Alright . . . I'll bite. Grifter's new album = "one of the most important true rock and roll albums of 2011"

Yay!!!

Mixing is all finished now. We just need to decide on a running order then send it over to Mr. Tony Reed to master!!!

We have a track on the latest download compilation that accompanies Doom Metal Front issue 5...40 of the best underground bands from the UK and Ireland...happy listening

The album is all mixed and has been sent over to Tony from Stone Axe for mastering. We've had the initial artwork come through so that all just needs to be formatted then we're ready to go.

The track listing for the album is;

Good Day For Bad News
Alabama Hotpocket
Asshole Parade
Strip Club
Young Blood Old Veins
Bucktooth Woman
Preacher And The Devil
Bean
Piss And Gas
Unwelcome Guest
Gone Blues

Hopefully we're looking at a release on Ripple Music in May/June sort of time and plan to get out on the road to support the release after that.

"Alabama Hotpocket" better sound like Black Oak Arkansas.

Of course it does...just a bit slower, a bit heavier and a bit dirtier.

Hotter N Nastier!

Yep, especially of you look up what it means!!!!

Nice maturity level.

Absolutely no maturity level whatsoever!!!

Here's a nice little interview we just did at Dr Doom's Lair

How did you do it?

When you're logged into your page there should be a little bit near the top in tiny letters that says something like "change your username"...or you can try and do it through the settings.

I believe the release date for the Heavey Ripples split vinyl is set for April 19th (please correct me if this is wrong though!!!)

Dude! Just in time for 420!!

Hahaha yeah dude...and just in time for Stone Axe to get home from their Euro tour.

Just in time to HEMP IT UP!!

Album mastering is go!!!! Yeehaw!!!

Just trying to get an album cover together, not proving to be an easy task as the original sketch we had doesn't really work. Anyone know any good artists willing to donate?

Many thanks to The Soda Shop for being the first to review the upcoming Heavy Ripples double 7" gatefold release with Stone Axe, Sun Gods in Exile, Grifter and Mighty High.

All new songs, not found elsewhere

We're playing at The Junction in Plymouth this Friday if there are any rock and roll types on here down in the West Country. Support from the excellent Tricorn.

It's looking like we're going to be playing at The Edge Of The Wedge with Tricorn on Friday April 19th if there are any south coast folk here.

Two weeks to Heavy Ripples!!!!

We're hitting Portsmouth tonight at Edge Of The Wedge with Tricorn if anyone is in the area.
