Ireland is now cancelled, so its all England, Ireland and Scotland.

They actually start the tour on Thursday 28th April (NOT the Tuesday as stated in original post)

Tour will be starting South, going up (west) to Scotland and back down (east).

Better to email me at ska1ska@yahoo.com

Some reviews to entice you

MRR#258, nov2004
The Kyklooppien Sukupuutto demo Cd from Tampere, Finland is amazing in
every single sense: great sound quality, nice layout, and a separate
sheet with their lyrics translated into English. Their music is a punch
in a face-an unrelenting chaotic allout attack. The drumming stands
over
the rest, never stopping and going as fast as possible without reaching
into grind territories. The guitar is dark and straightforward with
really interesting progressions, and the vocals have the sense of
urgency that I consider a trademark of Finnish punk. The lyrics are an
intelligent critique of modern civilization from a personal point of
view. To top of it Members used to play in Tampere SS, Kirous, and
Totuus. I just can't wait to get more from these Finns.(Paco)

Kyklooppien Sukupuutto*demo
I think you could refer to this band as Finnish post-hardcore punk. the
band plays in manner of rapid fire riffing and pounding drums and a
steady flow of urgent vocals about our crumbling socoety, and feeling
of
hopelessness. This shit sounds pissed off! Check this band out if you
would like a barrage of hardcore punk fury that echoes Finland's punk
roots and adds a fresh breath of modern elements.(CF)

Kyklooppien Sukupuutto "s/t" CD 7/10 - [self-released]
Here's some rugged, crusty hardcore/punk out of Finland with a good mix
of hectic speeds and barked vocal shouts with slightly slower (never
too
slow) and quirkier riffing that gives them an unusual vibe. It's
aggressive and sort of dark, but it's not too heavy, there's not really
a pounding rhythm or any sort of truly metallic side to it. There's
just
a lot of distortion and a good amount of changeups to keep things
interesting, and a lot of the chord progressions are pretty
straightforward and have a fast early-80's US sort of style (check out
"Et Ymmärrä Mitä et Saa" especially). "Eristyksissä Todellisuudesta" is
one of the few tracks that has a tangible breakdown, but the drumming
is
sort of frantic and they put it at the end of the song, so they
definitely mess with atypical conventions on occasion.
"Itsekkyyttä/Itsesuojelua" throws around a little more subtle
dissonance
in the chords and basslines as well, which is a great touch. The
recording takes a little getting used to because the drums sound a
little weird and can overpower the mix at times, but other than that it
sounds great. It's raw, intentionally, but that totally works on the
guitars, bass, and vocals, which mesh together perfectly and all have
their own identities. If they could get the drums to sound a little
thicker and fall back in line they'd be set. The CD-R comes in a white
paper sleeve secured inside of a professionally printed black and white
booklet on matte paper, and inside is a xeroxed insert with English
translations of the lyrics (which are all delivered in Finnish). The
lyrics are cool too, carrying a socio-political message about the
current state of the world with a pretty open approach that's not at
all
generic in my opinion, as they give it a personal spin and don't simply
regurgitate what every other band is saying about these types of
issues.
This is a cool demo. I really like the fact that they're staying very
true to the style of hardcore that seems to have largely inspired them,
but there's just enough creativity both musically and lyrically to set
them apart a bit and give them their own sort of approach. I'd say this
is one to watch.
