It’s winter time…

There’s no need… to be afraid!

It’s rehersal time soon – and after a barnstorming single release party we’re back practicing again for a gig onslaught in 2011!

Mr Rick Steckles has joined us once more on the drum stool, and we’re looking forward to punking out some tunes in the near future!

Let there be ROCK!!!

Danger…of Death (Part 1)

Hello! We’ve been back in the studio this weekend rehearsing songs for the Danger of Death EP, which we’re planning to record in April. We were joined by the awesome bazzegboy who was busy taking all sorts of photos and videos that will doubtless be making appearances on our various web pages over the coming weeks.

In other news, you can now follow us on Twitter and on Facebook, so if you’re in to using either of those sites then come and join us on those pages for all our up to date news, as well as our random thoughts about guitars, rock, tea and sofas.

Back in the studio!

Yes…after a short (ish) break to allow for Taz to recover from giving birth (it was a boy by the way!) Ultraxine are hitting the rehearsal studio on 19th December for the first time since August.  There will be much rocking, rolling, rehearsing, and no doubt general plotting for the recording of the “Danger of Death” EP.  Stay tuned for news!

Gig Time

Eek, it’s May already – time flies when you’re having fun!

We’ve been up to lots recently – including some very big news (but that’s for later!) and practicing and writing like practicing and writing demons (if ever there was such a thing), and booking some Summertime gigs!

The first gig we’re happy to announce is that we’re playing at the fabulous Burning Brighton Bash – which looks like it will be our last gig of the summer.  So if you’re up for a bit of a laugh, some Brighton Rock (both sweet and rocking!), some happy times and some fundraising for a very deserving cause, please come and support us and all of the other bands on the bill – it looks like it’s going to be an absolute corker!

We’re so happy to be playing this festival – as it’s been set up in honour of a great friend and music lover, who sadly passed away in recent times.  But it’s excellent to see that her love of music and of bringing people together is living on!

For further details please visit our Gigs page.

And now for the reason that it will be our last gig for a wee while – at this gig, Taz will be 8 months pregnant! Lets hope that all those bass frequencies and rocking out don’t persuade her baby to want to come and join the fun at the gig..!

We will be taking a little time out so that Taz (and her husband Paul) can enjoy the fruits of their, er, labour.  And teach the baby some harmonies!

That’s it for now – we’ll have some more gig dates for you soon though.  Keeeeeeeep rocking!
