MONSTER ZERO PUNK ROCK ZINE!

They've been stalking Goomba about it for months, but finally Koopa Troopa, Rosalina and Boo got their act together. At this years Monster Zero Mash, they will proudly present the first issue of Monster Zero Punk Rock Zine! Inspired by the legendary Stardumb zine, this nice piece of art features interviews, articles and other stuff. Goomba already saw some of the stuff, and it's fantastic. After the Mash, it will be available from our store ofcourse.

A MESSAGE FROM THE BAT BITES!

The Bat Bites are yound, promising adults, and would therefore like to talk to you personally...

“Hi everybody! We are ready for the mash and we hope you are too! Our setlist will contain a lot of new songs. But don't worry, we will play some old ones aswell. We've rented a van to bring people to Austria, and we have two seats left. If you want to go to the mash.. hit us up. It's cheaper than flying and you will be accompanied by some cool people, and a lot of bats. Take care and see you all in the PMK!”

A MASSAGE FROM DEECRACKS!

DeeCracks are sexy and can also speak for themselves:

“DeeCRACKS recently returned from there US tour. With there Euro tour right before they set a new record with 5 hospital stops in 2 and a half months of touring, though they still got home save and are currently booking tours for 2013. Next year will be a busy year for the band since they celebrate their 10th anniversary in summer. Worldwide touring can be expected as well as new releases and a huge anniversary party! stay tuned!”
