Gday everyone, hope all is well.
Well it's been a while since my last post, so here's a brief rundown on what's been happening at Berzerker headquarters.
We've all been busy getting ready for the mighty US / CANADA Obituary Tour and I hope all you crazy fukers over there are ready to go fuking mental with us when we hit the stage!! We really can't fukin wait and it's only 1 week til we leave! It's going to be awesome to catch up with our diehard American fans. You guys have been really loyal to us and we can't wait to return the favour with some 320bpm death grind.
We just played 2 shows in our home towns, Brisbane and Gold Coast, as a bit of warm up and the setlist was so fuking relentless. Don't expect any breaks from the chaos when we hit the States, we're cramming in as much blast as possible into our short sets so get ready to smash each other for 30-45mins without one single breath!!
We're also going to have new merch with us so get it while you can and we might even be able to come back sometime!!! Luke and I have been working some stuff up and it'll look something like this.... The back of the 'shotgun' t-shirt was done by our legendary French artist Adrien. Check out more of his work at www.myspace.com/aslumber and www.myspace.com/theprocessus
If anyone ever wants to submit artwork that you think would make for a good Berzerker design, send it through and it may just become our next shirt or hoodie etc..
In other news:
Luke has been staying in my hometown causing trouble and generally just running a muck aha, hanging out with MMA fighters, penthouse pets, getting dragged along to all the local parties, recording riffs and refining his photography skills.
His photos are fukin awesome, and I managed to get dragged along to a few shoots as special assistant aha.
Here's a few samples....
Here's Tim getting choked by our mate and MMA fighter Jim York ahah, 2 of the biggest bastards I know wrestling. Classic.
Check out some of Jim's fights on youtube. You don't fuk with this guy.
I also managed to squeeze in some wall art for my mate's new BMX store.

The new album is coming along really well and is going to be another step forward for the band and is looking like it's going to be the most brutal album yet. We're starting to look at our options for recording, mixing and mastering the album so stay tuned for more info.
I'm going back to getting ready for tour.
Look forward to seeing you all in the pit soon! Don't be a fukin pussy!
Let the insanity begin....

Gday everyone, hope all is well. Firstly, I'd like to thank everyone who has shown their support for our fuked up Tatu song and filmclip. Ahha it's good to see a lot of you see the irony and humour in it and it's also good to see there are still some diehards out there willing to give us shit for some of the stupid shit we do! Keep it coming! I'm sure there'll be more opportunities in the near future. No one is safe. And don't worry, playing the most brutal live set we can will always be our first priority as a band. Just so you know this isn't the band's blog, it's called Damo's Diarrhoea because it's just that.. my space to talk shit about whatever I feel like and to give our fans something else to read about The Berzerker rather than just purely band related info. If you couldn't give a fuk, just wait for the other blogs to be posted. And thanks to those who gave me some good feedback on the new shirt design ideas. We will have new merch coming out soon! We are playing a festival in Toddy's and my old home town Brisbane in a few weeks. There's a whole lot of different bands playing so if you can get there, make sure you fukin do!! (PS. IT'S SPELT BERZERKER!!!) Writing for the new album is going fuking insane! As Im typing Luke just called spitting and screaming that he has written some more drums and vocals to what he's calling the most brutal (and possibly fastest?) Berzerker yet. No shit. In other news, my hometown nearly got blown away by a cyclone recently. It was fukin intense. If you like your car, don't park it near the ocean when there's a fukin cyclone above you and 30 foot surf beside you!! Fool. I've had a lot of people ask me how Damnation Festival was last November in the UK so here's a little taste of what went down. Legendary Berzerker bassist Sam Bean joined us for the show on 2nd guitar and helped destroy some more eardrums. The clip sounds like shit but you get the idea.... I think there are more online Backstage got a bit wild later and the place ended up looking like a fukin bomb went off. And of course Carcass then headlined and the entire place went off. -2 degress outside +30 inside! Here's a funny youtube clip. This is some crazy fukin shit what these guys do. If you have any or know of any funny or just plain fukin crazy Berzerker clips let us know! We love this shit. Anyway, I've had enough of this computer. We all can't wait for the US / Canada tour!! You better be fukin ready for some carnage!! Til next time... Practice modes. Practice what you preach. Don't fuk with cyclones! And of course BUY OUR ALBUM!!!! Thanks for the support, Damo BZKR

The Berzerker – Courting Controversy with Underage Lesbian Anthem & Clip
The Berzerker, Australian based industrial death metal band, internationally renowned as one of the most brutal extreme metal bands performing today, are no strangers to controversy.
With five albums of extreme brutality, nightmarish lyrics, and worldwide tours chequered by audience riots; they have won themselves no shortage of mainstream protestors and diehard metal fans.
However this latest move has the potential not only to further inflame their detractors, but potentially to alienate metal audiences likewise. The Berzerker have released a video clip of them performing a cover song.
A pop song.
Nobody could forget the Russian pop sensation, T.A.T.U.; with their high pitched screeching on #1 track “All The Things She Said” – a ridiculously catchy song whose popularity was largely due to their status as underage lesbians and the film clip of the two girls kissing in school uniform in the rain.
Yes, The Berzerker, extreme metal band, have covered “All The Things She Said”, underage lesbian anthem. And of course the accompanying film clip had to up the ante on the original, featuring two of Australia’s best known fetish models getting raunchy and inspiring two schoolgirl viewers to explore their own sexuality, and each other, in their child-like bedroom.
The film clip has been on YouTube for only a matter of hours and has already not only had a record number of views and comments declaring it to be “the greatest film clip in the world ever”, with fans demanding the track be released as a single for sale; but has also received a record number of complaints, with the clip, despite having no nudity nor violence, being restricted to 18+ status.
Stay tuned for the next instalment in what is likely to be an ongoing controversy, and see the clip now before further complaints see it removed altogether!

