Ladeez and germs,

It's been a while, as the dog shit awful god rockers Nickelback are want to remind me every time I turn on the fucking goddamn RADIO!!!!! .......sorry about that. pet hates an all... anyhow on with the show....

New Signings ahoy!

SUPERSUCKERS!!!!! Yes that's right, THE Supersuckers, as in godfathers of modern rock n roll you heathen scum!!!!! I'm not even going to get started about how much this means to us all as the signings recently seem to just get more and more exciting so you'll already be sick of me wetting my pants. Suffice to say that in September we'll be doing the European release of their latest album It Must Have Been Live and if all goes according to plan we'll be looking at a new studio rock n roll monster next year. Don't say we're not good to you!!!

YOB. Straight out of Portland Oregon, YOB (who's debut album Emission of Carbon can be found on the excellent 12th records) have decided to throw done whit da L'sound. You have no fucking idea how heavy this band is. Imagine Burning Witch doing a cover version of Jerusalem in a space vacuum. Utterly crushing. The riffs are so punishing that I damn near had a panic attack listening to the rough mixes. no less than studio maestro Billy Anderson himself has ASKED to mix n master the record to ensure maximum bowel loosening low end violence.

and in other news........

Backdraft as hard grafting as ever slayed em in the aisles on their jaunt through Holland with Five Horse Johnson. they're getting some new material together now for the follow up to "Here to Save You All" and if the stuff we've been treated to in the live set is anything to go by I think it's going to be a monster.

Nunchukka Superfly. heading your way soon. the beast will be unleashed next month so I would suggest smoking a few bowls to attain the correct, er, "mindset".

Sir Hedgehog and Cracktorch are rocking as hard as ever and hopefully you'll be heading over to the shop to pick up a copies of their new albums. Both of them are fuckin' genius and should be more than enough to keep you footstompin' and headbanging for the rest of the summer. Keep eyes peeled for touring soon.

Acid Ape currently putting the finishing touches to their release party plans. If anyone happens to be in Gothenburg on the 29 of sept then you'll most likely notice a lot of noise. Drop by and check it out. you won't be disappointed.

Roadsaw are demoing new songs and building their own studio. Time consuming but worth the wait we're sure. "Anything that helps get the rawk to the people brutha's and sisters"

Valis will be hitting the ground running in September with the delivery of their debut long player V.A.L.I.S, not content to hang around though, they're already working on the follow up......

Leadfoot are raring to go. They're been doing a few select shows around their home turf but they're most eager to get back over here to Europe and kick some rock n roll for your soul. the new album is due for an October release but trust me when I say it's worth the wait

Generous Maria are in the process of setting up some shows and basking in the glory of their excellent press. "A new album sure, but more than that, it's a declaration - of war, of independence, maybe just of rock supremacy, but all you really need to know right now is that it's big, it's menacing, and it's headed your way, motherfucker.” - Sleazegrinder :Carbon 14 / hit List. Look out for a possible Generous Maria / Backdraft tour this year.

Black Moses have had a name change...and then some. Officially the band have broken up and regrouped under a different name as "License to destroy". their writing is taking a turn for the more high energy style so they've decided to start afresh along with new boy Steve D'enton (ex Quickspace) as drummer. They're now in the managerial hands of a certain Mr Alan McGee so I think it's safe to say you'll be hearing more from them soon.....

3D House Of Beef are on permanent hold at the moment. main man Nial McGaughey has taken up residence amongst the ranks of the legendary underground noise terrorists 16. You'll hear more from them soon......

Gorilla are writing new material and getting things together for a possible Swedish mini tour. they're preparing to head into the studio for a new album sometime in the near future, but in true Gorilla style, we can't be sure when :-)
