CHEERFUL POETRY OF THE COSMOS/BEST SEXY BOYS EVER - WHT FNG

White Fang, our boys with the noise, have been doing all kinds of shit lately.

The last show they did was with Argumentix at the Clatter House, which is where our friends from the death metal band Scar of the Archetype live along with Joel who does sound down at the Satyricon. No joke, Joel knows what he's doing. I heard he did such a good job at the Wolf Eyes show the other day that somebody told him he must really care about Wolf Eyes. Which is funny and really rad too. But anyway the show was totally gnarly. Jimi, our lead drummer, is in Mexico near Guadalajara in a town called Atango to celebrate his grandparents' 50th anniversary, so we had our good body-buddy Adam Forkner of White Rainbow fortune fill in and he totally nailed it.

The kids went nuts and we were all really fucked up. SUCCESS!

Word on the street is that the White Fang's Marriage Records debut entitled Pure Evil should be in the office any day now, maybe a week or so?

The shit sounds great I guess, as it was mastered by, who else? Adam Forkner. Get ready to cream your jeans as your world gets rocked.

More word on the split 7" with the Righteous & Harmonious Fists! I went down to Marriage and saw the art for it, designed by none other than Maria Joan Dixon who did the fucking shit for the Valet Naked Acid record. Ours is got like spirit soldiers coming out of the sky as a cloud and shit. It's fucking rad. Those should be out soon too. Homeboys over at Tender Loving Empire are going to do the packaging, while papa Steve Schroeder over at States Rights Records will be doing the DVD that comes with it. Should be a sick little package!

Some deeper word on the street is that a badass little label called Now Hereness is putting out a new Fang 7" entitled But the Princess is in Another Castle that will contain the new banger jam "Eat My Shred" as well as B-side thats title is unconfirmed. Who knows when that shit will be ready... end of summer maybe? Sooner? Later?

Speaking of States Rights Records, word on the street is that they are making an Arigato pack for a 7" part of a release for the Pregnancy Series or something and the Fang is going to do one with a 7" called Mythology and a long EP-CD called Realer Godz or Cheerful Poetry or something. That's going to be rad. We were going to record over at Jackie-O's space or something with Adam, but Jimbo went to Mexico so we'll have to wait until after tour.

Even deeper talk of a split 7" with ...worms for maybe Marriage?

Also our tour with Rob Walmart and White Rainbow starts on July 10th or 11th or something and we'll be going down through California, which is a place I've never been before. Along the way we'll get to meet the Starving Weirdos and go swimming and play with Lucky Dragons at the Smell and all kind of stuff. Check the White Fang space (www.myspace.com/whtfng) to see our tour dates and shit.

So much to think about.

Hit me back later.

Ummm FALSE! This information that you've provided regarding Rad Summer's supply is false. I went there yesterday and they had no knowledge of anything Gnar, or White for that matter.
