We are pleased to announce that we'll be playing 2 of the Revelation Records 25th Anniversary shows in June!!! Hope to see some of you there!



Hello everyone! How is your 2012 so far?

Getting ready for the apocalypse or just trying make it to the weekend like the rest of us? Well if this is the last year for us all I hope it's as good as 2011. We had a great year in 2011! We rolled into our 25th year anniversary tour riding high on the success of "Based On A True Story" thanks to you all! It was an amazing tour, one where we finally got back to some places we've missed the past few years like South America and Japan! The whole vibe of the tour was different. It wasn't just us out to promote the latest record, it was a celebration. So many memorable shows: Leeds, Berlin, Antwerp, Tokyo, South America with our good friends Comeback Kid and Australia with our good friends Rise Against. What an incredible time! And of course the home town show in NYC! Which we filmed for something special in the near future. We also finally got to play for our friends in South Korea and Peru! Both amazing! In the middle of all that we took four days and went to our producer and brother-in-arms Tue Madsen's house and re-recorded some of our favorite old school SOIA tracks. The result turned into NONSTOP! We knew some of you might not want us tampering with the old songs, but I think the result speaks for itself! Judging by the reaction to it, I think you all approve. We then finished out the year with a final European run with the one and only Shai Hulud! That was a fun way to end the touring year.

Now the biggest thing to happen (for us anyway) was to find out that Mei, Pete's wife and guitar tech, is pregnant and will give birth in 2012! Now that changed alot for the band as some of our friends down under have seen. We've had to move tours around but everything is working out fine. The timing is excellent, because we are taking time off the road to write the next album! We also need to plan how and when we can get to all the places we missed last year. We won't be on the road as much this year but we will be out there so keep watching for updates.

Thank you all for making last year so unforgettable! And thank you for spreading the word about Sick Of It All! In these times where it seems only reunions and nostalgia rule for old and young fans, bands like us who keep slugging away get overlooked. Keep it up, we need all the help we can get!

Later LOU
