[kj] OT: Amebix reunited, confirmed tour of USA January 2009!

[Christof hamille]

That torrent sounds good.  I love Rudi.  Haven't gotten the latest release yet.  I'm trying to find it locally.  Back on the topic of Southern/Amebix.  There seems to be quite a bit of "You're wrong, I'm right" attitude going on because of their clout.  It is getting tiring (again).  Not just Amebix but other bands and situations.

sigh
