Contributed by DrewXFishy. Posted by aubin on Thursday, November 5, 2009 at 3:00 PM (EST)

Swedish punks Millencolin have finished a year and a half long tour in support of their 2008 record, Machine 15. Now, the members each have separate projects that they are working on until the time comes to record the next record.

The band had the following statement:

Mathias is currently at our Sound Lab studios recording the second Franky Lee album. Nikola Sarcevic has finished the recording of his new solo album. Larzon is playing shows with his Kvoteringen. A new album is recorded and will be out soon. Erik is working with his graphic design company Eckhouse Design. Currently he's working on Nikolas new artwork and lots more. Erik has also together with Sejka (former Burning Heart/Epitaph, now Live Nation) just started booking bands at the newly opened nightclub the Ritz in Örebro.

Creativity is still my gasoline is a circular narrative in many ways where it kind of sums up the human race in a time capsule.

What does this have to do with crocoduck?

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

keen for nikolas next solo album

"A new album is recorded and will be out soon."

shit they pumped that out quick, i think this is the last album they are in contract for.. after that they could never make an album again for all they cared

"Larzon is playing shows with his Kvoteringen. A new album is recorded and will be out soon"

Kvoteringen is releasing a new record.
And about the contract ending, that's not any different from the 2004 fiasco.. When label people came from across the ocean to check them out on a gig where they played a ridiculously bad set, forcing them to re-sign with BH.

Now this is what I call an update. One paragraph and we see a shitload of new albums on the horizon (and other things). If only news posts were always this efficient.

Lawrence Arms are playing tonight. They're one of the few org bands that I dont really get most of the time, but I still don't mind them. Pay 15 bucks and go or pass and get drunk with my buds?

bish (November 5, 2009)

15 bucks man, it could kindle a love affair that so many of us have

dev (November 5, 2009)

Get your buds to go get drunk with you at the $15 Larry Arms show. Win. Win. Win.

Give Erica a ride she needs one

Punkengineer (November 5, 2009)

I really want to go to this show but the massive amounts of school work on top of working full time will probably prevent me from going.

friokir (November 5, 2009)

get drunk.

AllAgesPete (November 5, 2009)

My bedroom is like for artists.
what is yours?

punk_sk (November 5, 2009)

my middle-class upbringing tells me my bedroom is the perfect size for a baby. sure, there's enough room to sleep in there but it's small size is constantly reminding me how hungry i am for something bigger.

badbrain (November 5, 2009)

They should do a tour where they play Same Old Tunes, Life On A Plate and For Monkeys in their entireties

friokir (November 5, 2009)

this! I wouldn't mind if they just played songs only from those albums aswell.

givemeamuseumandillfillit (November 5, 2009)

Uhm... record and tour bombed. Absolutely bombed. No one gives a fuck anymore.

TheMike (November 5, 2009)

"No one gives a fuck anymore."

These sorts of posts are getting to be even more annoying than "first!". If you didn't care, you wouldn't waste your breath here.

givemeamuseumandillfillit (November 5, 2009)

Millencolin's from Sweden - I'm from Sweden, I think I can give a decently viable opinion on the subject.

Even if I bought the record - no one still gives a fuck.

Rudy87 (November 5, 2009)

actually dude, I give a fuck

TheMike (November 5, 2009)

Because Millencolin never grew beyond their local scene, right?

LookingForCorpses (November 5, 2009)

No one gives a fuck anywhere. But be careful, I don't want to spark the anger of who ever the fuck it was a few months back insisting Millencolin were one of the bigger bands on Epitaph in the mid 90s and built Epitaph along with the Offspring, Pennywise, Rancid,

BarleyPat (November 6, 2009)

That's true, I'm from the US so I must be an authority on all the American punk bands and you don't know shit? I'm a big Millencolin fan and I agree that Machine 15 was a HUGE letdown, but you still come across as a complete douche every time you post.

givemeamuseumandillfillit (November 8, 2009)

Unless you live in every city in every state that's not comparable.

I do? Well, all I'm saying about this is that they're now playing gigs for 5k. That's a tenth of their fee just a few years ago.

TheChemist (November 5, 2009)

This.
