Vaskatoon + Grimmgore + Aussie Grind Madness

Hey, holy chirst in a sidecar, has it been a long time since anything was added to this fantasti-blog of bullshit and chaos. It isn't that we haven't been sort of half-assedly jamming on a part-time basis, it's just that hammering out stinking piles of brutal shit-caked riffery isn't exactly news worthy on a weekly basis. But rest assured, things are happening, even if they are only happening at a half-headed snails' pace.

We are settled into our new jam spot and are re-learning a couple old tunes off the first album. To celebrate this crap, we are headed out to Saskatoon on November 17th to play there for about the 7th time since we started the band back in the 00's. Looks like we are playing with DKES?0F8USFD[K and Narcissistic. Great times await!

And once we return, we will be playing the first basement show we have played in years. Man, those werethe days! Police cars, drunk tanks, drunk arseholes...

We will be playing with CLOUD RAT from Michaigan and THEDOWNGOING from Sydney, Australia (!) as well as PLAGUE on Monday, November 26th. It's going to be packed which is nice because the sad news is that this gig will be the last that Jean Louis Wittinger wil be playing with us. Jean Louis has been at the core of this band since its' inception and has recently decided to stop futily banging his head against a wall listening to the same stupid stories about the same lame people.It's been a real joy to have him in the band and we are sad to see him go. More info on a replacement to follow. And no, we do't need your bullshit fucking melodic death metal influences, so you can just fuck off and leave us alone, thanks. Anyhow, the show is happening at All The Way House at 651 Home Street. Cover is $6 for the out of towners. Doors at 7pm, music at 7:30pm sharp.

Well that's all for now, dog shits. See you in 2013!

Summers' Laughter part 1.

Alright then. So in case you missed out, we recently played at the Cavern in Winnipeg with Cetascean and Zombie Assault. Or as it is now known as "The Crator". Bloody hell. Good times. We will see if we are ever allowed back to trash theat place ever again.

Up next for us is an opening slot at the upcoming AHNA/WOLBACHIA split 7" release party happening at Negative Space in Winnipeg on April 11th. IT will be our first time at this awesome venue and in addition to the two bands of honour, we are looking forward to playing with Squamosh maniacs PRISON VIOLENCE and FIENDISH, who we are told are members of Archagathus and Loutish worshipping Autopsy. Holy shitballs! This gig of brutality should be a gas. $10. Starts at 7:30pm, show over by 11:00pm.

Putrescence/Archagathus split 7" back in stock

Hey, we just got in a few copies of the under-promoted Putrescence/Archagathus split 7". Never heard of it? That's too bad. Don't own it? Mailorders are happening now.
People who understand the CDN postal system know how abysmal it is. So, just for this particular blog update, the first 5 orders come with a free copy of the Putrescence/I Die Screaming split 7". Since the cost of shipping doesn't change, it makes good sense to offer this shit up. Two records for the price of one!... paypal orders are postage paid as follows: $12 Canada/$12 US/$18 world.
