apart from the crowd

first off, we (by we i mean me) got interviewed in GET WISE fanzine. we chatted about a few things, including ahmad being an amazing frontman, and our mutual love of minneapolis band BLIND APPROACH. the cover of the zine gloriously tributes the incredible artwork of their EP New Age, with this new edition drawn up by one half of the team behind the zine, ruby. mad props!

last show was quite a time. remember that show? it was already like two weeks ago, so nobody even gives a shit anymore, but i've still got chills from seeing A2 himself rip "Incarnate 365." that was obviously a trip but later in the set, final agony played a song that straight up sounded like the world was ending. it was so fucking demonic i felt the urge to drag my ass to church that sunday to purge myself of whatever evil spirit might have possessed me by exposure. retain and division of mind were heavy like sumo wrestlers as usual. shoutout to the lil dude who moshed his friend so hard i got domino'd into spilling my drink all over the floor. emergency sipping saved some of it but alas...

our set went pretty sweet. we covered "telltale" by raw deal, and i always love a cover that starts so immediately that there is a split second right before everyone comes up to sing along. it's like the quiet before the big bang. we opened up with a new track that'll be on a slab o wax soon enough.

tick tock on the clock, dj turn my speakers up
tonight, ima cry, cuz i play in reason why

we also made a bunch more tapes for the show. we sold two. so we've got a bunch more. if you wanna order one, hit us up. first round was on green, this one on yellow. i was tripping out recently because it turns out this tape is up on discogs. included was the exact count of the last run of tapes (52), and our full government names written out on the band profile. i think they're gone now but i was tripping out because some of my own bandmates don't even know my last name. maybe next release will include our social security numbers and parents' addresses.

if you want the tape, you wanna distro the tape, or you wanna book is in your city (flights on you), you can hit us up at REASONWHY202@GMAIL.COM

SEE YOU AT RHIZOME, NOVEMBER 12 WITH ALIENATOR AND LAUGHING CORPSE (DA BEST BAND IN DC!)

PEACE OUT WORLD!
