Frenzal Rhomb (Aus) With The Tearaways (Aus) and Shitripper

Those bloody Australian controversial, political, hilarious, radical, punk rockers Frenzal Rhomb have finally finished their new album Smoko At the Pet Food Factory in Fort Collins Colorado, with Descendents' Bill Stevenson standing watch as producer! Bill's famous punk rock studio operates within the grounds of his large pet food factory; processing gristle, fillers and connective tissue into extruded, rolled and pressed pet chunks.

The process of living, recording and especially sleeping within such an environment was confronting for the 4 vegetarian members of Frenzal Rhomb! Smoko At the Pet Food Factory features 16 tracks, including one near the end about world famous bass player Karl Alvarez (Decendents), nestled comfortably in-between are songs about cockroaches, goths, racists, rapists, bird attacks and heaps of ciggies.

Frenzal Rhomb’s album launch tour happens in NZ this October; with support from Aussie’s melodic punks The Tearaways, and New Zealand's own heavy hitting SHITRIPPER. Smoko At the Petfood Factory is released August 22nd on Shock Records. Wellington tickets on sale Thursday 25th August from undertheradar.co.nz, Slowboat Wellington & Bodega. Auckland tickets on sale Thursday 25th August from undertheradar.co.nz & Real Groovy Auckland.
