Grymeworks News - Dec 2007

6th December 2007
Hi All... We'll, a lot has been going on at Grymeworks so here's the run down:

Poisonous Youth
Grymeworks is STOKED to announce that Poisonous Youth (Orakle & Prolifik) have recently joined the Grymeworks crew with their debut album to be released in 2008. In the meantime, go check their myspace. We're really looking forward to working with these boys and truly believe they are the dopest cats to come out of Christchurch in a long time. Keep your ear to the ground and your eye on the blog - we'll have a free mixtape available for download soon!

Grymeworks Merchandise - Give the Gift of Gryme this Christmas
We're also very pleased that we now have all of our Grymeworks merchandise available for sale. We have Tall Tees, Hoodies, Long Sleeve Tees, Girl's tees and Girl's hoods. You can find all the information/prices/sizing on our blog.

Cancer
A washed up male model/folk singer, an agoraphobic weed head and a smut peddling alcoholic sound more suited to group therapy than a recording studio. But as the saying goes: opposites attract, you can't judge a book by its cover and sometimes a bunch of useless *@!%'s make some good music. The group's called Cancer and their goal, in the words of Louie Knuxx, is to "make the most depressing album ever". The aforementioned failed male model is Lubin McFien, lead singer in Auckland country band 'The Vietnam War' who brings his fading good looks to what is not the prettiest bunch of lads.

Rounding out the group is Christchurch emcee Jay Roacher, who doesn't like to leave his house let alone the South Island. So far they've taken some nice photos but word is there'll be an album early next year. Since the entire band are smokers at the very least it will be worth getting for ironies sake.

The boys are working hard on writing and recording the Cancer album and you can here some of their new material here and also on the new Breakinwreck Wordz compilation which is available for purchase here:
