After crushing and through Europe for a month with Swedish legends Victims and your new favorite band Tormented, along with our friends in Christian Mistress, we can safely say this was the best month we’ve had in memory.

There are really too many highlights to list, but thanks to Roadburn and the stagedives (I didn’t know they knew about those!), the BBC in London for having us, plus the insane show that night, the Barcelona bangers, Hamburg, Stockholm, Bielefeld, and everyone else for getting wild with us. We will be back before you know it.

For now, we are set to shred Seattle with Nasum later this month, then embark on a month-long assault of the U.S. of A. with label-mates Martyrdöd, Burning Love, and Enabler, along with multiple appearances in select cities by Poison Idea, Noothgrush, Pelican, Autopsy, and more.

You don’t wanna miss this shit.

Mexico and Japan are next, too.

We will be printing up new shirt designs of our own soon, stay tuned. We’re also updating our shipping dept. (of one) so from here on orders will be handled in a more timely fashion.

Also, we will be playing SXSW in Austin for the first time on Friday March 16, headlining the Power of the Riff showcase at the Scoot Inn. The kind folks at Thrasher, Converse, and Brooklyn Vegan helped put this together and we’re stoked they asked us to do it! This will be our only SXSW performance this year so make sure you get in. Bang on…

We’re appearing at Roadburn 2012 in Tilburg, NL. See you there.
