Last announcement for 2011

We finished off with some cool shows in Waregem & Deinze... Great to end 2011 like this! Thanx to everyone who was there!!

This weekend, the pre-production for the new album has started, which means 'demos for the new album' in case you're unfamiliar with 'pre-production' :)

In other news, guitarplayer Qrizz is leaving Belgium for a while, he's gonna tour around Central-America, and will perform a few shows on his own (& with guests) around Guatemala & Mexico. Whenever he's back, M*E*S will pick up where we left off, and will start gigging again... Some cools shows will be announced after New Year, so stay tuned!

We secretly hope to record the new album during the Spring of 2012... we're really, really excited about the new songs!

Bye Bye For Now!!

Final Shows of 2011 / beginning of 2012

This weekend we will be playing our last shows of 2011 & beginning of 2012. We'll play 2 shows on Nov. 12th: we'll be rocking the ROCKVLUCHT-festival in Waregem (17h30), and next up is the 'SNOW MUST GO ON'-benefit show in JC Brieljant, Deinze. Cool to have 2 shows to end with, near our hometown(s)...

After these shows, we'll start the pre-production of our next album, and head into hibernation.
Besides the recording & release of our 3rd full album, there's some interesting stuff going to happen in 2012, but more 'bout that after New Year!

Hope to see you around in Waregem/Deinze!

Halloween!

Wow, now that was great! We're talking about the show in Desselgem... One of the best Belgian shows we've played in a long while... Thanx to the great crowd... cheers! A few more shows before our hibernation takes off. Starting with what is becoming an annual event for us: a Halloween-gig. October 31 @ JH Diezie in Roeselare (starts at 20h). This will be a free show, with a 'scary' afterparty afterwards.So bring your fake/real blood, scary masks, skeletons, spiders, gothic outfit etc with ya, ok? Kurt Baker (USA, you might know the dude from the Leftovers) will also perform that night. Trick or treat!!

DESSELGEM

Tonight (14th of Oct) we'll play a show @JH Jakkedoe (Desselgem) together with The Softenon Babies (our bassplayer Brecht's other band - punkrock/garagerock) and Doctor Balls & the Pornomedics (the band of our drummer Brahim's brother - rockabilly/rock'n'roll). Hey guys, make some merch soon, will ya... we're anxious to buy some Doctor Balls-stuff... This show is part of a 48h-marathon, benefits will be donated to Make A Wish... Jh Jakkedoe, Nieuwstraat 6, Desselgem. Gig starts around 21h!

New Merch!

We nearly forgot to mention that we've got some new merch for sale! Different sizes (S, M, L, XL, hoodies and girlies). Get one of these at our shows or contact us, and we'll make sure you have your shirt in no time!!

Doggie-style

Last Saturday, Family of Dog, one of Deinze's most famous/furious hardcore punkbands reformed for this one show only. (Well,...) It was at one of their shows, back in 1996, that M*E*S played its first show. It may come as no surprise that lots of people from back in the days attended this show. Among the crowd, almost the entire M*E*S-line-up past/present: Koen (vocals), Fré (bass), Vik (bass), Jacob (bass), Jeff (drums) and Bjorn (Vocals) + Qrizz (Guitar) + Jones (Keyboard) from the current line-up. We had a good hangout and enjoyed some good tunes.

Here We Go Again...

... well, at least, we've confirmed a few shows for October. Rehearsals should start in the next few weeks again. We can't remember that we ever took such a looooong holiday, but this all should result in new & fresh ideas!
