We made a long voyage across the Pacific for a month of great food, great people and amazing shows in Japan and Southeast Asia. 'This Comp Kills Fascists' hit streets a couple weeks ago. "So whats next with shows, touring and releases? Shows: We have a couple more summer shows lined up this upcoming weekend on Aug. 1st in Philly and Aug. 2nd in DC with Leftover Crack, be sure to check those out. Also, we recently lined-up a show in Baltimore on September 6 at Sonar with Impaled, Phobia, Malignancy, Illogicist, Maruta and Marrow. "Touring: Some talks about Europe this upcoming winter? We'll see. "Releases: A live recording from our Japanese tour will be out on Power It Up Records this winter. We're currently working hard on new songs for our sophomore full-length record. Dates to record for the new record will be this upcoming fall/winter. We are currently in talks with Willowtip Records about taking the new record under their wing. Our good friends at Six Weeks Records will most likely be releasing the LP format of this record. More solid info coming in the next few weeks."
