hey there all of you! survived your summer vacation? we did. and we have great news to announce, well yvo has: his son "jippe" got born on august 23, healthy and all! so we congratulate yvo and suzette and jippe, and wish them a happy and cosy family with the three of them. we're very curious whose musical talents jippe inherited! perhaps he screams louder than his father?

as for the band, we actually started writing and praticing new songs and they are working out quite alright, we think … someday they'll make it to a record. if you want to hear them, book us a show … we want to play them live ourselves as well! at that we have a new show to announce in charleroi, belgium for a small trip to belgium and france, check the shows. more t.b.a. soon.

we're pretty much running out on some t-shirt and sweater models, if you want to order check the merch-section.

if you want to combine listening our songs with songs from other bands, don't go to our purevolume or myspace sites but listen to blitzkriegpop at kink f.m. it appears there is a radio show willing to give us some airplay!

hopefully some more "important" news soon! to be continued. how you doin'?

and how! fuck, this euro tour was an amazing experience. despite the bad omen before the tour with the canceled shows, the shows that went on were really great. without exception. we'd like to thank all the people that came to our shows to watch us play and helped us getting rid of our merchandise. and of course a huge "thanks!" to all the people that helped us out with the shows, both local bookers and annie mae bookings. you can expect a tour report online as soon as possible with some vague pictures and boring stories.

for those who can't wait to see us in shorts: pictures!

other news: angry youth records has a new website. and a damn fine one too. check their future plans and what they've been up to lately here.

after being banged totally numb by the new propagandhi album, we’ve almost recovered and are able to post a shitload of news again. here it goes … lately we’ve also been playing a shitload of shows. we wanna thank the people that organised those, and the people that showed up to support us. we made friends almost everywhere!

to keep on playing anywhere and everywhere we got a shitload of new shows, especially abroad. with a lot of international help from annie mae bookings. we owe them a lot! check the shows section for dates. europunk.net released an mp3 sampler featuring a shitload of mainly european punkrock/ska/hardcore bands. our contribution to the compilation was our mp3 "another guide (to comprehensive capitalism)" from our latest shit-loaded release ‘silencing civilization’. find all mp3’s here.

and some more news from europunk.net: they reviewed "silencing civilization" as well. you can find that review here. check out the rest of their site as well and support the european punkrock scene, a good looking site for a shit looking scene. just kidding, respect.

let’s talk merchandise: we got a shipload of new buttons with incredibly cool designs made by one inch fun buttons. go check out their site too, and laugh your asses off. on another merchandise note: the critically acclaimed zipped hoodies are slowly coming along as well. the design is finished and they’ll be printed any time soon. we hope.

last news is about our label, angry youth records. they will be releasing the new smash the statues full-length "against the stream". from what we (illegally) have heard it’s a great album by an even greater band! nice to have them on our side now!

that’s it for now. hopefully we compensated the lack of news on our si(t/d)e in the last weeks. hope to hear shitloads from you too!

but here's another update from our newly based digital home. and we have a sh!tload of new shows to announce. check the shows section. and check out our new label mates from gascoigne too. they just released an awesome tape and c.d. on angry youth records. www.gascoigne.nl for their site (notice the name dropping on the c.d.'s art work!)

besides; we've been selected for europunk.net's 'band of the month' poll. even though we don't see making music and spreading ideas as a competition or a popularity contest, we are honored with the nomination. (of course only losers dislike competitions … well, competition is for losers!) anyhow, if you want to make clear you like us by voting for us or want to support europunk.net by visiting their site, go to www.europunk.net.
