SPOILT HK BANDS!

wow, just re-watched the Converge "long road home" video, & i realised most of the venues are like school halls! the pa's are not amazing, & yet anything less than perfection doesnt seem to be good enough for a lot of local hk bands.
then again, Converge have a true punk/hardcore attitude, these guys just wanna bust their asses playing as many shows as possible.
im glad a small punk scene is starting to show up in hk, oi! squad, defiant scum & my band (rat alley) will be playing more shows soon, & we will put on a good show with whatever we got!
if i could afford to i would be putting on shows everyweek, but with the cost of kit i cant, this could be one of the many things holding hk back, coz lets face it for a city like hk, the music scene is weak.

SCT Records.....

ok, so i just posted this pic on my other blog, but i thought i'd put it here too!
just had the new sct designs printed, mock up's of the 10" vinyl that i will hopefully (fingers crossed!) end up getting pressed! this is basically the format i would like all SCT releases to eventually be.

IRON MAN!

so, there is finally a GOOD Marvel movie!
saw iron man last night & it was awesome! didnt like x-men, hated spiderman (how is it possible to ruin spiderman?)
anyway, final some one has got it right. directed by JON FAVREAU (from one of my all-time favourite films swingers) has done an awesome job & Robert Downey jnr was great as Tony Stark

ANTHRAX!

Chris (Flahaven) copied a load of cd's for me, including the entire Anthrax back catalogue, & i'd forgotten how much i love them!
been rockin the early stuff non stop.

NEW MELVINS ALBUM!

it's called "nude with boots" & thought i'd hunt for it on the off chance it had been leaked...... & it had!
The band still includes founding member King Buzzo and Dale Crover, and they still have the Big Business guys Jared Warren and Coady Willis playing with them. didnt grab me by the balls like "(a) senile animal" (their last album, 2006) but it's really growing on me! some nice 70's rock moments, as well as some epic stuff & some typical melvins noise! due for release July 8th.
it will be their 24th anniversary this year, & they will be releasing lots of viny + a dvd so it's looking busy!

MIGHTY TWO HEADED DP WARRIOR!

ha ha, this is something i knocked together for DP! been working on a few designs with Julia for DP shirt designs & decided i'd do this too! should post the shirt designs soon, just wanna get the final go ahead from DP.

CHIHUAHUA SMACK!

ok, so one of my chihuahua's (BUSTER) goes absolutely nuts everytime i have gummy bears!


MILO was not impressed!
