It doesnt seem like 20 years since the Exile on Mainstream label started life, time moves quickly…

In April this year the label will be celebrating its 20th Birthday in fine style at arguably our favourite venue in the world, the magnificent UT Connewitz in Leipzig.

We are very excited to be taking part in the event, we’ll be playing on Thursday April 4 at the nearby chapel, with our friends A WHISPER IN THE NOISE, with whom we played over 10 years ago!

Please come and join us for an amazing 4 days of LOVE, NOISE and FREEDOM!

Woah! A new Godspeed album arrived out of the blue (again). Titled “Asunder, Sweet and Other Distress” – it appears to be a recording of the 45 minute ‘track’ they have been playing at live shows for a year or so. This track had a working title of ‘Behemoth’ but it was unclear whether it was a full track or several pieces joined together. Well now we know….
