25/02/04 - ya gads. It's been a while since
I updated this page. Since the full Bait site went up I've left
all that to Snapa, I'm just a lazy good fer nuthin'. You better
believe it.
So we've been working
on the Bait album, it should have all been long done and dusted
by now. Foolishly I'd decided on a title prior to recording, 'The
Anatomy of Disaster', which I think has turned into a prophecy
rather than an album title. But we're almost there (I hope), just
have to go back into the studio to re-record a couple of the tracks
that were on the demo as IATDE recs were keen for us to include
them. They're paying so who are we to argue. Other tracks so far
recorded include 1 - Automated Bullshit Generator. 2 - 364
and counting (Rise of the maggots). 3 - Descender. 4 - Monochromatic.
5 - Forked Tongue Evolution. 6 - Hangman. 7 - To skin a Chameleon.
We had recorded a further track (an instrumental) 'As the Crow
Flies', but it's looking like we'll be holding this back for
another release now. Anyway, hopefully this will now all be seeing
the light of day in April, just need to get on and do all the
artwork now. In the meantime, local folk can catch us making some
noise at the Marquee in Norwich on Sat March 5th alongside Narcosis,
Army of Flying robots, Patient Zero and Bleed 13. Should be a
good un'

- The new BAIT demo 'Every Lie I've Ever Lived' is finally done
and dusted and is this very moment being pressed up. Hopefully
we'll have a few boxes ready to sell by the end of the week. Please
contact us via the email address at the bottom of the page for
details if you're interested in getting hold of a copy. Most of
the initial pressing are going out to labels, mags etc as promos.
So if you want to reserve one of the few left we'll be selling
let us know. Don't fret though, we'll get more pressed up as and
when needed, we just don't want to start off with a house full
of unsold c.ds, we've all learnt that lesson in previous bands
;oP

21/4/03 - Thanks
to everyone who came out to our gig on April 19th with Clockwork
Psycho, PDHM and Lapsed Pacifist. We had a total blast and couldn't
be happier with how it went. Cheers to Errol and Kim for putting
us on. There would have been a full gallery of live shots but
the guy who was taking some pro quality photos let someone borrow
his camera to look at the pics while he went to the toilet and
they accidentally wiped the cameras memory....doh!! Thankfully
some friends took some snapshots. Read a review of the gig on
the plug studios website HERE
Also,
I'm really pleased to announce that the long, lost DIE KREUZEN
tribute album that BAIT recorded a track for back in 1997 is finally
seeing the light of day. I just received word from Mark of the
U.S label EROSION RECORDS that the release of the album is immanent.
As soon as I have details of the full track listing how to get
hold of this I'll put it up here. For the uneducated out there,
DIE KREUZEN were one of the most amazing and cruelly underrated
bands ever. They hailed from Millwauke U.S and exploded onto the
scene in the early 80's with one of the most stunning, savage
and seminal HC albums of the time. That was only the beginning
though. They surprised and shocked many from the closed minded
HC elite by going on to release increasingly twisted and left
field rock albums. In many ways, I see what they did as similar
to what CAVE IN are doing now, i.e not sticking to the safe path
and doing their own thing, staying true to themselves and making
some of the most awesome and truly emotional albums ever. We've
butchered a version of Stomp which was on their third (and in
my mind) best album, CENTURY DAYS. We don't even begin to come
close to doing them justice but I'm just privileged to be involved
at all. I don't know how easy it is to get hold of their back
catalogue (they split up many moons ago) but they were on TOUCH
AND GO recs, I'd recommend you go and search them out. Mid.

DIE KREUZEN website for everything you ever wanted to know.
