In a disappointing case of life imitating art, our friends in Adequate 7 have taken their own advice somewhat too literally and have decided to call it a day. They had this to say on the matter but if you ask me, it was just a question of time when you're dealing with trousers whiter and tighter than any man should wear.
Sartorial speculation aside, we're honoured to be playing some of their last shows in Southampton (5th Oct) and London (30th Sept). It should will be fucking amazing. If they're playing near you, do the right thing and go see them because bands like them don't (and won't) come around very often.

Speaking of fucking amazing, we're astounded that Lifetime asked us to support them on their handful of UK shows. Like the man from Del Monte, we said 'yes'. We can't wait!

Shook Ones are touring here for a couple more days, go see them if you like having a good time. Also make sure to demand a re-enactment of 'grunge night' over and over as I did. They didn't do it, but then the police did catch me redhanded (or 'yellowhanded' if you will) doing a wee on the beach. So perhaps karma really did have its way in the end.

also, this guided tour-cum-documentary of washington dc hardcore's most sacred spots is really interesting. check it out if that kind of thing floats your boat. GO!

oh look, it's 2.28am. goodnight!
