Benefit gig for the 15 anti fascist arrestees

Tonight, we are taking part at a benefit gig at ASOEE University for the 15 arrestees of the anti fascist patrol that took place on Sunday the 30th of September in Athens. Following a clash with fascists, cops attacked the patrol and those arrested were later abused and tortured by greek police. Support the cause. Check out this article by Guardian.

Underground EP

Hey, we regret to announce that the much anticipated LP version of our debut album seems very unlikely to happen. Blame bad arrangements and the whole shitty economic situation here etc 

Anyway, the good news is that we decided to release a new two-track CD EP entitled Underground, containing two unreleased tracks from the album sessions: Underground and Outta My Mind.

The new EP will be a limited edition of 300 CD's and will be given away for free at gigs hand to hand. It will be also made available as a free digital download in bandcamp.

Since the CD of our debut has long been sold out, we have repressed another batch of CD's available from us, Fuzz Overdose Records and usual r'n'r record stores.

Stay tuned and remember...we're all lost somewhere in the Underground!

Saristra Festival 2012

On Saturday the 11th of August we are playing  the Saristra Festival 2012 at the beautiful island of Kefalonia. The Festival takes place at the old and now abandoned village of Karavomilos which was eventually destroyed completely during a terrible earthquake that took place back in the the early 50's.

Check out the Saristra Fest page for more information here.

So if you happen to be around drop by. If not well...why don't you visit for the weekend and enjoy some cold beer, the sun, the sea and some r'n'r??
