Do we have
some big news for you this month! Expect to be hearing a lot more
about your loveable huggable SPiT LiKE THiS from hereon in. Read
this and please join us in our celebrations...
SPiT
LiKE THiS SiGN RECORD DEAL
Yes, this is the big
one. The news we have been desperate to tell you about for the past
God knows how long. This has been on the cards for months now but,
it wasn't until we actually signed the hallowed pieces of paper did we
want to announce it. Just in case. But now we have and we can
tell you all about it.
We have
signed to UK Indie label TRANSCEND RECORDS (famed for having Fields Of
The Nephelim and Belisha on their books). We had been in discussions
with other labels but Transcend showed us that they understood what we
wanted to do and they had no desire to change us. In fact, their
only desire was to support us and propel us to the masses. Now
that's what I'm talking about!
We signed our
deal onstage at Skin Deep's "Tattoo Jam" (that we
headlined). Below is a photo from the signing (if you get this in
html) and you can view the whole thing here on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8KqrsXITKU
- as you can see, we did the signing in style!
ALBUM
AND SiNGLE DETAiLS
The first
release in this new partnership will be on October 20th in the
shape of a single. It will be available for download plus you can
buy it on CD single and - wait for it - limited edition green vinyl!
Our debut
album will follow on November 17th. The title of the album is
*drumroll*
We Won't
Hurt You (But We Won't Go Away)
We are having
the artwork done as we speak and it is going to be amazing. The
album will also be available as a limited edition gatefold vinyl so we are
having the most incredible art to go with it.

LiKE THiS RE-APPEAR AT HARD ROCK HELL

triumphant appearance at the inaugral HARD ROCK HELL festival, we
have been asked BACK to play for you all again at HARD ROCK HELL II.

Vikki and I were VIP'd

THE
END
I'm so proud to have been able
to have shared our news with you this month. As you know, SPiT
LiKE THiS has always stuck to it's guns and done things it's own
way. Finally, it has paid off. Without your support, we might
have given up ages ago but you have compelled us to keep at it. You
are truly an inspiration to us. Over
the next few months, we are going to call upon your support again and
again. Obviously, we are going to want you to buy our single and
album but, equally as important, we will want you to tell everyone you
know to buy our single and album! We and the label have big hopes
for the single and, with your help, I know we can achieve it. There
is so much going on here at the moment, I well advise you to keep an eye
on the main spitlikethis.com website as all the latest news goes online
first. Tomorrow we go into the studio for 3 days to record the
B-side to the single - we are going to have a fan join us to write a
report about it. That should be online this weekend. Have
an awesome summer!
