Track listing:

"Disco Six Six Six", a 5 track CD only single, hits the racks on the 11th of November. The title track is a re-mastered version of the song from their Indie Top 5 album House Of GVSB released in March year. The other four tracks are culled from the "Dessau Sessions", recorded and mixed by Eli Janney in December 95. We trust that you are by now well acquainted with Disco Six Six Six so let us give you the low down on the other four tracks. These are thundering slabs of raw, dirty grooves owing more to the band's milestone album of 1993, "Venus Luxure No 1 Baby", than anything they have done since.

"Distracted" (also referred to as "RVS No. 7") is a carnival of hedonistic pleasure and should be a delight for all. The thrusting rhythm section coupled with dizzying effects from the keyboard lure you to move your body in ways you never thought you could.

"Do It Like Diamonds" is a dense wall of sound to accompany you through that dark foggy narrow passage coming down from a night of excess in some dimly lit drinking establishment. Only GVSB could make the feeling of walking home to a nightmare of a hangover seem so damn classy.

"Black Leather", their ode to animal skin, oozes forth like a panther stalking a particularly succulent piece of moving flesh.

"Keep Yer Pants On" just about sums it up. It's got thundering drums and bass so mean and low that your speakers' woofers will be under strain to keep up the pace. Nasty, bad, ugly, angry...and inviting.

The band are currently embarked on a mammoth European tour playing a total of 43 dates in 50 days which should be their last dates this year. They have been permanently on the road since the release of "House Of GVSB". They toured the UK, with label mates Brainiac, in March returning for a acclaimed performance at this year's Reading. They have crisscrossed the US with Lollapalooza and a scant 11 days before touching down in Europe they had just finished another swing through the US with Rage Against The Machine.

Please put your hands, hearts and minds together in welcoming them. All other body parts are done purely on a first come, first served basis.
