3.12.2008 - Olli in da House! The 5-string demon jumped into our midst just a few weeks ago, perfectly timed to put on some recording boots and join the studio team! The first live initiation also came quite nicely in the middle of recordings, too. Again the band evolves and improves, and the main focus is the recording of the upcoming album. Stay tuned at STUDIO DIARIES! Check out the interview done by Unik Paper HERE.
19.11.2008 A nice taste of things to come in the player, released beforehand just for you! This track is aptly called 'Paranoid'. We are - and strive to be - original, you see. Enjoy this one, and just to be sure, come experience it live at the Studio Sucks Gig! After that it's back to the studio to finish the whole damn record! Want to see what the ANAL stands for? Stay tuned i tell you!
The gig is with a few other bands, Stigmatize, Intromed, TND and Dreamers. Schmorf will kick things off at 20.15. Tickets are 3e, and the doors will open at 20.00. Don't you dare to miss this one! This gig will feature a new song from the upcoming record, and a new member. Yes, you read it correctly! For an official statement, check back here in a few days...
28.10.2008 Studio has become familiar, and vocals and postproduction is still on the 'todo'-list, and we're done with the first sample of the whole batch of songs we're recording this time! In the meantime.... Vote for Schmorf to get to the same stage with Slayer at the Unholy Alliance III HERE. Be sure to vote honestly. Any 2-numbered vote will be accepted. Also, check out 2 new (well, sort of...) reviews HERE! And be sure to stay tuned with the Studio Diary!
12.8.2008 As you've probably noticed, we've been knee-deep in organizing The Good, The Bad And The Ugly -project, but here's a short-term plan for Schmorf, before the shit REALLY hits the fans with touring and shit'n stuff. Firstly, some brand spankin' new tunes has been rehearsed, so we are definitely looking at a new release sometime during 2008. Will it be an EP, an album or something different, is not evident right now, but at least 4 new songs will be recorded. My crystal ball is kinda hazy, but i think it is trying to say that the total number will be more. A few gigs will definitely be witnessed. These will be added to the GIGS-page as soon as they're confirmed. Now is also the first time in a loooooooong time that we're able to concentrate totally on polishing the songs, and that will be utilised as much as possible. Stay tuned for pics from gigs, and maybe - JUST MAYBE - some absolutely normal videos taped by totally sober people doing everyday things. You know what sarcasm means, don't you?
20.7.2008 Three bands, namely Schmorf, Stigmatize and Narmer got together and decided that it's time to stir things up a bit, and the seed of an idea was born to create The Good, The Bad And The Ugly. Stigmatize being The Good, Narmer The Bad, and (to no big surprise - i might add) Schmorf as The Ugly. This fits into the master plan perfectly, as the whole idea to begin with was to expand the concept of performing to something a little more... interesting. Since day one this has been the goal. Now we are taking a huge step in realizing this. Yes, there will be gigs, yes, there will be music, and yes, everything that has happened before, but now with an extra dose of... well, EVERYTHING. The first performance will consist of three metal bands strutting their stuff and a whole hell of a lot of shit'n stuff. So get to the website and check things out, 'cause now the shit is about to hit the fans big time!
This project has been in the making for some time now, and now the plan has been set in motion! The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is three bands (Stigmatize, Narmer and Schmorf), three unlikely companions, who are set to change the paradigms of performing, touring and thinking up goofy shit for you to enjoy. So there IS going to be more of the 'unexpected'-type of stuff coming your way! Maybe, just maybe we will have some gigs with only Schmorf, but the near future is more or less GBA-oriented.
And this is the reason for a pause in updating, we've been up to our ears in doing unholy, wicked plans. Not long before we are to reveal all the things. Patience, i say! Our friends at meteli.net were nice enough to provide us with a page with all sorts of info, and a forum! Go say hi HERE. The date of the gig at Raahe has been changed from 12.7 to 9.8! So, stay with us as we finalize some repulsive things and check back!
5.6.2008 In the language of 'Schmorf', this means rehearsing new material, and thinking up goofy shit for y'all. Those of you who has read the papers, at least HERE, knows that again - we are up to wishy washy, no-good stuff! In the late summer, you will find out if we are Good, Bad or Ugly... The contest has found a winner! There is one lucky man (woman?), who is now one Satans of Blackmetal -t-shirt richer! Unfortunately we have no contact info on him so this is a holler out to you with the pseudonym JölliMies! Contact us to get your prize! The question was 'Why the bill after the gig at Kälviä?', and the answer is as follows! Some of the band members found some frozen buns backstage, and ate them. Drama at it's highest! Rebels, that's who we are! Viva la revolucion! We are also proud to announce the first EVER performance of Villimies! This is how a legend is made! Check out schmorfTV for this! Don't forget your vomitbags! Youtube has been desecrated! Check out THIS LINK for some gnarly shit! By the way, this was THE actual Eve of Bun Eating (tm). Off to the Church of the Unholy! PS. Wanna know what happens at the studio recordings? How does 'Alfa Omega & The Päissääns' really come to life? What kind of vocals can actually be heard at the 'Go Crazy'-part of I Am? Go to schmorfTV, but remember to take all the comments with a grain of salt, as alcohol was involved...
18.5.2008 It's always nice to see Sweden roll over and die during the hockeygames, but at least they lost to Switzerland by only 2 goals. Improvement by our dear neighbors!

12.2.2008 After the gig at Ravintola Kultakala, camp schmorf gathered it's possessions and rendezvoused at Lahnakoski Records, with new songs on their mind. Read the details at Studio Diaries. We also got into the business of mixing and mastering ourselves, and my god the Big Emptiness, this gamble paid off. The new stuff sounds so awesome you want to cry. But in the name of all things holy, do not take our word for it, listen to some new material, by all means! If i'm not totally off track, it should be playing in the player above, so... For a week or two, we will still be locked up at the Slimy Bowels of the Darned, what our mixing and mastering den is called. After this, all you folks will be treated with a good dose of schmorfine, in the form of an EP! This new musical lobotomy will feature 5 new tracks and cover art you want to kneel and absorb the pleasure of all the aural and graphical drugs coming your way! Stay tuned for updates!
20.1.2008 'THE' next thing is the upcoming gig, which will kick off a new era in the age of schmorf, being our first weekend headlining show. New songs WILL be heard and an unpredictable stage show is hitting the joint friday the 25.1! After the gig a few days has been set aside for studio, again, to polish up the rest of the record. Check out Studio diaries, which will be updated as soon as there's something to update. Also, to also step things up, schmorf has been looking for the absolute BEST service provider in the area of mp3's. And i'm glad to announce, we found it. Here you can check out Levyvirasto, who will be selling our records from now on for an undisclosed time.
