CD Launch:

The CD was launched in the form of two launch parties on the 6th and 13th of June 2009, and the featured bands’ performances were split between the two gigs.

Here are some comments about the release parties from the bands:

On behalf of the three hairy gwailo contributors of this band of unpronounceable French name, I’d like to thoroughly thank the wonderful people at the underground for facilitating this genre defining recording of ours. We couldn’t have done it without you… While we do apologise for the pyrotechnics display, cut horribly short by over regulated health and safety policies, we assure each and every one of you, that your humble narrator, and his accompanying musical collaborators, give no less than 100% on stage, and it was indeed a pleasure doing so for this philanthropic venture.

Ben McCarthy [Poubelle International]

The Underground has supported us over the past three years, and we’ve always enjoyed our Underground gigs at the Edge, the Cavern and Club CiXi. The Underground has done more to support local Hong Kong bands than anyone else in Hong Kong. We hope you can continue for another 5 years and get more bands to have a go and make a noise.

Adrian Furby [Bone Table]

The underground show was a total blast. It got seriously hot, seriously sweaty and the crowd rocked the house and put up a great fight amidst the onslaught of noise!
