The Now-Denial

tractor-pulling death-machine, a pitbull and a bottle of champagne with strawberries.out of the ashes of HYBRIS, ENFOLD, HOCUS and DURANGO95 we started our little plan to conquer the world in late 2000. first planned as a project of four longtime friends, we noticed quickly that we got along very good and shared the love for harsh, pissed off hardcorepunk. after a couple of months we got hans on second guitar and started playing shows. the first recording was a split 7" with our dear friends SEEIN' RED on tomtetummetott, the enterprise of our singer and lyric-mastermind søren.due to time problems resulting from the manymany shows we played, hans quit, but not without recording the first longplayer "truth is on fire" with us. it came out in fall 2002 on scorchedearthpolicy / flowerviolence and damaged.we continued as a four-piece, spreading our mixture of live entertainment, political agenda and a big fuck you all around germany, holland, belgium and austria. the first bigger tour brought us to france and spain with oakland's ARTIMUS PYLE. right before this tour we released the second split 7" for the imprisoned genua protesters with our homies HIGHSCORE on ttt and repulsive force (japan). late 2003 we toured greece, macedonia, bosnia and croatia with DURANGO95 and started to prepare for the second full length afterwards. we did a lot of shows and a lot of short trips with e.g. ZEROID or STRIKE ANYWHERE in 2004 which slowed down the song writing process."viva viva threatening" came out in fall 2004 on sabotage rec. and scorched earrth policy. in fall of 2004 we got robin of SURF NAZIS MUST DIE on second guitar, played an england / scotland tour in may 2005 and toured with DOOMTOWN in late 2005. the "deutschland in decline" compilation 7" came out on heartfirst rec.next thing coming was our vinyl-only or unreleased song cd on too circle records from japan and sabotage. it carries 19 songs from our 7inches, album outtakes and compilation songs plus live video footage. it came out in summer 2006. in june 2007 we recorded the latest longplayer "mundane lullabye" at the tonmeisterei in oldenburg with our friends role and henner which came out in fall 2007 on sabotage / sounds of subterrania.

after touring our asses off with that record, we had some troubles in the band and our japan-tour in summer 2008 should have been our last tour with ash on guitar. he left the band, luckily without too many hard feelings. jan, formerly in duesenjaeger, joined the band on guitar.

too sweet to be punk, too punk to be hardcore, too hardcore to be crust, too cynical to be anything at all
