This is from our website, I add it here because they're that great in my eyes. I really hope others will agree!! :):

"Once it was an Attitude", the debut album by the Barroom Heroes, came out several months ago so I am seriously slacking by only writing about it now but let's just say I gave it the most important test of all - time. It has been playing in my car, non-stop, for 2 months and I have no desire to change that in any way!

The title of this 14 song CD pretty much says it all. The Barroom Heroes know attitude and have that and energy bristling in spades. Not so fast that it's annoying, but it doesn't fail to get one's blood moving hardcore, (Anyone who doesn't want to get up and mosh to this has no soul) & the gravelly vocals are no small part of what makes this band so great. The English lyrics deal with many different aspects of life, including, but not limited to, drug use ("Alice"), results of a messed up childhood ("Bad Time Story"), football ("Football"), rich snobby kids ("Rich Kid"), being part of the military ("Follow your Leader")... the subjects are quite diverse but, I must say that, for the most part, the lyrics are somewhat generic. They're decent but not really breaking new ground. But that's ok! My favorite songs, lyrically, would be "Alice" and "Bad Time Story" - I also love "Old School Criminal" as the gangster movie voice clips are great!! So, ok, lyrics are important, generally, & they have some good ones, but the music & vocals are what really keep me listening over & over & over again... Every song for me is, even after 2 months of listening, distinctive & awesome! It is definately a rarity for me to put a CD in my car & be this unwilling to take it out for another band. I'm completely addicted to "Once it was an Attidude" & highly recommend it to anyone who likes fast paced, yet melodic & severely addictive punk rock!!

I just found out about a new MySpace page run by http://www.myspace.com/ohrenkneifer & is for all fans of German music of any style (other rascist or other forms of hate bands). You can find them at http://www.myspace.com/deutschrockfreunde & although I'm completely sure how they mean for us all to show our love for German music (other than finding other friends on their page & maybe encouraging people to listen to Radio Ohrenkneifer, which is a great station, btw !!), it's a great idea & maybe they'll make a group page or something if the interest is high enough... Just thought I'd share that with you - go check it out!! I can't think of any people who could be greater fans of German music than the lot of you!!! ;)

YES!!! On September 27, 2008, Pesticide will be playing the  Handz n' Machinez in Hamburg & there will be a live stream of this show!! It starts at 8pm (20:00) in German time & I am so excited to see this that I actually got the day off for it!! I'm trying to gather friends, either for an online chat, or just so we can all said we saw it... I encourage everyone to check it out & will be sending bulletin reminders, in case you're feeling lazy or a bit forgetful ;) Go check them out, it'll be FUN!! That much I can promise you!!! :D

Ok!!! I am back from Germany & had an amazing time!!! I met so many people I'd only known online before - & saw bands I thought I'd never get to see!! Not all the band members that I met could play a show but it was enough to meet them also!! I also got to see some old friends who I had met in the past...

But I mentioned pics so here they are: http://picasaweb.google.com/mikkilanders/Germany2008 You'll just have to figure out what I did from those because writing about 2 weeks is just too much - even for me!!!

Yup, it's true... flee!! RUN!! Don't drive on the roads, I'm going & will be armed with a car!!!

I'm leaving for Germany on June 16th,
I'll be there for 2 weeks & will, hopefully, be seeing Gottkaiser
(June 20, Remscheid), Bluff
(June 21, Kamen), KellerChaos (June 25, Kiel), Pesticide (maybe) &
the pinnacle of greatness (though the others are soo great already!!) &
the real reason for my trip is *insert drum roll* the Ruhrpott
Rodeo..!!!!!! Oh YEAH!!!

I'm very excited, if anyone is going to any of these shows, let me
know!! Just had to share that!!

Oh & don't forget that whole, staying off the road thing... I'd much appreciate it, as will you!! ;)
