2011-05-13 00:21:43Grab a chair. We just uploaded two brand new tracks on our Bandcamp as a preview for our upcoming release 'REPENT. REPEAT'. Go and check it out here. Lyrics are online as well. As soon as the artwork is available we'll send it to the vinyl press, we expect it to be ready around the beginning of June. To celebrate this release we'll be doing a show on the first of June at the ACU with New Morality and the Straight A's who will be doing a one time reunion in their original line-up. Take a look at this flyer made by Boy, we're selling a screen print for a few bucks at the show. Unfortunately, there's a big chance the new record won't be available by then but we'll surely play some new stuff!
The Verve Crusade is available on CD in the U.S. too, released by Get Outta Town Records, so go check it out! A big hug to Charles, he doesn't know how much we appreciate his efforts! We're working on a U.S. tour as well, but more info about that in a few weeks.
Next week we're going to release the artwork and two more tracks on Bandcamp, so be on the lookout. We'll be doing a few shows in Austria and Germany as well and don't forget to check out two new shirt design in our new webstore.
Upcoming shows:
May. 20 - Sub, Graz
May. 21 - Triebwerk, Wiener Neustadt

May. 28 - 'T Lintfabriek, Kontich w/ Pushed too far, Accept the change

END OF AN ERA
2010-12-01 00:21:43Here's a long awaited update to let you know where you can find us the next couple of weeks and with whom. Because unfortunately, and some of you may already know this, Mark is leaving This Routine is Hell. Amongst other reasons, he just couldn't give the band the time and energy we all agreed it needs and we had to conclude it was for the best if we looked for another bass player.
We will reveal our newest addition on the 3rd of december, at Antillectual's release party in Nijmegen. This will be Mark's last show, and whoever wins the mosh championship will get to play bass in This Routine is Hell. Musical skills aren't needed, just a good swing in the arm.
Anyway, all you delinquents in the North / West have to come to the following shows:
17 dec - North of France, get in touch!
18 dec - Clermont-Ferrand, France
19 dec - Barcelona, Spain
20 dec - Levens (near Nice), France
21 dec - Vicenza, Italy
22 dec - Trento, Italy
23 dec - Tubingen, Germany
24 dec - Meppel, Netherlands
We're working on a new release but we're not sure yet whether it will be another full length or something completely different. Recording dates are pretty much set around February and we'll keep you updated on the progress. In the meanwhile, we'll post a new set of lyrics with each update.
"Here's to the blackest of days and self-destructive ways.
It's a fling, a small time thing.
Contemplating the beauty of a desperate man,
No hard task for a spirited mind.
There's a certain romance to be found in loneliness.
Once so young and filled with vivid dreams.
All hopes and small time things.
Livelihood had parted, our wits outsmarted.
And sometimes love, mistakenly gave us wings."
See you in December,
- This Routine is Hell
MEMORIES ARE HAUNTING ME
2010-07-14 11:23:37Be amazed by our new website and engulf yourself in this new and strange world. Throw away your free time and rejoice, we have -yet again- gone out to explore the world. Stoked kids and big road trips. We will pass by France, Germany, Poland and Slovakia to play with some awesome bands. Also, we have one or two new songs to share with you this tour, don't miss out!
Our last tour in February was a blast! And Tom took about 200+ photo's, check them out here, they're filed under the Feb 2010 Euro tour gallery.
Our debut album 'the Verve Crusade' is still up for free download and for sale at the Shield. The limited red vinyl is, unfortunately, sold out in our distro but still available at the Shield.
"Blood runs through the offices and fire's what we breath.
We write the poetry of the dead with every word we type.
Remarks are made.
Heads turn away.
They prefer to stay.
Behind gritted teeth the truth bears its true form.
Fed by our most deep and profound hate, it procreates.
You'll shiver at what you can find inside."
