Busy, Busy, Busy!

Yes, according to 157 Stamford Street, its that time of the year again! but thankfully the next few weeks bring about a bit of positive buzz for Headwrecker. 

In Label news, nextweek see’s the first gig in a while for SORO. There the support for the last gig of the infamous polish hardcore band  ”ZLODZIEJE ROWEROW”, which Ironically translates as “Bike Thieve’s”. This is there last gig and it will be a pleasure to see them off with a bang. Other support comes from Hello Bastards and Swine Hotline, Its all happening at the Grosvenor Saturday 28th November 8pm.

Headwrecker also announces another addition to its label. Dublin’s ESTEL who for many years now have challenged the narrowminded Punk’s, Metalheads and anyone who generally refers to music as “umm-pah, um-pah”. They have toured constantly throughout the last ten years and have even colaberated with the likes of Mike Watt and Steve McKaye (ex-stooges, minutemen). The news album is set for spring 2010. This album will hopefully be added to the long awaited release of the Drainland Vinyl. This release will now be a debut album and will join Estel’s release in the Headwrecker catalogue to highlight Dublin’s booming underground Music scene.

In other news, Courier appreciation day is happening on Thursday the 26th November. Click HERE to see far too much information on this! Also the LCEF is already planning its christmas shindig and after the shambles that was Headwrecker’s part in the bride of frankenkat, our services along with the House of pistard’s crack team is busy at work trying to figure out the theme for the upcoming Kat, stay tuned for more info.

Yes, yes life is back to busy for Headwrecker, however the ability to persue all these tasks require’s gainful employment, so when not on the road, one can be found producing Vegan treats for various cafe’s and restaurants around London.  Everything from Sponge’s and Puddings to Biscuits and Muffins…..

…..however the Hitler Gingerbreadmen didnt go down so well…..  

Stay FIT!!!

Thank’s to everyone who came out, raced, or manned a check point, and to Vojtech who survived an evening of lying on hannibal road’s finest concrete with several pounds of cold spagetti, peas, a few inner-tubes and watery ketchup on top of him. You sir are a king among men!

Special thanks to Tour de Ville, House of Pistard, and Bicycle Union for all the prizes. Headwrecker’s donations were not met with the same desire as I just so happened to find a few of my patches (like the lovely one shown above!) lying, soaked, outside the foundry, doh! Also Special Thanks to Robin for returning Dave’s bike key that fell into his prize bag. All in all it was a great turn-out and hopefully the racing public have a taste and can eagerly look forward to the joint adventure of Headwrecker and The House of Pistard….watch this space for further details!

In Label news SORO are currently finishing the mastering of there Debut Album. The recording took place and the 1in12 club Bradford and was mixed and mastered by Bri Doom! Soro are currently looking for a third label to put this work out, anyone interested feel free to contact myself or there myspace.

With courier appreciation day around the corner the Wonderful L.C.E.F. inlisted Headwrecker’s badge making labour force to churn out a few to hand out. Catch up with Dazzaler or the rest of the crew and scrounge a few off em.

These two vinyl’s will set the benchmark for whats going on in Irish Crust at the moment. Watch out for D.R. touring with Bacchus Janurary 11th****, a headwrecker fiasco!
