21/01/12 We have news to tell! By end of March we have a new record to release!! SNATCH!057 - The GOLDEN BOYS new album entitled "Dirty Fingernails" will be a blast of their great songwriting and their soulish garage folk. Mike Vasquez from SWEATBOX Studio catched a lot of their live experience on tape. We get a special mix for that release. Rough and loud. We´re psyched! Isn´t that a reason to to fly to SXSW just to see them hopefully five times singing their new hits like "We´re Young", "Party Jesus" or "Older than you". !!? We´re there. Hopefully soon in Europe again.

21/01/12 The KIDNAPPERS got invited to SXSW 2012 but they play Italy! Check the dates here.

20/01/12 The MOJOMATICS and the MOVIE STAR JUNKIES both will release their upcoming albums on the new OUTSIDE INSIDE RECORDS LABEL. The MOJOMATICS will be entitled "You Are The Reason Of My Troubles" and will be on vinyl with a bonus CD! We heard a bunhc of songs and they are incredible! We can´t wait for that album! Check out that great new label here.

19/01/12 There are new releases by the VERMILLION SANDS, another limited 7" on that great Shit Music fr Shit People who will bring us also a full length of Vernon Sélavy. That vinyl is limited and from Sardegna, so you will get hard to get if you decide 2015 to finally better get it.

18/01/12 Hi folks! Yes, w´re still alive and running. Is record business a fly-ny-night collaboration? We doubt that. So take it easy when there isn´t a release every month. We´re looking for outstanding recordings, and they´re rare and there will be more catches by 2012. But December brought a nice stream of fgood bands in Berlin. We had the DWARVES, TOTAL CONTROL, TERRIBLE FEELINGS, BARE WIRES, MARK SULTAN, DIÄT! Fun times. Plus, our italian friends of the the MOJOMATICS and MOVIE STAR JUNKIES been in town and played some Halloween & Kraut-Fest.

30/12/10 this went via email but here again: Dear bookers & friends,thanks again for having the GOLDEN BOYS! You made it happen!! They made it thru the whole tour, they played all shows which is nearly unbelievable with all the snow. Tons of other bands cancelled all over the place. The played killer shows, double sets, exceed our high expectations and many of you got back with overwhelming feedback. Here and there more people been expected but with icy streets it was quite a hassle for everyone to travel around. It worked out in the end and the band want to thank each of you for all the efforts. The GOLDEN BOYS want to come back maybe late autumn 2011, which would be fantastic. We´ll see what time will bring. So we have upcoming tours in 2011 of WHEELS ON FIRE and GOLDEN BOYS on the US-Side and we sure see tours of the MOJOMATICS; VERMILLION SANDS and KIDNAPPERS.
