MESSY, ISN'T IT? UP NOW!

If you missed out on the pre-order (which i am almost certain you did, judging by the emails of various sleepers and non-doers across our fine imperial continent), Messy, Isn't It?, in its proper form, is available to purchase right now here at the Vitriol Records webstore. This will sent out in 2 weeks, so just rub your grubby hands together until then, and think about how sad your parents will be when it arrives.

"Messy, Isn't It?" Prdrs 12AM Jan 2

Alright miscreants, the Messy, Isn't It? LP+CD+special-preorder-surprise will be up and available for purchase this January 2nd at 12 am on the Vitriol Records webstore. Make sure to check that out because there are only going to be about 140 of them, and I ain't messin'. The preorder will include:

• the record on black vinyl out of 150 (the rest will be red out of 1000)
  
• the 36x24 inch poster layout with CD affixed
  
• something special involving photographs exclusive to these first 140 orders
  

It will be "cool" and "worth it" and fodder for your future eBay auction. To make it easier this time, the preorders will be US $20 (the shipping is included). Orders to places outside of the United States will have more shipping involved.

Don't miss out on what Decibel Magazine describes as our "scattershot, angular blasts of basement show post-punk/screamo and especially incisive lyrics," brah:

Record release shows are in the works for February/March.
Australian tour being planned for June.
Incessant confusion regarding the human decision-making process ongoing.

Just trying to make a buck,

Hyde Park Half redux

First off, go click on that crewneck sweathshirt to the right and buy it. Now, read on...

Thank you times one million to Lewd Acts for letting us torment ourselves down in your Escondido garage. It is a strange thing to be playing these new songs. Trying to figure out new material puts you right back to square one as a band and it's humbling and exciting and devastating each time. There was a car wreck up the street sometime after we played and in some ways it was like a ghost image of our set. We were ultimately gratified to have seen the sets of both Hot Skin and Hour of the Wolf, both bands whom fall under the "will actually listen to their CDs and not just play shows with them" category. After the show we ran into a person named Taylor that has continually supported our band. He asked some questions about the new record and here's what the answers were:

1. "Yeah, Pirates Press has all the music and artwork now so we're just waiting on them."
2. "Probably around January 10."
3. "Black vinyl."
4. "Or maybe two different colors - black and white, like me."
5. "There should never be a line in front of a men's restroom."
   

In Hyde Park Half news, another meeting was had today and slow-but-steady progress is being made. If you haven't yet had a chance to check out a show there, please do so. Non-profit status is being secured and a full-scale tutoring/test prep/arts instruction center will be opening by summer. Please get involved! And, in the meantime, go to our show there:

What else would you like to know? That our van got towed at the request of the Buena Park Police Department? That we will be having band practice all day long this coming Saturday? That we are waist-deep in the planning stages of our Australian tour? That we will be doing some sweet shows in March starting in Los Angeles and going up to Vancouver? That we are stoked to all hell that so many of you hate the artwork that you haven't yet seen? That we like our song titles just fine, thank you very much?

Or would you rather know about a great new (to us) place to eat called Simply Wholesome? Or that you can see all of Vincent Van Gogh's annotated letters for free on the internet? Or that Clear Channel is installing new billboards along the western mouth of the 91, just so I can have more shit to look at as I drive to Justin's house? Or that I'm in week six of P90X? That we were ultimately (very) disappointed that Lawrence hit that field goal to beat Nebraska because we wanted Obama to have to settle the BCS debacle that would have ensued? That your hybrid ain't got shit on diesel? That Juan Carlos Gabe has a middle name that we were totally unaware of until today?

I watched Food, Inc. recently and regardless of whatever politico/brainwashy/propagandizing was obviously stitched into the celluloid of that film, I just could not understand the insanity that is seed patenting. Every member of DANGERS is vegetarian or vegan and we all have our own reasons for having made that choice. However, one might very well wish he was a robot so as to not eat anything at all.

Lastly, check out the new Graf Orlock website. Sniping can be fun.

It's shower season,

Break Down The Walls

Hi. We are playing a house show tonight with our friends Graf Orlock and Lewd Acts tonight in Escondido, California. If our music doesn't interest you, perhaps the fact that we'll have some new crewneck sweatshirts for sale will. If that doesn't do it, Pokez is close and you eat like a king. See you tonight:

SAT DEC 5: San Diego, CA @ 883 Eden Pl, Escondido, CA 92026 w/ Lewd Acts, Graf Orlock, Hour of the Wolf

Ivory Coast FTW,

Wayne The Train

I just got back from seeing Wayne The Train Hancock at the Continental Club with my old best friend and a slew of other dance-shoe enthusiasts. A great way to celebrate being thankful. What a great show. Great great great. He's the motherfucking "viper of melody" for goodness sake. Anyway, that show running long meant that you got to hear the record for a few extra hours. Hooray! It's no longer up, but you will be able to buy it at Vitriol Records very soon. For those of you that lent your voice to the reading of the poem, you will be handsomely rewarded. For those of you that have already ripped the stream and are spreading our record on mediafire or whatever, we hope you contract mouth herpes. We are totally fine with passing the record out, but the lyrics are very important to us and it's a bummer to have people listening along without reading along. Anyway, you give a mouse a cookie, right?

Thanks for tuning in.

See you in Sanger tomorrow.

We'll be playing in the evening.

Here's the address:

Sanger, CA @ 730 Recreation St., Sanger, CA 93657

Boom boom,
