SET 2: UÅHC - Bands that has six degrees of separation to our host

EXIL - Mercenary (Adult Crash)

LEPER - Suckling Pigs (Kink)

THE VICIOUS - Sanity (Ny Vag / Cage Match Federation / Feral Ward / Missing Link)

WARCHILD - Battlefield Trauma (Black Water / D-Takt ja Råpunk)

Torbjorn mentioned that he is looking for a copy of the "Right Now! - The World Needs A Clear Head" ep by Porcelain Forehead. If you have a copy that you are willing to part with get in touch with us at the show and we will put you in touch with him. For those living in Montreal, some Leper EP's are available at Disque Sonique and Le Nouveau Soundcentral.
