FUCKIN’ ROUNDEYE.

Genjing Records’ punk rock revolution/revelation will lay waste to our fine city FOR TWO SHOWS! Think the Dickies mixed with the Fall, with some doo-wop, James Chance’s psychotic saxcapades and SST’s best moments thrown into the mix.

Holy fuck I’m excited. MY SOUL IS BURNING!!!

“Salutations friends, In this glorious month of November, amidst all your excitement of the upcoming holidays, the yuletide spirit, the offering of thanks, saying sayanora to the year - WHATEVER it may be, I wanted to make sure that we all took but a moment beforehand and turn our heads to charity. One charity in particular. The HK Cancer fund. Many fine gentlemen have gone head

to head with the beast that is prostate cancer and now I ask you to join me in saluting these brothers and help me raise some dollars and awareness about this fight. In turn I shall reward the fragrant harbour nation, with a spectacular show. A minifest if you will. There will be dancing. There will be singing and by god will there be some rocking. Spread the good word, the Magical Megashow hath come to town!!!” –M.Mustachio

HK Death Metallers Cadaver do a good job of keeping their youtube channel packed full of studio vids, which I am always a fan of. These days we can follow bands through the entire writing and recording process online, and I for one think that can only be a good thing. Plus I just like the sound of this song. So I’m sharing it.

The Priceless Boat taking their hardcore to the streets. It’s hard not to be happy when watching the people of Hong Kong trying to figure out what they are supposed to make of this.
