Compilations

Whew, it’s been a while. There’s a released Frisk track on the latest double cd Amoeba Music compilation (#5!) available from the always ass-kicking Hip Hop Slam Recordsfor $6!

Coming up on our friends GC Records is a compilation with an… uh… acoustic version of “Leech”?!? The song’s from a KALX Live set, and the compilation is to benefit indymedia.org. We’re pretty sure that all of the tracks are exclusive/unreleased, so don’t hesitate when it comes out in mid-2005!

Finally, we’re still figuring out when our next shows will be, this site will be updated at that point. In the meantime, we’ll continue updating this with new info as it comes up. Rock on!

Townley for City Council

While writing for the new Frisk record is slow, Hunter is busy with the upcoming AFI record, Zac is busy with Shadowboxer, and Jesse is busy with running for office. There’s a darn good chance The Frisk will play at least one fundraiser for Jesse’s campaign. Shadowboxer is already planning on playing one of these shows because, well, they rock! Their new website is up in the links page, as is the official AFI page. We’re posting the Townley For Council fundraiser shows as they are confirmed on the “Calendar” page of:

What? An unreleased Frisk tune on the new Rock Against Bush Volume 1 compilation? You bet! The song “Basket of Snakes” was recorded during the “Audio Ransom Note” sessions and we decided to save it for a special occasion. We’re proud to be a part of the first “Rock Against Bush” compilation, check out it out here. Rock Against Bush
