Uppsala hardcore fest

Today we got home from playing Uppsala hardcore fest. Good times! We played quite early, which at first got me worried that people wouldn't get there in time to see us. But the kids in Uppsala kept the time.
After a 7 hour drive and a few nights with very little sleep, my body felt like a sack of bricks and my head like it was filled with sand, so I was dissapointed with my performance. But when I saw the video below, I think it was all right. I guess you're your own worst critic. In the end, we all had fun and we're very happy with how everything turned out. We would love to come back to Uppsala again! The Uppsala scene is filled with kids excited about good hardcore, and this years edition of Uppsala Hardcoe Fest was a testament to that.

FUKUSHIMA

I (TB) have got a new band. We're called Fukushima. Check us out. Write us at fukushimaume@gmail.com



So, next week UX Vileheads are playing Scharinska together with Hårda Tider, and then on Saturday, we play Uppsala hardcore fest. It's going to be beyond sick. Fuck shit up!

End of one year, beginning of another etc...

A new year and new plans and expectations.

Hardcore XI seems to have been well recieved by those who've downloaded or bought it and I've seen us posted on a couple of 'best of' lists, which of course makes us all very happy. A couple of people actually put effort into ripping the record and putting it up on blogs. I can only see that as a sign of appreciation.

We will also be playing at the Uppsala hardcore fest, march 3d. We'll be playing with Agent Attitude, Hårda Tider, Headed for Disaster, Guilty, Bad Review and Vitamin X.
It should be a riot, as it often turns out to be in Uppsala.

Also, we'll be printing new t-shirts for the shows. Not sure which design yet. I'll get back to you on that...

Oh, hi there!

Soooo... It's been a while. As with all blogs, they stagnate at some point. Especially since this blog focuses on a band that hasn't been very active since the LP came out. André has been very busy with Invasionen, Marcus has been working in Umeå and rocknrolling in Canada with Regulations, Fredrik has had his ass full of studio-related stuff and doing sound on shitty bars, and I've been super busy in school (geekiest excuse by far, I know).

But! We have managed to play live outside of Umeå for the fourth and fifth time ever! A short trip to Malmö and Copenhagen. We had a blast both days and hopefully we can go play some places in the winter/spring.

Above, you have proof that we actually were outside of Umeå!

Hardcore XI is out now!

I'm very happy and proud to announce that you now can buy our debut full length album from www.nyvag.com, www.adult-crash.com or directly from us, by sending an e-mail to uxvileheads@hotmail.com!

New t-shirts!

A new batch of t-shirts arrived yesterday. They look like this. Fortunately, you don't have to look like a dick while wearing them, like the two bastards below. The sizes are kinda small, so if you're normally a medium but you've got quite broad shoulders or a righteous beer gut, I suggest you get a size large instead. 

Send an e-mail to uxvileheads atttt hotmail.com if you want one, prices are 12 euros/115 pistoler/15 USD postage included or cheaper if you buy them from us in person.


Now I'm off to the university to read about modernity. Thrilling!

Test press approved!!

The test press for the upcoming "Hardcore XI" has been approved! I have not seen nor heard it myself since I'm busy being a tourist in Malmö, Copenhagen and Berlin at the moment. But my sources in Umea tells me that it sounds meaty. Also, in the more provincial news section, we're playing live with the terrific band Terrible Feelings from Malmö and the new, never heard before, Healthy Diet from Umea ice city, in a moldy cellar in Teg on 2nd september. I have a feeling that it's going to be very rad. 

I'll be back with more updates later. Now I have to sleep so I can manage carrying around bags full of records tomorrow.

Live long and prosper
