Feb 8th - Whanganui: Arc Theatre - ALL AGES gig -
With support from Mr Sterile Assembly & Night Terrors


Two piece DIY Punk/Sludge unit DEAD are touring in support of their debut LP – THUNDAAAAAH!

It’s a great album and you should buy it.

Their U.S tour with Unstoppable Death Machines saw them play 30 dates right across the country including shows with Hammerhead, Vaz, Gay Witch Abortion, Hex Machine, Thrones and label mates Big Business, White Shit, Pygmy Shrews and Japanther. All those bands were great but DEAD are better.

In South East Asia they trained, planed and bussed between Malaysia, Singapore, Java and Philippines including a bill with seminal punk band Carburetor Dung. In Australia they have run up and down the east coast more times than one cares to count, visited places few bands of their ilk ever play, supported Earthless (USA), Cough (USA), Eagle Twin (USA), Monarch (France), Hard Ons and more and gotten very loud and very sweaty in living rooms, record stores, galleries and pubs along the way. All this in less than a year of existence!

In short; DEAD don’t fuck around.

They print their own merch on non sweat-shop and recycled garments, tour relentlessly and show no signs of slowing down. A DEAD show is a full body experience. It is not for everyone but can you risk not finding out?

DEAD will play the 6th Camp A Low Hum music festival as well as a string of other North Island dates (see below).

From their MySpace: "The Assembly presents its anarchic blend of politics and humor with its ear intent on a theatrical bent."
