Packin' up, packin' in
We'll be playing our last ever gig in Germany (not just last ever in Berlin, sorry) this coming Saturday, 25 August at Kastanienkeller in Berlin together with our mates from GOVERNMENT FLU.
Why? Well, after our South East Asian tour last year, things have gone very quiet for us for a number of reasons, including fathering children, working new jobs, etc. Additionally we realised that the last new song was written when we were recording the second LP. And while planning the third album had already started, some of us couldn't muster the needed enthusiasm to see it through in the face of the aforementioned adversities and strain on time and resources. So rather than artificially prolonging the whole affair for a couple of months trying to revive the 2008 state of affairs, we'd like to make it quick and easy. 6 years of archaic hardcore punk must be enough. We had originally planned to play a number of weekends more, but this won't happen anymore. We're still planning to do a weekend in the UK, but Saturday will be the last European mainland gig, so see ya there!
Thanks, we had a blast (and so have you) and will have another one on Saturday.

War is over
We have to cancel the upcoming tour in April because of work shit (Poznan & Wroclaw rejoice: The first weekend is still go!). Gutted. Perhaps there'll be another one later this year. In the meantime, we'll just write a new album. FUCK OUR LIVES!

Frying Pan to Fire
Sorry folks, we had to cancel Saturday's gig at Alte Pauline in Detmold. A matter of life and death (well, jive and jazz more like). We'll be back another time. Leipzig is still a go, thankfully!

Format to Format
The Nikt Nic Nie Wie CDs are ready and on the way to us here in Berlin. Expect them to be available at our Berlin gig on 1 April. The latest. If we're lucky, we might be able to bring some to Leipzig and Detmold as well. Also, the good folks at Revulsion Recs. and Cactus Recs. will put out both albums on one tape in time for our South East Asian tour! We're thrilled! Thanks, Talib. And if you haven't had enough yet, there'll be a split CD with Michael Crafter (a power-violence outfit from Oz) and Injakmati (a raw punk band from Indonesia), and a DIY CD-R version of the 2-album tape (for those less cursed with funds) as well, the latter courtesy of our friend Dolly. Full blast!

Back to Back
We're back from tour and had a blast! Elaborate thank yous, etc. to follow. Forgot to include the lyrics to BINHEAD in the inner sleeve for the new album. Also to follow. Didn't realise we were playing our 100th gig in Leicester on this past tour. Well, we did. This is the new website. Buy the new album from our "shop" soon (send us an email if it's not online yet: mail@NOSPAM.family-man.org (delete the NOSPAM. bit, obviously, before sending). Or get it from either Behind The Scenes Recs. or Hasiok Recs. Best get it from us though.
