I wish I could sing I wish I would look good but my voice sounds ugly face looks damaged too I wish i didn't have to waste away my life at these dead end jobs with the boring schmucks I'd rather stay, I'd rather play the same old song that you've heard yesterday played by other band, oh yeah! so boring, so sorry, but don't worry! I'll soon be gone! but I am who I am and I don't give a damn if you don't like my band or me! I'm not here for the fame I'm not here for the money I'm not here to change the world nor to change myself I am here for the fun I am here for the sound from the underground if there wasn't this sound I would probably be gone or dead but I've got this guitar and i can go really far oh yeah! there is you and there is me the whole extended family in every town, every city, every country I can go anywhere and have a place to play and rock your socks off!

about

"Attention rave punx, attention bike punx, whether you know it or not this is the album you've been waiting years for! Formerly of Riga Latvia's acclaimed Beyond The Borders, from the rascal who's been creating raved out punk covers at a squatted farm in rural France as MOFX, from the back of the Barcelona food stamp line or whatever LoC would say, it's Staz with his first vinyl record ever!
I cannot tell you how many times over the past couple years I've blasted these songs at home and at parties over here in Cincinnati, waiting to officially unleash it into the public, using it as my antidote to the depression that kept me from drawing its cover art (sorry Staz) ...as someone who grew up on Rancid and Offspring in the 90's, while developing an obsessive interest in gabber, breakcore, and the other most punk forms of electronic noize, this is the ultimate union of some otherwise too often segregated driving inspirations of my youth. It's time for older hedz like myself to celebrate, and time for the next generation to hear this and start their own bands!
Hearing 'Punk Rock Manifesto' on our last tour together right before covid happened, and songs like 'All My Friends' written during that first pandemic year, these are the kind of new songs you just know are instant classics. Operation Ivy for the future punk age! Anthems of anarchist life without just barking tired politics! True stories from someone I'm proud to call my friend, you've seriously got to hear this record."
~ Robert Imhuman, March '23
