This Sunday (Feb 3) we're playing at the Trumbull with Rifle Diet from Minneapolis.  Len is heading to the land of Blankets and Hounds so this will be our last show with him and as a four piece until he gets back next year.  We'll carry on in the meantime as a three piece with some new songs and evolutionary sound.

Record release show + Indiana shows

April 21 at the Corktown Tavern (1716 Michigan Ave, Detroit, MI), it's a triple record release show for Bill Bondsmen, Final Assault and ourselves, plus  Population from Chicago.  The Fight Like Hell 7"s are here and ready.  Covers are hand dyed, so it's taking a while to get the entire run ready for distribution, but we'll have plenty for these shows.

They're pretty sweet.  Covers of old Michigan and Ohio bands on the B side, namely the Amboy Dukes, Necros, and Cold As Life.  Give the A side a listen here.



And then the next weekend we're going to venture into deepest Indiana.  Friday, April 27th is in Fort Wayne, and Saturday, April 28th is in Indianapolis.  Haven't played their since the time the bass player of Vegan Reich wanted to fight the guitarist of my old band over a case of sideburns-inspired mistaken identity.  Details to follow.

Playing a few shows

Someone made a baby so we haven't played in a few months. Time to get back at it. Fight Like Hell 7" will be out in a couple weeks at shows and for mailorder, with wholesale distribution in a month or two with the next Burai Core 12".

Saturday February 18 at the New Way Bar, 23130 Woodward Avenue  Ferndale, MI 48220-1341, 18+, $5, doors at 9
Nightbringer, Final Assault, From Hell, Exploder, Wells


March 4 at Michigan Underground Group, 5984 Lincoln Detroit, MI, 7pm

Bandcamp, all the cool kids are using it

I made a Bandcamp site for us a couple weeks ago, pretty sweet.  You can download the demo, listen to the 7" and comp track, and today I put up the A-sides to the next two singles.


So that means they will be out in the next couple months.

I think the next show is May 21st at the Metal Frat, then June 10 with Origin of M at the Shelter.
May 21st - 8pm

Woah, time for an update!

What the hell, its been like a year.  First, foremost and immediately, Burning Love are coming through the area for three shows and we're playing the first one.

We are also playing the sixth annual Michigan Meltdown in Grand Rapids on Friday with such luminaries as the Wankys and Lotus Fucker.  We're going to listen to nothing but the first two Slapshot records and AF "Liberty & Justice For..."on the way out.  Inside joke.  Check http://grscreamer.com for the info.

And then we're playing June 24th at the Lager House with H8 Inc and a few more.  That will most likely be our last show until September due to personal commitments for July and August.

Back to the news.  We have started putting on a monthly hardcore show at the Shelter called Fight Like Hell.  Search for the group on Facebook, I have no idea how to link directly to it.  The first show was a week or two ago with Slang, Mind Eraser, (us), Final Assault, and Disconnected.  Thanks to everyone who came out and made it a success.

The second show is going to be July 24th with H8 Inc and All My Blood, plus one more.  The Suicide Machines show is upstairs at St Andrews, so this will be the after party, $6 or $3 with a SM ticket stub.

Then we'll be back in September, most likely with the Nightbringer 7" release show.  October's Fight Like Hell show is shaping up to have a certain reunion, we'll let the cat out of the bag once everything is confirmed.

Wait, what was that?  A Nightbringer record?  Sure, what the hell, we've only been a band for six years. figured we might as well.  Due for release this summer on High Anxiety, three songs (One of These Days, No Sleep Till Death, and Death of Heathen Gods).  A veritable sonic hammer, wait and see.

We spent the last two months recording (ok, everyone else spent two weeks recording, then I spent two months overdubbing) a ton of instrument tracks.  First and foremost is the second 7", due out in September or October on Deer Healer.  Brand new, never demo-ed song 31st And Michigan paired with A Better Tomorrow, which is enhanced from the CIUT session version by bringing back Matt Simpson for some hot dual guitar action.  Somewhere around the same time the Spider Cuddler Detroit covers comp should come out, all current Detroit bands covering old Detroit bands.  Since we're really only a Detroit band by association, we picked a similarly non-Detroit band to cover.  Also in the works is the Schizophrenic Records cross border hardcore comp of Detroit and Windsor bands.  Two new tunes on that.  Next on the agenda is to con someone in Europe to compile all this stuff on a 12".

So yeah.  Busy busy.  Life is unpredictable, keep moving.

Good times, comin' your way

Saturday, 9.19.09, we're doing two shows with Burning Love from Toronto. The early show is at Refuge in Dearborn and the late show will be at the Metal Frat in Ann Arbor. It should be outrageously ridiculous.

We're recording vocals for the first 7" now. Three songs, for release on High Anxiety (Chris from Cursed's label). Another 7" will follow on Deer Healer, and we have basic tracks for a few songs for the LP. If we're lucky that will be done by the end of winter. Loud stuff is being recorded down in Toledo with JC at Bottom of the Lake, vocals are being done up here with Clifton at Blackfeather. Its kind of funny having three guys from Earthmover working together again, mostly we just say filthy stuff, tell ridiculous stories and play with guns.

The Demented Anthem Hardcore Assemblage comp will be out on CD September 1st, we'll have copies and I'll have some in the Burai Core distro. Vinyl to follow, hopefully.
NIGHTMARE(大阪)、CROSSFACE(東京)、WORMS MEAT(東京)、AFTER THE BOMBS(カナダ)、 BLUDWULF(ニューヨーク)、三日月爆音団(浦和)、NIGHTBRINGER(アメリカ)、悪AI意 (北九州)、WARCRY(ポートランド)、CRUDE(函館)、WORLD BURNS TO DEATH(テキサス)、KRIEGSHOG(東京）、NO VALUE(東京)、TOLAR(テキサス)、DOOMSDAY HOUR(カナダ)、九狼吽(名古屋)、NO PROBLEM(東京)、INEPSY(カナダ)、JHABARA(東京)、THE DISKONECTED(カナダ)、ORIGIN OF [M](廣島)、AGGRESSION (高知)、ONEDAY(富山)、SEVERED HEAD OF STATE(テキサス)、DESTROYED NATURAL BEAST(盛岡)、UNIT 21(テキサス)

You should be able to download the radio session here, its basically "the Len demo" as the only recording with the current line up. If you can't download it, then I fucked up, you can at least listen to it. http://www.myspace.com/keepupthefight

Playing for free at the Garden Bowl friday. Should be a blast.
