Summertime and vacation, I am even less active online. Sorry about that. I have atleast got little done, check the video above. Only one week left until we do live premiere in our hometown at Storsjöyran.
Radiation Records (Anaheim, CA) took all our money
Chris very tired after a hard day at "work"
Totem poles at Royal BC museum, Victoria (Canada)
The Canadians were often verytired for some reason...
As always, great fucking thanks to all promotors/venues, everyone who gave us support/food/shelter plus all amazing bands we played with. Last but absolutely not least big up's to the crazy funny nerds in ABSOLUT + Trevor (the solid tour driver). We had a total blast and I/we miss you like hell! Europe up next.
We have some tour leftovers (like shirts, screenprinted poster, beer koozie etc...) if anyone is interested. Mail at pndftw@gmail.comand ask for full list. Absolut/Paranoid split 12" reissue also available.
Europe beware! Two of my favorite bands, Scumraid and Sex Dwarf, ripping it up on a non-stop erotic noise crusade through Europe in June. Now with new bass player in the luggage. Do not miss it. For tour dates, cities, venues and further information check out THIS main tour event.
I'm not going to sit here and defend and explain my, or the bands I play in, decisions. No one, except I, the band(s) and the labels involved, have any idea what's been said and agreed. For all the rest, why bother?
Just because I and others appear to believe your bullshit, doesn't mean
we're as stupid as you think we are. We're just laughing inside and
waiting to see what else you come up with. FUCK OFF!
I have and will always support the DIY punk scene, no question about it! If you think otherwise you're either ignorant or extremely stupid. Gaki (Konton Crasher) is still a great friend of mine and there are no words to describe my gratitude for all he's done for me in private, but also for 偏執症者 (Paranoid). I will always support Gaki and his label, and the fact is that we will work together again in the near future.
It's true that we will re-release "Satyagraha" on Southern Lord for our upcoming US (west coast) tour. Which actually was the origin plan. Konton Crasher still have copies left of the first press (gatefold version w/ free cd included!) that you can and should buy HERE at firsthand unless you already got it.
My passion for punk, independency, diy and the underground scene have always been my greatest inspiration. Its a big part of my life and identity, and thats the main reason why I still running D&R. Even do it requires more time and money than I actually really have. Död åt vek punk!
We are the road crew (+ Andy/Viral Age)! Gianluca/Split Veins, we had a blast, Cheers. Thanks to all promotors; Kev, Jack, Ben and Andy + all great bands that we played with. Unfortunately Skiplickers had to cancel on short notice. Which was a shame cause I was really looking forward to see them again. CrashThePose helped us out with the tour shirt (Stu, they came out great!). Check out CTP web this upcoming weeks for unique and new 偏執症者 (Paranoid) shirt designs. Last but not least, Pogger for the amazing art.
I really cant figure out why there is not more fuzz about Split Veins. They just released a great record, get it from Godzilla, like pronto. Viral Age Records just repressed a vinyl version of "Punkdemonium Hell" including a cover of 'Nightmare or Reality' by Disclose. 600 copies with covers printed on cream cardboard an full colour obi strip. 500 copies on black vinyl and 100 on gold with extra screen printed cover. Labels and distros, get in touch with Viral Age for w/s and trades.

We thought we would celebrate the "Punkdemonium Hell" reissue with a
new video. Now I leave you with all this and go to Norway for a short
vacation. Talk more when I'm back mid next week.