Gday you mad mothafukers,
I hope everyone is well and listening to extreme metal,
By now some of you must be wandering what the fuk is going on with The Berzerker!?? Pics of girls in underwear, The Berzerker surfing and skateboarding?? Me looking like Bruce Willis (I'll never forget that you bastards!) Isn't this one of the world's most extreme death metal bands?? Ahaahaa
Well basically we don't give a fuk! and we do what we want. The band was behind masks for a long time and now we want to let you guys know who is actually behind all of this insanity. We like to know our fans and we want you to know us. And don't worry we are still going to be speeding up the click to Noone Wins every fukin time we destroy it live, just because we can. Pretty soon it will be at 450bpm. Ahaha Yes, we like hot chicks in underwear. Plus we have a lot of female fans who like to see girls getting brutal with us. (Can't blame em, have you seen new guitarist Tim Aldridge, 6'6 of pure fuking viking man metal!) Chicks want him, dudes want to be him.
 Brutal As Fuk.

This is the life...
Yes, we also do other things outside of the band. This band takes up most of lives so when we do actually stop creating the most insane music our twisted minds allow for, we go destroy ourselves any way we can! 
Destruction.
 I just like this photo. Metal Hall.
We will also have a new film clip coming out soon to a 'new' song! It's going to be classic! You just fukin wait!! Nothing can prepare you for this shit ahahaha.
I've also been working on some new shirt designs. Who likes this? Want one? Yeh you fuking do!! Let me know what you think. Comment it.

I haven't slept much lately, Todd and I flew to Berzerker headquarters 2 days ago for an all nighter and we've been going hard since. I've also moved out of my place which was a fuking nightmare! I'm going to write the most brutal death grind song inspired by moving, it'll be angrier than Luke was when we blew the PA at Brutal Assault last year aha, and that's angry. Anyone there will know what I mean. 
Luke about to stage dive after we blew the PA and he nearly killed someone with anger.
 It eventually got going again.
Anyway I'm going back to do some work so I can afford the next US tour. It's going to be soo fuking mad and we are going to break as much shit as possible, including ourselves.
Listen to The Senseless. Don't cheat. Quad pick it. Don't jump in the fire.. unless you're willing to fight! or just like to be burnt.
Til next time,
BUY OUR ALBUM!!! SUPPORT AUSSIE DEATH METAL.

Damo

Right.. time we started updating you crazy fucks on what we do when were dont destroying your eardrums... More to come.. Over to Damo "Berzerker Bass" Palmer In between writing the fastest fuking riffs my wrist can handle, working my day job, Berzerker artwork, Berzerker posters, Berzerker tours, Berzerker photo shoots, Berzerker, Berzerker fuking dreams and everything else that comes with playing in this fuking twisted band... this is what else I have been up to lately: Yes I live near the beach and surf whenever I have the chance, and it's been fuking pumping all last month! I manged to score a few good ones. Check the shots. Think surfing's gay? Try copping one these waves on the head and see how you feel. Just like 1000 Berzerker shows compressed into one big fuking kick to the head!! Just ask Luke after I took him, ahaha classic! This place dislocated my shoulder a couple of years ago after I was thrown about 4 metres into basically dry sand and nearly drowned. No shit. Surf went shit so we hit the dirty dog bowl. Anyone keen on a Berzerker skate deck? Yeh you fuking are!! Pussy. I've also been doing a bit more artwork lately and updating my blog so go check it out www.damocrisis.blogspot.com .. There's a bit of 3D and graphic work on there too to help me score some more work so we can afford to go on more tours!! Anyway I'm going back to writing some riffs before I punch this fuking screen in. It's a big weekend coming up so I'm sure something fuked up will happen so I'll let yas all know next week... Watch Zeitgeist. Don't eat shark. Don't shit where you eat. Til then BUY OUR ALBUM!! SUPPORT AUSSIE GRIND. Damo

 The Berzerker Guitarist Tim Aldridge is in recovery. Tim has this to say. Firstly thanks for the overwhelming support displayed by you die hard fuckers. I really appreciate it all. After a few days of hospital rest I has returned home and and im well on the way to recovery. I suffered a ruptured stomach ulcer and loss of blood. We were all very lucky this did not occur a few hrs later as we would of been on a 5hr flight to New Zealand, and this would of been truly horrific. I have been resting comfortably at home and have been playing guitar to keen my sanity for past few days. I would like to thank the doctors at William Angliss Hospital for there wonderful care. After a few weeks rest I am expected to make a full recovery and will commence writing new material soon. Once again I would like to apologies to the New Zealand fans that we had to cancel the tour. We will endeavor to reschedule the tour for later in the year.”

Luke Kenny had this to say. “at 4am(EST) this morning our guitarist Tim Aldridge was rushed to hospital after throwing up more then a pint of blood, with blood pooling in his stomach he was operated on at 8am(EST) we are now waiting patiently to hear how the operation went. After frantic calls at 5am(EST) to various guitarist’s looking for some one to fill in we have been forced to pull the New Zealand tour. The band is deeply saddened by this event. More information will be released as we have it. The Amenta will be continuing on without us
