One of the fun things we’re leaving behind in 2024 now we’ve entered 2025 is our UK-weekender!
But thanks to MPRV News - Punk Rock Video we got the full Liverpool-set to look back to.
Let’s make 2025 a year with shitloads of fun shows and not just a year full of shit!

Right before we went to the UK, Studio Boktor printed us new shirts. Designed by https://www.instagram.com/trip.pim/ , ‘falling person’ is part of an art series he created for NCWM.
Head over to our webshop in case you’re searching for a fancy holiday-gift. Sizes range from S to XXL. And while you’re at it, there are still some sizes left of previous designs and the very last copies of our Misery Is Company 7” and the No Change Without Me 12”, tape and cd.

We had a very nice chat with MPRV before our Liverpool-show. Check out the interview about our history, influences, releases and inclusion in punk! Thank you MPVR for dropping down to Liverpool and taking the time to talk with us and thank you for capturing some of the live energy of The Outpost, also to local Liverpool-legend Tom Ward (Snakes Among Us) for handling the 2nd live cam and being an awesome host!

We’ve released (and have been released on) cd’s, tapes, 7”, 10” 12” and featured on sites and zines but never in a real book. Until now! David Gamage (Engineer Records, Rydell, The Atlantic Union Project) put a whole chapter on the history of Rites in his new book called The Fire Still Burns. Swipe to read the first two pages, there’s 13 more if you pre-order it via www.ritesritesrites.nl Earth Island Books just put up the pre-order of this 726 pages bad boy. It includes chapters about Antillectual, BEAR AWAY, Sleave, Wake The Dead, yours truly and many many more.

Playing the UK felt like coming home after a six year holiday. Massive thanks to Chris / Positive Reaction for the insane energy in Newport and to Stu and Kristianne for creating the best atmosphere in Southampton.
Back home and already planning our return, probably won’t take another six years!
