SYMPATHY FOR THE REBELS

CULTURE ABUSE has just released our debut ep "THE DAY DREAMS OF NOTHING". available only in cassette form, the 6 song party soundtrack comes with the first culture abuse zine! 8.5" x 5.5", 28 pages, printed back and white, with original artwork and photography by the dudes in the band. the zine is basically free with the purchase of the cassette which is only $5 in the culture abuse store. you can also listen to the entire ep over at our bandcamp page. the cover for THE DAY DREAMS OF NOTHING was shot by me, in addition to the layout design. the cassette is a handmade gatefold cover, printed full color, folded and glued by us. additional photography inside the cassette by juan gabe. a very classic and original release that we're keeping limited to 50. check out some shots of the zine below!

SPREAD APART

CULTURE ABUSE has made our first shirts. if you came to our first show at bottom of the hill back in june, then you had the opportunity to grab one of the first runs of these. the logo was transferred to the various black shirts using bleach and a stencil. each shirt was different, and unique in it's own right. we've been working on more, and we may have some available to purchase soon. check out the shirts below, photos by david kelling. 

OVERDOSE ME

check out the CULTURE ABUSE site we have up. mostly just photos and upcoming show info. but it's worth it to take a look at what we do to warm up before we play shows. photo above by juan gabe.

VIBE KINGDOM

i designed this flyer for the next CULTURE ABUSE show that's happening in september at submission in san francisco. it's our buddies from know secrets (members of static thought & punch) ep release show. we're also playing with the videos (members of ceremony & gather) & holy fever (members of suicide file & give up the ghost). it's gonna be a sweet party. and also, the first 30 people who pay to get into the show will receive a free silk screen poster for the show! so tight!

OVERDOSE

back in april, me and a few buddies began writing some songs together. those buddies being the almighty ian anderson (harsh vibes art, dead to me, strike anywhere), david kelling (all teeth fame) & pretty tony lasalle (strike to survive). since then, we've put together a handful of songs that we're super hyped on and recruited a bassist that can only go by the name of shambles. we're called CULTURE ABUSE and we're playing our first show this friday at bottom of the hill in san francisco, and we're playing alongside creative adult & the new trust. this show is also to celebrate the release of the new trust's new record "keep dreaming". i'm super stoked for everyone to hear us and we're gonna have a grip of handmade merch available. we're recording on saturday with our friend scott up in santa rosa. check out http://party-dudes.com for any updates on culture abuse. and also check out the flyer i designed (below) for our first show this friday.
