Sorry for not posting anything in a while, but hey, we are schmucks.

JT throws in the towel to give all his love to his new son and family. Good luck! We are very happy for him.

We are recording a new LP in “our new studio”. We’re just recording all the shit-load of songs that we’ve got. At the end of the day we’ll see which songs and how many who will end up on the new record. Its gonna be a record in the same old schmucks style. Rock, punk, funk, reggae, you name it, we’ve got it! Jt have laid down some bass for some songs. Our good friend and amazing bassist Svein from Olafly, and our other project Rastapopoulos, will do the rest of the bass. It’s gonna be the best record ever! We got the PMA! hah

and last but not least, we are playing the Leigh Rock Festival this saturday! Its the second time the festival has been arranged, last time was in 1979 with the legendary Buzzcocks and Joy Division. Its gonna be a blast!

Have a dirty black summer!

We got 8 out of 10 possible points on LiveCity.

We’re of course talking of the newest reviews on our mini album Axes of Evil. So if you’re not from Scandinavia you’ve probably never heard of Panorama or LiveCity, but I can assure you they are serious and kind of big here in Norway.

So you better be at Elm Street saturday february 13th, or else you gonna miss out on the best party so far!

The always entertaining punk band Lucky Malice have agreed to support us with a concert too. So be there!!! It’s bass player PuppeLinn’s last gig with the band, and I have a feeling we’re gonna see some skin and worn out tights;)

We’re also planning on upgrading this web site, so if you drop in from time to time you’ll suddenly be surprised by the greatness of this new and improved web site. It’s going to be cunningly pleasant, and addictivly fresh. That’s a promise.
