A break...

Been a while since i have reported on anything new and it is because there isn't any news to report on. Squalora has been laying low for the past month or two and will continue to do so over the summer. With members out of town working and Matt leaving for the road with Raw Nerves for a 3 week west coast tour, we are focusing on our personal lives a bit right now. Summer is finally upon us here in Portland and camping is high on the priority list, at least for me. Our LP "hell is other people" is out courtesy of our homie Marty at Minor Bird Records. He is an awesome guy who does nothing but work and promote/release bands that he likes. Please check out Minor Bird Records online via real website and blogspot. Check out the bands and throw this guy some $'s for some premium underground punk awesomeness.

Our newest recording is by far the proudest that i have ever been with how it turned out. Greg at Earhammer Studio in Oakland did the knob twisting and is a wizard with sonics and distortion and a stand up dude to boot. Be sure to check out his band Brainoil as they have a much overdue new LP coming out via the great Oly label, 20 buck spin.

Our new 4 songs in 16 minutes are, at the moment, just sitting dormant. We are tossing around the idea of releasing this as a split LP with our soulmates in thunder, Stoneburner (members of Buried at Sea!). we are all poor and not doing much so we'll see if this comes to fruition. I am thinking of just releasing this as a cassette with silk screened covers, you know because tapes are rad, cheap and punk.

We are proud to announce that we have been invited to play in Missoula, MT on Friday, September 23rd for KBGA's annual Birthday bash. At the moment we are not sure who else is on the bill but we'll get it posted as soon as we know. Thats about it for now kiddos. Keep on fight! -tom
