This is a split with XTRAMEDIUM from Nice, FR. They're super cool kids that kick out some of the hardest jams in the French Riviera. I met them when I was on tour with CBEND and they've stayed good friends ever since. On this record it's just Giz playing guitar and Nico playing melodica, but nowadays Giz still plays guitar (but electric), Nico plays drums and our friend Ned plays bass for them. If yer into GIANT BAGS OF WEED or other Southern/Midwestern Pop-punk/Folk-punk yer gonna be totally into them. They also help promote shows at Le Volume and Tapas as a part of their collective, Les Chevaliers de la Table Basse.

BNEI ZONOT NATSIM / SIGFRIED AND ROID-RAGE SPLIT (2011):
I met Amit in Tel-Aviv when I ended up staying at his house for a long time. He and our friend Guy played a show with me at the Rogatka Veggie Bar in Tel-Aviv. We recorded some songs together at a practice space at 10 in the morning and then got stoned and ate Humus. It's what drinking Arak and smoking cheap hash for two weeks straight will do to you.
Amit plays in a band called BNEI ZONOT NATSIM who played their first show underneath some bridge on New Year's Eve in a park in North Tel-Aviv while a bunch of street punks were geeked out on hagigat (the local amphetamine of choice, think of snorting adderall but a million times worse headache the next day). They kicked ass, Amit's a good dude, so, we had to do a split. Plus!!! The drummer of BNEI ZONOT NATSIM is only 16 fucking years old!
Amit's trying to come to America. Will you please sponsor him? How can you say no to this sweet face?
