ZOMG!!1! It's almost time for our annual tour of the only states that matter. Check out the shows page to see if your state made the cut (or was willing to book us, whatever). We're looking forward to seeing some old faces and maybe even a few new ones provided the van's transmission ends up having more than 5500 miles left on it. Cross your fingers for her, won't you?

To celebrate our yearly communing with our small-but-spirited fan base, I thought I'd pass along a little thing we like to call Bombs of Patriots. What started off as a piss take on both copy protection and remix albums hatched during some god-forsaken tour drive has finally been realized in all of its awesomely stupid grandeur. Skeptical? Let me put it another way: I would listen to Team Gina if that shit had bombs on it.

Rather than call out the downright pathetic update frequency for this news section, let's focus on what's new, shall we? First off, on the shows page, you will find not only a trio of upcoming local shows but also the itinerary for our fourth annual spring tour ! And you thought it wouldn't last. We've got some new 2 x 12 cabinets built and are midway through the construction of a fancy, schmancy loft so we could theoretically lay down and sleep during our inevitable trans-Montana drives (were everyone not shit-scared of my hate-fueled driving).

I've also revivified some of our older photos on a page of their own so you can ogle our chiseled, youthful visages instead of the portly, foul-smelling, geriatric quartet that now stands before you. Behold the ravages of time! I also updated the gear list since it was woefully out of date.

Five months since the last web site update? That's unpossible! Well, as you may have guessed, we made it back from tour in one piece with only some unseasonably shitty weather to complain about. We had a good time as always (gas prices be damned) and got to see some familiar faces and add a few new ones to our roster. Thanks to everyone who helped out in setting up the shows and who gave us floors to crash on - and extra thanks to the kind soul in Minot who picked up our Perkins check. That was downright decent of you.

In other news, we've got a few shows coming up including a (possibly though not probably) triumphant return to Le Voyeur in Le Olympia. We've also relocated Bismarck HQ to a new and better fortified location in greater Ballard so you'd better bring the siege towers if you want to crash practice.

Oh, you gone and done it. You gone and done visited the web site of THE 2007 DESTROYER OF THE YEAR. And, yes, that's two for two. It's a goddamn dynasty, son!

In far less exciting news, we've got a rough draft of our annual 2008 Midwest tour on our shows page. Once again, we owe a lot to the kindness of strangers and friends alike. We will be sending all of you checks for $25!*

Happy 1945, everybody! We're hip-deep in preparations for the annual spring tour - things are looking pretty good. We're hitting pretty much the same route as last year with a little more Montana and, hopefully, a little less van drama. And we should have some new songs for the jaunt; we've been combing the tombs of history's greatest leaders looking for DNA we can use in our next chartbusting hits. Stay tuned.
