Thanks to everyone who came
to the Fuk Reading gig over the Bank Holiday weekend and gave
us such a great reception, another eventful Reknaw production
so thanks to Risky, Bev and Austen for their efforts.
Since the last update we have been busy working on finishing new
material for the next 7''. We are recording in September and are
all excited with the songs so far, no dramatic changes just more
of the same - but better! No fuss, no mess just pure impact...
more information when we have actually recorded the songs.
We have some more gigs confirmed which are on the gigs page, we
are also organising a couple more. We unfortunately had to turn
down a few gigs and events recently due to prior commitments but
please still get in touch if you are interested in us playing
as we always try and work something out if at all possible.

Another long overdue update
as I had far more interesting things to do! We have played some
great gigs recently. Particularly fun were the 3 we did with Diskelma
who are a great band - check out their new 'Fun Is Over' LP. We
have a few more gigs confirmed including playing the Saturday
of the Fuk
Reading festival on the 23/08/08 please see the gig page for
details.
The slow grinding march to the recording studio continues...but
the good news is we have 5 raging new tracks that are ready to
be recorded. Once we have finished working on a couple more we
will be looking to get into the studio before the end of the summer,
it's sounding good and all being well we will be releasing a new
7'' before the year is out.
‘Black Ways Of War’ from the Liberation 7’’
is featured on the Angry Scenes 3 compilation CD please see here
for further details. We have a few of these CD's available so
send us e-mail if you are interested.
At some point in the near future in the spirit of direct DIY you
will be able to buy all our releases plus T-shirts, etc direct
from us on this site but in the meantime please e-mail us and
we'll sort something out, cheers.

| 28/04/08 |
We've have been busy
rehearsing and continuing to write some new material. The tracks
are sounding brutal and we are going to be playing some of it
at the upcoming gigs. Unfortunately we are not playing London
on the 03/05/08 but will be playing the Scumfest
benefit gig on the 09/05/08. After that we have some gigs with
the mighty Diskelma
from Finland, sadly due to work /life we can't do the whole tour
but we are playing the first weekend with them. Also we will be
playing at the Snottingham
Punk Crime Capital, as the Nottingham punx picnic is now called,
in June with Cress and Oi Polloi amongst others check out the
website for details, it looks like a great bill. See the gigs
page for details.
We now have new T-shirts incl.
a new double-sided Liberation design with Sonia's awesome artwork
on the front and back. We also have more of the original Cop design
from the demo/7'' cover. Also we have a variety of patches. Pictures
up on the site soon. If you want one T-shirts are £6.00
+ P&P. Drop us a line and we'll work something out. The shopping
cart thing is on hold at the moment so it’s the old fashioned
way all the way!

