YOUR HUMBLE SPAMMER SPEAKS...

Recently Company Fuck hailed the necrowizard and performed for an 
exibition opening of French publishing outfit Le Dernier Cri in Graz, 
Austria. LDC create the most excessive, demented, and fantastic artwork 
available on paper (and sometimes plastic). Coming very soon on LDC will 
be a CD/book collaboration between Company Fuck, Sgure, and $atanik Mike 
Go Home. The music sounds like a pack of hungry monkeys let loose in a 
karaoke bar. Some preview material in the highlights clip here:

Possible Australian tour! For the digital noisecore team of - 
Chlorgeschecht (Germany), Sgure (France) and Company Fuck 
(Austria/Australia). To coincide with the ThisIsNotArt/Electrofringe 
festival in September/October. We still need a lot more support to make 
it happen. Please get in touch if you would like to see this terrifying 
trio in your town.

AUSTRALIAN EVENTS

Brisbane - Audiopollen #50
... is happening right now! Featuring Half/theorists Sally Golding, Joe 
Musgrove, Ross Manning, and many more. Congratulations on a hugely 
successful series! http://www.audiopollen.org

Melbourne - International Biennale of Exploratory Music
Great new festival! Press release states: "MIBEM is a six-day 
exploration of new musical possibilities taking place in various 
Melbourne music venues from the Iwaki Auditorium to The Tote, from March 
28th to April 2nd 2008. Curated by noted local artists/composers, 
Anthony Pateras and Robin Fox, the Biennale will bring over 50 
international and Australian musicians from the cutting and far edges of 
contemporary music together for a series of inspired and 
boundary-expanding sonic explorations." Looks like most of the usual 
suspects from the Aus improv scene, however there are some notable 
inclusions - Valerio Tricoli (Italy) totally brutal improvised 
electronics; Jérôme Noetinger (France) from Metamkine; and old time 
destroyers Menstruation Sisters and Passenger of Shit. http://www.mibem.net

Newcastle - Electrofringe call for proposals
Electrofringe 2008 is now calling for proposals for this year's festival 
from artists, media makers, curators, researchers, playful 
experimenters, enthusiasts, writers and producers.

Australia - Breakcore
"Yes it is vacuous" http://www.breakcore.com.au

BUSINESS AS USUAL...

The newest Passenger of Shit CD (Passenger of Shit 7) now available on 
Half/theory. He says it's 25 tracks of brutal killcore, but it's 
probably more trendy wanking. I recommend the fuck out of it. Undecisive 
God has a new release all made with broken guitar and broken turntable. 
Also check out some updates from New Zealand's PseudoArcana amd CLaudia 
labels, and Japan's Black Petal.
