Here's Tim Krysko with our International Spotlight:

Wrapping up South Africa Month for us is Cape Town's Neshamah (sorry, South Africa, for the Cape Town bias this month). Neshamah is the only one of our four bands to have toured the US, and they've been over twice. Their last appearance was a 2003 tour with Norma Jean and Stretch Armstrong. Well, they've got a new album out called "Communicating in Heartbeats", released on Witchdoctor Records. And this weekend they're one of the headliners of the Knife Fight Festival in Cape Town (along with last week's Fokofpolisiekar, and many other top South African bands).

Neshamah - Five Fingers Down (MP3) Visitors in South Africa are welcome to contact Tim about other good bands in their country. Drop him a line at tim@punkinternational.com. Recent Spotlights: Fokofpolisiekar (South Africa), Tonight We Die (South Africa), Fuzigish (South Africa).
