While we have been very inactive here, we have been active other places. D.J. Dirty So-n’ So got into town this evening and we will record a ton of stuff over the next few weeks. Leopold Logan Loeb will be here on a few days. We have some submissions to work with, but would love to have more. Send some! Web site should be updated soon. More info and such soon too!
Jesus In A Bunny Suit April 12, 2009
Let me start off by making it clear that I have no problem with a persons choice of religion. It is what one does with that choice that usually gets under my skin. When some fanatical Christian tries to save my soul or force me to go to church, when they judge me for not being exactly like them, when they assume that just because I am not exactly like them then I am evil and have no faith. This going other ways as well. When moron Atheist’s ruin simple traditions because of the word “God” or when they wont let their children have Christmas because of the word “Christ”. How fucking retarded can you all really be? Don’t answer that, I already know. Faith is very personal. It really should be left that way. Not saying you shouldn’t be proud, but don’t be judgmental, don’t assume, and by all means, don’t ruin simple enjoyment in a child’s life. They only get to be young once. They have the rest of their lives as pathetic adults to do whatever they decide to do or not do. Let them have Halloween, fuck this whole movement by Christians who think Halloween is evil and try to change it into “Harvest” and make it about Jesus instead of it being about kids getting dressed up, having fun, and most importantly collecting candy! How can adults justify in their heads this form of child abuse? You know these kids are a major minority and when they are out at school or with their friends, they hear about presents, candy, searching for eggs, and how the fuck do you think it makes these odd kids out feel? You idiots wonder why they walk into a school and shoot people or grow up and massacre their families and burn their homes to the ground. It’s not violence in films and video games. It’s the abuse of children by parents who do not allow their children to be what they are…..kids. Kids need to be dirty, venture off into the woods, fall and break a bone, trick or treat, break rules, and ultimately learn valuable lessons about the life they are living. As we get older, we become the enemy of our youth. Mortality ensures the children will always win. If that isn’t a great gift from a god, I don’t know what is. If we want to stand a chance in the battle of the ages, then we need to allow the young to embrace the things that make them youthful so when they become the enemy, they can at the very least be understanding of the situation they are in. Maybe then as adults you could sleep better at night not having to worry about little Timmy slipping in your room and cutting your throat. So this has little to do with Jesus in a bunny suit, but then again, maybe it has everything to do with it. Use your brain people. Happy Easter God damn it!
I can’t help myself… March 28, 2009
Anyone that knows me knows that I bubble over with excitement every time I have a new release. I don’t want to be THAT guy on THIS board.

Those Naked Guys – Volume I Coming Soon!
Things have been a little quiet on the TNG front, but only because we here at Riotous Records have been rather busy. It is still moving forward and looking like a mid 2009 release of this highly anticipated history lesson of Those Naked Guys. www.riotousrecordsusa.com
Flat Affect/Cat’n'Bone (split) – Fucks all the Girls in the World
An album that can only be described as an exploration of pornography and nature. Take one half Flat Affect (from America) and one half Cat’n'Bone (from Russia) and you get this wonderful split record full of harsh pornoise.
Plus, it’s Pornoise for Charity! That’s right. We allow YOU to decide how much you pay for this album, and whatever you pay us, we will donate HALF to charity! What charity? Dave (Riotous Records co-founder) will personally go to local fast food restaurants and gas stations and put the donate half of the money into whatever charity jar the place of business has on their counter!
We’re counting on you to be somewhat honorable here, folks, and add the $2 shipping into your donation. If you don’t give us at least $2.02 ($2 for shipping, $.01 for us, and $.01 for the charity), we won’t be able to send you out the CD. www.riotousrecordsusa.com
Jesus Fucking Christ and the God Damn It’s
Jesus Fucking Christ and the God Damn It’s have had a little time off. There is rumor of a few shows, but they refuse to post or inform anyone of any solid information. There is their drummers release this Tuesday with Alluvia as mentioned above. There is also talk about them recording a tribute to Those Naked Guys as well as starting work on their new full length album that they claim will be called Nudity. At this point, this is about as much as we know. Until then, pick up some of their other music or download it (see below)! www.riotousrecordsusa.com
Other News, Rumors, And Information
Some of you may have noticed we have taken a lot of content off of your myspace page. This is because it is too much like work to keep up with this and the main website. So no worries, nothing is gone, just go to www.riotousrecordsusa.com and it is all there plus some! We have also added upcoming shows from our artists on our myspace page. We will do our best to keep this current, but it is still best to check the actual bands page to be sure we haven’t missed something.
Remember, He Has Risen by JFCatGDI’s is also available at Interpunk.com so maybe you should order from them if you don’t trust ordering from us already! That or you could really save in shipping if you were going to order other stuff from other bands and wanted it to all ship together in a nice package from the kind folks at Interpunk. www.riotousrecordsusa.com
We Are Currently Uploading Everything Into A New Download Format
These nice little download widgets (brought to you from www.bandcamp.mu) can be found on all of our myspace pages and soon on the download section of the Riotous Records site. The rest of our catalog and everything we have that is out of print will be coming soon!
Have you made it this far into the update? Very good!

Work, Corona, Abe, and Columbus Indiana February 12, 2009
Well hello everyone. I am currently in Columbus Indiana. Work releated trips are always fun in that borning sort of way. Not bad though really. Mostly I just miss the shit out of my wonderfully perfect wife and super spectacular child. Plus work at home hanging over my head that I want to complete annoys me when I am not there to complete it. If it doesn’t show, I have had a few tasty Corona’s tonight. Good stuff I must say so myself. Even better when you don’t have to buy them. So now I am killing a few minutes here in the “buisness center” of the Holiday Inn. This place is pretty sweet actually. Indoor pool, golf, shoe shine, resturant, pub, bakery, store, game room, and shitty tv. I have spent too much time watching shit about Abe Lincoln this week. I love history and American Presidents for that matter, but enough is enough! Nothing else to watch at all. I take that back. HBO still has the whole “real Sex” series going on and I caught some of that. Mostly yuck though. Anyway, speaking of Abe, The Unstables record “Fire In The Whole” featuring President Lincoln on the cover should be out very soon! You know you are all looking forward to that! Also there is a rumor of a split featuring The Unstables and a band from Indonisia that I can’t seem to remember the name of at the moment. Before that split you will see the split from Alluvia and D.J. Dirty So-n’ So that will be out on March 3rd! So yeah. I think I need to go. Back to the pub for a few more rounds of Corona, then Serenity is on SciFi I think. Back home sometime tomorrow afternoon. Be good everyone! I’m off like a bra!

A Night With The Unstables January 31, 2009
Well guitars on 6 tracks are now complete! About 3 hours and a lot of beer later we had to call it a night, but not before taking this wonderful group photo.
Guess WHat?! January 28, 2009
We are just about done recording bass tracks for The Unstables record. (most of) They are hgere right now. You should all be very jealouse right about now. Maybe we need to have a webcam so you can see them in action. So that is really all I have to say because I should be working, you know, recording n all that shit.
Music January 26, 2009
So I’m sitting around trying to find music to listen to and nothing was found but some doom metal that was actually enjoyable except that all the bands were just one-man projects so all the drums are programmed and sound funny. Any recommendations?
