We just came back from a superamazing weekend in Athens. On Friday we played a show there, which was really good. A lot of people, good bands, good energy, good feedback. Thanks to everyone who came. That was a nice welcome!
The rest of the weekend was all about great hangouts and sightseeing. Athens is an impressive city. You should go there, if you've never been there and if you get the chance. We hung out with the guys from RIVALS, who organised the show and also played there. On Saturday Julian recorded some guest vocals for them. The result can be listened to on their myspace.
Anyways, our next tour kicks off this Friday with the Belgium shows. We are really excited about it all. You should definitely check out our tour-buddies ILLS, which is a real good band. Here are the tourdates. Hopefully see you at one of these shows, beloved reader.

Wolves 7" has just reached its fourth press
Blacktop Records and Team Ritual both are happy to announce that our "Wolves" 7" EP, first released in December 2006, has just reached its fourth press. This little piece of vinyl has been a very nice companion, so we are glad that this record will continue to be available to anyone who's interested in it. This new edition is pressed on clear vinyl.
To celebrate this, Blacktop Records offers a very special deal: An exclusive shirt + the 7" + a free Blacktop CD altogether for only 12 Euros (incl. shipping within Germany), while stocks last. Check if your size is still available: http://blacktoprecords.de/ritual

We're supporting UNBROKEN in London
Dear friends,
we're more than happy to announce that we'll be supporting UNBROKEN on their single European show on October 16th. As you might be able to imagine, this means the world to us. UNBROKEN is one of those bands that got us into hardcore and that induced us to start a band ourselves. So this is totally mind-blowing to us!
We'd be happy to see some familiar faces there. Some tickets are still available.
Take care,
Team R.

Two shows in Greece
Although we had decided not to play any shows before our tour starting at the end of March, this was an offer we couldn't refuse: We'll be going to Greece for two shows on March 19th and 20th. The shows will happen in Athens and Patra. We are damn excited!

This is blowing my mind...
There's a kid called Alex who did guitar covers of two of our songs. Check this out, it totally knocked my socks off. I mean: There's someone playing OUR songs on youtube. Uh!
Thanks, Alex. Good job!
Thanks, Alex. Good job!

What's going to happen in 2010?
Here's our first blog update in 2010 to let you know what we've got planned for this year so far.
First and foremost, of course, we've got a tour coming up together with our friends in ILLS from Finland. I might have told you this before, but if you haven't checked them out, we highly recommend you to do this right away. This is their myspace and their songs on there are nothing but great and I'm excited to experience them live!
The organization of this tour has once again been done by ourselves and we were extremely happy about the quick progress it made. Here are the tourdates:
26.03.2010 Belgium, Turnhout @ JC Schorvoort
27.03.2010 Belgium, Mechelen @ JC Metteko
28.03.2010 France, Dunkerque @ La Kalvaire
29.03.2010 France, Paris @ Le Klub
30.03.2010 France, Bordeaux @ Heretic Club
31.03.2010 France, Montpellier @ Mojomatic
01.04.2010 Italy, Milano @ SGA
02.04.2010 Switzerland, Schaffhausen @ Fasskeller
03.04.2010 Austria, Salzburg @ Denkmal
04.04.2010 Austria, Wien @ Escape
05.04.2010 Germany, München @ Kafe Kult
06.04.2010 Czech Republic, Prague @ Klub 007
07.04.2010 Germany, Siegen @ Vortex
08.04.2010 Germany, Göttingen @ Juzi
09.04.2010 Germany, Berlin @ Subversiv
10.04.2010 Germany, Bremen @ G18
You can also find these shows on Last.FM. Needless to say, we'd be happy to meet you at one of these shows.
This will also be the last tour in support of our latest output "Beneath Aging Flesh and Bone", which leads me straight to the next topic I wanted to talk about: We've just started working on new material. At this point there's not much I can tell about it, except for the fact that this is definitely meant to become an album, not a 7" or any other smaller format. We don't have a working title or anything, but working on the new songs and the concept of the album totally captures our minds at the moment - and probably will for the coming months as well.
As for the summer, nothing is set in stone. We'll keep you up-to-date. Thank you for reading.

European Tour 2010 w/ ILLS
We're happy to announce another European tour in spring 2010. This time we'll hit the road with our Finnish friends ILLS. Two and a half years back we toured Finland with their old band SATURA LANX, so now we can't wait to spend some more good time with these lovely lads. This will also be the last tour in support of our latest output "Beneath Aging Flesh and Bone". We're doing the organisation of this tour on our own, this means we really depend on your help. If you'd like to have us in your city, drop me a line: philippjwulf@googlemail.com.
