Some frequently asked questions need to be answered.
1)The STORE has been a huge success. As a matter of fact, if you don't see the size you want, be patient, odds are it is just being restocked. We have added a few limited edition designs. A couple of the old New Years Eve show shirts, an ash version of a Tomahawk design and the comic book Tomahawk design. Thes will only be available until they run out. You don't have many size choices on these. We are working on some embroidered items too. Don't forget you can purchase CDs from us by going to the DISCOGRAPHY section and clicking on purchase it for any of the released titles.
2) The FantômasMelvins live CD has been a huge success as well. We did not expect it to be honest. The CD will make an appearance on a couple billboard charts in the US. Once again, if you are having trouble finding it, be patient. We are scrambling to get more out there. For example, the Best Buy chain did not even get any of their order yet. Please make sure that the store you purchase it from is selling it cheaper than our other CDs.
3) A lot of people e-mail us looking for tour dates. Just to clarify, that is what the CALENDAR section is for. ALL dates that are confirmed, will be posted there. Not rumors or possible shows. More Melvins and Tomahawk dates coming soon!
4) We are working on something very special for the people on the east coast of the US. Stay tuned.
5) Mike is off the road but still very busy. He is finally recording the Dillinger Escape Plan EP, he hopes to start work on Peeping Tom in May, hopes to work on new Fantômas and Tomahawk records this Fall for release in 2003 and has a couple other projects in the planning stages. Tomahawk looks to be playing more US, European and Australian dates before the end of the year. Of course, right now he is concentrating on the NBA playoffs.
6) The honors are rolling in. Ipecac was named best Independent Record Label in Italy! Thanks to our Italian distributor White 'n' Black !!!!
7) H.A.T.H.A.T.H.A.T.H.A.T.H.A.T.H.A.T.H.A.T.
