We're not gonna take it. NOOOOOO! We aint gonna take it...

In case some of you have not heard, we are not really a band any more. No explanations or he said this/he said that nonsense. You will probably hear a different account of the weirdness by each member of the band. I personally think everyone (on the planet) is out of their damn mind.

Meh. So it goes. I have been sleeping great none the less.

But. We had an awesome tour, released a record (If you want one, let us know!!!), and we all have our health. Some of us are doing other bands. We will be playing around. To our health!

How do you work this thing?

So I finally watched Metalokolypse. Show was pretty funny. Pretty accurate portrayals of primadonna metalheads oblivious about anything but their own gain, which is the norm for most of you intellectual Dragonforce and Trivium fans. Murderface is pretty awesome though.

We are pretty much doing jack right now. Writing here and there. Two new songs are pretty much completed. You be the judge on how it sounds when you hear it. Other than that, we all pretty much bicker about dumb shit and still wish we can sound like KARP meets Bolt Thrower. The only thing is, those bands had talent. See you later!!!

We are back. What is happening now?

Tour was a success, by what I guess a DIY tour is judged by. We are all alive, we are all still friends, and we even made a couple bucks. Saw some amazing bands that went beyond the spectrum of hardcore/punk/noise/crust/metal/grind etc (Ghettoblaster, Mothercountry Motherfuckers, Deadman, Cull, Death Crisis, Ronoso, Tenderizer, Tigon, Lumberlung to name a few).  Saw some rowdy shit, people getting destroyed. Smoked some shit. People lighting roman candles in a small bar room. A huge twenty minute pillow fight in Chico. Getting offered ecstasy on Ocean Beach (Want some yellow telephones?) from some hippies. The shows were generally pretty awesome. The drives were pretty mellow as well, minus a couple close calls on the road. One tends to think about death alot, after almost colliding with on coming cars, while on a high come down, in a van with no seat belts. Yeah, not fun.

I have to say that one of the best parts of tour was getting to see Same-Sex Dictator every night.  They pretty much blew us out of the water every night. I can honestly say, there are a healthy amount of bass/drum duos in the underground. S-SD do it with way more substance, and are crushingly heavier. Bow down to the space-violence.

So we are home now. I had a plan to try and lay low, and detox my body, and generally get better after getting sick the last week. But I play in three bands, so it was right back to playing shows in Seattle, going to shows I was committed to seeing, and running shows that I booked. Not to mention being drunk the first three nights back. We have seen each other here and there since getting back. I think we all agree that writing new songs is the main purpose for all of us right now, and this writer hopes we can slow down the pace of our new songs, and put a little more angularity into our writing, so we can sound more than just a "metal" band. Whether we start writing sooner or later, I could really care less right now, as playing 2-4 shows a month is not sounding as awesome as drum building, listening to vinyl, hanging with my wife and cat, drinking, riding bikes, and hopefully playing some slow music. Freiburger took tons of pictures with the plethora of disposable cameras he brought with him. Hopefully we can post them for your viewing pleasure sometime this decade. Until then, fuck you. Listen to Born Against.

Look what you did you little jerk!

More dates have been added to our tour with Same-Sex. We leave in a little over a month. I am excited to see some old faces I have not seen in a couple of years. We will have new shirt designs made, plus an ultra limited design which will be screened by yours truly, which will only be available on this tour. We are also going to be designing (hopefully) tour posters with the solidified tour dates on it. That is it for now. Listen to Born Against.
