FUCKED UP + VICTIMS = Goodbye touring

I will jump in a van again for a short time. I know, i know i said i will not tour again but it’s the last tour with my van (i’ll sell it to Niko from Hannover after the tour -> info(at)pain-of-mind.com) and i wanna have some good times with my loved Canadians of FU and go up to my Swedish family in Stockholm and do the traditional Suomi trip with Victims. Check the DATES section.

DISFEAR - “Misanthropic Generation” LP

It’s done, after quite some time this fine release is available on vinyl again. Misanthropic Generation is Disfears 4th album and the first one with their current lineup (missing Uffe) and the one which made them step out/further from their old style. Still D-Beat but more rock, still brutal but more groove = just fucking brilliant. 13 songs (one vinyl only song) of crushing d-beat with rocking melodies. The record comes in a nice heavy cardboard gatefold. 500 on dark olivgreen/black marbled vinyl! The Cd is available from Relapse and the vinyl was originally done by Feralward and I licensed it from Relapse.
Oh, for the ‘name droppers’: featuring Henrik Frykman and Björn Pettersson from Anti-Bofors and Marcus Andersson from Oxelösund!!!

LA FAMILIA FEST is over = time to take a break

LA FAMILIA FEST was an amazing blast. All 3 shows were sold out and burst from the energy from the crowd and the bands. Thanks to all the promoters and venues for their effort. Thanks to all the bands and the DJ for coming, play and kick ass live. Thanks to all my friends who came by and made the evenings so great and thanks to all visitors to provide such energy and fun. Sorry to all the people who couldn’t get in and especially sorry to the organizers who had to make sure that no more people get in and got a lot of bullshit for that.
Now i take a break from the activist front. I will still release records and take part in some releases but all communication concerning tours, shows, records, business and so on has to go through info@punkdistro. I need time to focus on my health and future.
