LATEST LiVE REViEW
And to tempt you to come and see us or to book us, here is the latest live review from one of the UK's most honest and respected publications, ORGAN:

"Spit Like This are a defiantly healthy shock rock throw back. Four of them, looking good and sounding even better. Classic punked-up no messing shock-rocking glam metal stomp – think Madam X, early Crue, Wolfsbane, Misfits, Alice Cooper, early days of Poison, Twisted Sister (before things got all MTV slick), think all that and stick in a great big blender with some London X factor, shake it all up, stir it just a little and throw it all right back up along with all the fake stage blood and the soiled tampon damage. Painted leather, big black hair, even bigger attitude - smoke machines, riffs, fluorescence colour, Ant-beats, lurid skulls, theatrics and everything as over the top as it could possibly be – no one does it quite like Spit Like This! Horror glam punk rock is what they call it and on stage is where it all comes to larger than life reality. This is not twee indie music for the faint hearted! Lord Zion up front demanding attention, Vikki Spit driving things with her meaty bass lines, Cyndi Rott with the punk-metal riffs and Vile Gilez banging the beat. – the four of them are just one big brash shock-metal riot-ball rolling right on at you and assaulting all your senses at once... They roar through their short set (this is a club more than a regular full-on gig), that slice through an outrageous helping of Sweet Transvestite Rocky Horror Picture Show - riffs fly, hair flies, audience participation is demanded , strobes erupt, rock is shocked and once again Spit Like This more than live up to their growing word-of-mouth live reputation... See ‘em if you dare."

LiVE ViDEOS FROM THE TEK, ESSEX
Last weekend was one of the most manic, ever.  We played at The Tek, in Essex, one of our favourite venues.  Within minutes of the doors opening the venue was at capacity and there was still a couple of hundred left outside!  Thankfully, our merch girl Hayley caught all of our set on video camera from the audience.  So we have YouTubed four songs for your viewing please.  Visit our YouTube channel at http://youtube.com/spitlikethis.com to view them

NEW TATTOO STUDiO OPENiNG
Sophie at True Will Tattoos (who has done nearly all of Vikki's tatts and makes a small guest appearance on our album) is opening a new studio - her first, in fact - at Spook Hill, North Holmwood, Surrey, RH5 4HH.  Visit http://www.truewilltattoos.com for more info and, Sophie, GOOD LUCK!  

THE END
If I could leap out of this NOiZLETTER to give each and every one of you a big hug - or a manly handshake - I would!  There is something on the horizon that we are really excited about and, once it takes place, we will be able to reveal all about our forthcoming album.  The reason why I'm feeling so warm and fuzzy toward you all is that it is because of your support that we have come this far.

This whole SPiT LiKE THiS Universe started off as a mad dream more years ago than I care to remember.  A total 100% DIY labour of love that has just grown and grown and become bigger than we dared hope.  Of course, it will continue to grow, but I will never forget our extremely humble beginnings.

Every day we receive messages, emails, comments on myspace from people just like you telling us how much they love what we do, how it speaks to them and how they are proud to be part of it.  They are smart people, the recognise that SLT offers something a bit different and wholly unique.  We truly are more than a band, it is a total way of life.

So, whether you are a hardcore fan or merely a casual observer, THANK YOU.  Over the next couple of months, we should have something very exciting to tell you. 

See You At The Front...
