Crowning ‘Survival Sickness + Friends’ 12” sold out in like 30 minutes! Fret not, for we only had 35% of the pressing! That means there are 65 copies (minus whatever sold in Cleveland last night) pingin’ around the Eastern U.S.A.. If you are a few hours out and have a means of transportation then snagging one is very much in your grasp. Catch the homies/the bafoons on tour with Niboowin now!

Speaking of tours, Hexis is coming to North America again and dropping by Victoria for their 2nd show of the tour and CanaDave is putting it on! Not only that, but we were able to secure Jisei to open the early/fast night! Music starts at 7pm sharp on September 23rd at Victoria Events Centre.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: No band today, just the entire battle set including encore from ZBR Fest 2023 between Crowning and Eyelet on May 5th at Empty Bliss. Hot. Loud. Amazing.
