UoD's first full length to be released on Crash and Burn Records will be out this March. Look for a cd release party somewhere in Chico, as well other shows in NorCal.

The Union Of The Deads are heading to Sacramento on Jan. 18-19 to record at the world famous Pus Cavern North Recording Studios. Hmmm. Pus Cavern? Deftones, Papa Roach and Cakerecorded some of their best at Pus Cavern, and Chico's oddman just finished a killer session there. Keep checking in for more details. Also, Cliff wants to add the Vacaville show is cancelled, so don't go.

Did a massive overhaul of the site. Hope it still makes sense. Also, am not so sure it will work with Navigator, so I will have to work that out.
posted by pete g 12/14/2000 10:06:27 PM

Added a couple of show reviews, and combined the press page with this page. Even threw in some pullquotes so you all can read the nice things all them people are saying about all them UoD boys. I am working on another redesign of the site, should be done with in the week. If you have any ideas to holler at me, holler them at me.

***DECEMBER 1 (Friday)
UoD opens for them imps guys, and them indie rockers Isabell open for the UoDs. Get it? Pete can't write today, so you have to figure that confusing shit out on your own. Also, this all takes place at Mr. Lucky (3rd & Main, Chico) and you young-ens aren't allowed because this is a big people show.

The Synthesis (Front Cover) by Max Sidman

"UOD are...a punk rock combo of the classic variety--pomaded dos, tattoos and a hard charging, high-revving sound that puts the throttle to floor."

The Orion by Ben Kelly

"This 1 1/2-year-old band is one of the most hard hitting and good-natured punk bands in the local scene."

The Synthesis by Pete Geniella

"Punk bands come and go, so it’s not often a band comes up, ripping shit up from the get-go. Blasting the rock & roll fundamentals of rebellion, volume and catchy choruses, Union Of The Dead puts on a wicked show."

White Wall Slicks & Incredible Diamonds

"Union of the Dead's set was forceful and potent."

Strung Out & Flipwreck

"They just released a CD and I must say, they absolutely go off."

Murder City Devils & the Catheters

"Union of the Dead's set was very cool as usual. They played typical punk rock but with a classic rock edge."

Murder City Devils & Cowboy

"The trio rocked the house, bringing the people out from behind their tables, the true punk rockers gathered at the feet of the beloved local band. The UOD boys have a definite punk rock ‘n’ roll sound."

International Noise Conspiracy, Karate, & Bluetip

"Guitarist Gerardo Wackenhut and frontman Cliff Greenwood put on their usual stellar performances."

imps & damelo

"UOD tore up the stage with their usual rock 'n' roll ferociousness. In rare form, the band assaulted their instruments and the stage."

Our Synthesis Bio Page

Just about everything listed above, plus some slick photo-graphs.