| 19/03/08 |
Thanks to everyone that came to
the recent gigs in Nottingham, Southampton and the Discharge gig
in Brighton. All were fun in their own way and it was good to see
friends old and new. We are looking forward to the Seein'Red gig
in Brighton on the 22/03/08
which is also a Birthday celebration for Ralf, a good friend of
ours (everybody's?!?), with a few other quality bands, see the gig
page for full details.
Upcoming gigs confirmed include
the North London Punks Picnic. It's a 4-day event 29/05/08 to
01/06/8 that is Thurs. to Sun. and we are playing on Fri. night.
Checkout their website
for more details on the event, there are some awesome bands playing
over the festival which will raise funds for some worthy causes.
We were also asked to play the Faslane peace camp at their Punks
Picnic on 02-04/05/08, details here,
but unfortunately we cannot do it. The event is attracting attention
to the long running protest at Faslane Naval Base, plus a Beltane
celebration in itself. Naturally it's worth supporting if you
can and we are disappointed we can't make it.
There are some major updates
on the way on the website in the near future including a link
to enable online purchasing of all our releases, etc. plus other
quality DIY punk stuff from the distro.
We are also still continuing
to work on new material for a couple of upcoming releases. It
all does seem to take a lot longer than you'd think...
|
| 07/02/08 |
Thanks to everyone that organised
our recent gigs in Bristol, Birmingham, Newcastle and Glasgow and
all those who came along. In particular Si and Kate, Will and Andy
Scoot, whose efforts are all much appreciated. We are playing a
anti fascist benefit in Nottingham
on Saturday 09/02/08, with Liberty amongst others so please come
along and support it if you are anywhere nearby. We have also confirmed
gigs in Southampton,
Brighton (with Discharge
and Seein' Red!)
and London. Please click on the links or see the gig pages for full
details.
We have almost sold out of T-shirts and will be printing more
plus some with a new design very soon, details on here once we
have them. We are continuing to write for the next 7'' and will
be recording once we have a few more tracks finished.
|
| 11/01/08 |
To kick off the New Year we are
playing a long weekend up north this month, before anyone complains
remember we're in Brighton so almost everywhere in the UK is north
to us! It is starting on the 25/01/08 in Birmingham,
26/01/08 Newcastle
and the 27/01/08 in Glasgow,
click on the links for flyers. We also have gigs coming up in Bristol,
Nottingham, Southampton and Brighton over the next couple of months.
Other news is that we
are working on recording another 7''. We have some new material
written that we'll be playing alongside the old tunes at the upcoming
gigs and we are working on some more at the moment. We are looking
at recording sometime in the next few months.
In the meantime we still have
copies of both the self/titled and Liberation 7''s but unfortunately
have sold out of the compilation 7''. We also still have a limited
number of the Angry Scenes compilation CD, and the CDR demo. Please
e-mail for details if you’re interested.
|
| 13/12/07 |
Another long overdue update,
firstly the Southampton gig on Sunday 16/12/07 has been moved
to a different venue, details on the gigs page. Regrettably we
have had to pull out of the Boston gig on Dec. 22/12/07 but it
is still going ahead so if you were going go along anyway and
check out Whole In The Head.
We now have copies of the self-titled
7'' released on Tadpole and it’s available from us for sale/trade.
We think the demo tracks sound even better on the vinyl so if
you liked the CDR demo spoil yourself and get a copy, we don't
think you’ll be disappointed!
We are in the process of arranging
some more UK dates and looking to go back to mainland Europe in
the Spring, probably Holland, Germany and maybe Belgium. We also
will be back in the studio in the New Year to record a new 7’’
and some tracks for some other projects. We’ll publish more
news as these plans slowly take shape.
|
| 16/10/07 |
We've had the test pressings for
the Tadpole 7'' back and they sound awesome, the vinyl gives it
more bottom end than on the orginal CDR so we are pleased so far!
We will have copies for sale/trade very soon and it'll be announced
on here. The Inepsy gig/party in Brighton was utter chaos and enjoyed
by everyone, so thanks to everyone who helped out and made it happen,
never again...!
Unfortunately the Born/Dead gig
in Boston on 14/10/07 was cancelled but we are playing in Boston
on the 22/12/07. We have also got gigs lined up in Portsmouth,
London, Southampton and Glasgow in the next few months, check
the gig pages for details. Our next gig is with Born/Dead in Brighton
on the 26/10/07
|
| 11/09/07 |
The Inepsy gig in Brighton is
at Studio 284 on Wednesday 12/09/07,details on the flyer.
It's going to be a late one but looks like it'll be fun. We have
also confirmed gigs with Born/Dead in Boston and Brighton. Please
see the Gig page for details. |
| 30/08/07 |
To start this overdue update we
would like to say a big thank you to everyone who came to the recent
Brighton gig we put on, War All The Time and Whole In the Head both
played blinding sets and a good drunk punk fuckin' rock evening
was had by all. Also thanks to Nath and Luke for putting us on in
Southampton at the end of June with the Subhumans and SH57, another
blinding gig!
We are in the process of organising some more
gigs that will be posted on the gigs page as they become confirmed.
To kick it off we are playing in Brighton with Inepsy and SH57
on the 12/09/07 the venue tbc.
As previously mentioned Darren from Tadpole
Records is releasing our 5 track demo CDR on 7'' vinyl. This is
definitely going ahead and will be a similar package, same tracks
and artwork, etc, but with some additional new artwork on the
back of the sleeve as we now have more space to be creative with!
It should be avaliable sometime next month or so and we will have
some copies for sale. We are taking pre-orders now and the price
will be £3.00 ppd or £2.50 at gigs. If you are interested
in wholesale/trade please get in touch with us or contact Darren
at Tadpole
and we can work something out.
Finally it is with regret we have to share some
sad news. Stephane Adamski from Squawk Records who helped put
out our recent single was found dead last week. We met as Adam
got in touch with us as he loved our demo and asked if he could
get get involved if we were releasing anything. He subsequently
helped us out because of a shared passion for the message and
music of the punk/DIY scene. He was one of the good guys. Our
sympathies and regrets are with Stephane's (Adam's) family and
friends.

| 27/06/07 |
Thanks to everyone that came
to Snottingham and Scumfest gigs and to the promoters for inviting
us to play and making it happen. Also apologies to anyone who
tried to come to the Streatham gig it was unfortunately cancelled
at late notice by the promoters SDLC as there was a problem with
the venue. Next gig is with the Subhumans in Southampton on the
28/06/07, details on the gig page.
We are really pleased that Tadpole
records have offered to put out our first demo as a 7''. It'll
have all the songs, artwork from the CDR plus a slightly reworked
cover. This should be out at some point over the summer. We also
have a few other things planned for the later in the year and
naturally will publish the details here as soon as they are confirmed.
We have now sold out of the 'Same
Shit, Different Day' compilation 7''. If you are looking for a
copy try Whole In The Head as they may have some left. There are
still some t-shirts and the new ‘Liberation’ 7’’
available please e-mail for details.

| 23/05/07 |
The Liberation 7’’ is now out and

We had a great time on the tour
with Visions Of War in France. A big thanks to them and our respective
drivers, Mermouille and Nick for efforts above and beyond the
call of duty. Also cheers to all the gig promoters for looking
after us and all the other bands and everyone who came to the
gigs, it was much appreciated and we had a blast. The final damage
was a blown Marshall amp head, a fucked tuner and a destroyed
cab not bad going in 5 days!
