mirrors

This is an odd one, as it was recorded during the Big Dog Recordings Pizza Session! A weekend long recording session for their 10 year anniversary compilation. Our new single Hall of Mirrors is an early-AFI-inspired track about the shifting perspectives of protest; who is on your side and who isn’t? Check Hall of Mirrors music & video!

Recorded by Tim van Doorn at Big Dog Recordings obviously, recording session music video by Seppe Dausi. The compilation album will be out digitally and on vinyl July 1st via White Russian Records. Also featuring Tusky, Batwölf, F.O.D., Loud Love, Mike Noegraf, St. Plaster, Charlie Bit My Finger, Craig’s Brother, Harsh Realms and Bridle. All profits go to Dog Rescue Greece. Big love for Big Dog!

Canada

In two weeks our Canadian tour starts! Flights have been booked, van and backline rented, merch shipped and ordered; we’re so ready to go off! All dates are with Krang, our show at Pouzza Fest will be with the amazing Bollweevils! Hope to see you at one of the shows… Info & tickets
