Ending a sold-out set at NY’s Terminal 5 last night Refused singer Dennis Lyxsen declared the band wouldn’t be gotten by boredom tonite. Less than an hour later we got word through the grape vine the band would be playing a one off secret gig at the Archeron space in Bushwick. 20 Minutes later the word was out, the line was around the block and this is what went down.
Video after the jump. Special thanks to Rich Hall and 1000 Knives productions!
Our boys Unstoppable Death Machines will be hitting the road. The band will be touring out to Texas this week for SXSW and just released this awesome new video flyer with even more footage from their video release party.
Full list of tour dates after the bump.
Our friends Unstoppable Death Machines just did a music video release for their epic jam Space Time Continuum at Present Co. in Brooklyn at the end of January. When it got to the end of the set people went apeshit all over the band’s art installation and basically wrecked the place.
Watch the whole clip to witness the havoc the band and their fans let loose on this unsuspecting art gallery.
Riot Style is pleased to announce we’ll be teaming up with legendary Richmond, VA fun-core act VCR! VCR previously put out two records, VCR and Power/Destiny on Side One Dummy records. Unfortunately the band broke up in 2008 but they are back from the dead to party one last time with Riot Style!

We’ve commissioned a limited run of skate decks for Vancouver Skate Punk / Metal band Streets in commemoration of their three CD reissues on Riot Style. It features refreshed artwork originally by Lisa Sussman and redrawn by Barf (Municipal Waste / Born Ugly / Barf Comics). We will be giving away a few of these skateboard decks at retail and on various music blogs throughout the year.
There will be a limited number of Streets Skate Decks for sale in the Riot Style store.
