News Letter v63.0
04.15.12
Hello to All,
2012 is off to a flying start with releases from Stiff Valentine, Stromkern, Rein[Forced] already in stores and Dead on TV and Lowe releases ready to go. The spring/summer live schedule is heating up with upcoming shows from Dead on TV, The Gothsicles, Klutae and Rein[Forced] and more. Here’s the news for April.
Don’t forget, for up to the minute information, be sure to check out the WTII Records website at www.wtIIrecords.com or follow us on twitter www.twitter.com/wtIIrecords.
WTII WELCOMES DEAD ON TV…
Formed in 2009, Dead on TV has stroked audiences all over the Midwest with their brand of electro-punk narcissism which, coupled with the smash and grab disruption of ADHD lead singer Dan Evans, the brutal machine-like ineptness of drummer Vince Mcaley and a complete and heinous disregard for the life and welfare of the guitar player Xmas Smits has resulted in some of the most epically offensive shows ever removed from youtube for violation of community standards.
Dead on TV will make their WTII Records debut with the release of Fuck You, I’m Famous on April 24th. Fuck You, I’m Famous is a fast and furious punk infused, guitar driven 5 track EP complete with witty sarcastic lyrics reminiscent of the UK punk scene of the late 70’s. Tracks like ‘Dead on TV’ and “Fuck You, I’m Famous” will solidify the bands place in the current punk scene and provide a glimpse of what lie ahead for this strong up and comer
Dead on TV stole the show at the WTII 10th anniversary show last June and we are excited to be the ones to unleash this trio to the masses.
