Have you heard about this thing named corona virus? Well guess what! Due to this virus we have to postpone this party. We have to take care of our beloved grannies, grandaddies, mommies, daddies, and all the ones with weaker immune systems. We have to make sure we don’t get infected so that we don’t infect them, and we have to make sure we don’t get infected and hospitalized so there’ll be enough space at the medical facilities for them if they do get infected. Therefore, sadly, we have to postpone this party. Don’t worry about the party. It’s not cancelled. We’ll pick another date, right after this corona thing has worn off a bit. It’ll be great, like make-up-sex!

Also we are forced to move up the pre-orders to Monday March 23.

Remember that curly haired blonde that played bass like a cave woman in Pig Frenzy? Well, her name is Amber and she’s a string slinger in Forbidden Wizards too. She’s in it with her bro Ross on bass and Tom on drums. Altogether they’re a bunch with a Rotterdam attitude; no bullshittin’, just roll up those damn sleeves and get dirty. They don’t like to boast about whom they shared stages with or what important festivals they played, therefore their bio is made up of these three words: “We make punk.”

[orginal message] Unfortunate news came to us. There are copies around of the new 7″ by Rats On Rafts that have off-centre holes making the single unplayable. F!%^! We are very sorry to hear this.

We will be checking our stock in the next couple of days to estimate how many misprints we have and work out a sollution ASAP. If you have placed an order online you have already received an e-mail from us.

In case you got a copy at the presentation last Saturday at Left Of The Dial, please do contact us. Bad or good copy. If you know anyone who might have gotten a copy last night, please ask them to get in touch with us.

Our apologies for the inconvenience!

Listen up! We’ve got a release coming up, and it’s one of the finest things The Netherlands has got to offer. RATS ON RAFTS! This quartet hailing from our home town Rotterdam has crafted another mental 45 that has a dark-edged post-punk punch and captures the madness of Hazlewood’s “Some Velvet Morning”.

“Where Is My Dream? / Meggy” by Rats On Rafts will be available on 7″ from October 19, and will be presented at Rotterdam showcase festival Left Of The Dial on the same date.

Same deal as before, 300 numbered copies only. Pre-order starts on October 7 via our website.

Pre-order starts: Monday September 2nd.
Release date: Friday September 13th.
