Mike TV

It's the end of things as we know it... yep, the end of the year, the end of the world and even the end of your Mike TV love after that click bait title. We're not gonna hold you up for too long... just got a couple of things to tell you about!

You can download our whole discography (that's nine releases including the Pickled Dick era) for only £10.40 right here. Sausage Hospital is also currently only £3 to download and to buy on CD. Ideal shit Xmas presents for the ones you hate.

That's it - we'll do some stuff in 2016 at some point!

PS: Remember how great we are by watching this video!

Hello chums... check out this delightful behind the scenes video from our Myoclonic Jerk video. We’ll be back soon with some shows and maybe some new tunes. In the meantime, buy Sausage Hospital on CD, download it from Bandcamp or iTunes and buy stuff from our shop.

Hey friends, we made a new video for our song Myoclonic Jerk! Hooray, we hear you say. It’s really fucking good and you’re definitely gonna love it. Massive thanks to Ian, Alex and all their crew for the hard work. They rule. 

You can download the song for free here, buy the CD for a bit more than free here and we’re on tour next month with Frenzal Rhomb. Dates here.

Power update. 

1) Been making a rad music video for the song 'Myoclonic Jerk.' It's gonna be fucking belting, we tell thee. Should be up in the next couple of weeks. Here's us on set.

2) You can still buy our album 'Sausage Hospital' for only £5 here.

3) We're off on tour soon with Frenzal Rhomb (well it's 4 shows, that's enough). We also have a show in Petersfield which you need to come to. Details here.

4) if any distros wanna stock our album, then get in touch with [email protected] - BONZER.

5) Check this interview Jhon did with Forked Tongues about being a brilliant vegan / Frenzal tour, here.

5) BYE.

6) Bass drum skin by Mister Black. Hooray.

Yep.

What the title says, we're going on tour with Frenzal Rhomb. Superfuckinghappy about this. If you didn't know, I (being Jhon) named my dog Frenzal, so as you can tell, we don't hate their music and their influence has been a massive one on both how we sound and err how we sound. Let's hope they appreciate our set of Frenzal covers. Book some tickets. 

The last time I (still Jhon) tried to see Frenzal at The Underworld, it was 1999 and in my teenage haze (far too inebriated), we couldn't find Camden, let alone The Underworld. We were in a car (Domb was there too), it was pre-Sat Nav, can we be forgiven please? Baggy trousers & buckets in the bath.

Here's the poster. Fuck yeah.

Not content with booking just this, we have also booked a show in Petersfield for the end of March. Here's the event. Poster below by Mister Black. Not Scientologists & DeeCracks are playing too. Pop-punk bliss.

Not content with playing real live concerts, you can pick up our amazing album 'Sausage Hospital' for only £5 while stocks last (we have cuntloads) right here. You can also download it for the same price. 

Summarise, we're supporting Frenzal Rhomb, playing a hometown show and making you buy our album. If you have any issues with this, then who cares as we're setting off for The Underworld now. Can't miss two gigs there (actually 3, we broke down trying to support Cobra Skulls). 

Cheers!

PS1: We're making a new music video. Should be up in the next month. 

PS2: You can't please everyone.

Yo,

So, even though we haven't been playing shows, we have been busy little boys behind the scenes. Ready for a run down?

90s Teenager Music Video:

Our mate, Ben Mills, over at Practical Creative has made us a rad new music video for 90s' Teenager. Watch it below and share the fuck out of it. Well done. Thanks Ben! And yes, that's us as 90s' Teenagers during the solo. FML ETC.

Christmas Sausage Discount Code:

As you well know, it's nearly Christmas, so we've been super kind and given you 20% off in OUR SHOP for the whole of December. Just use the code 'CHRISTMASSAUSAGE' when you check out. No need to thank us, just remember the baby Jesus in your prayers.

Bart Simpson & Red Ranger Talk Sausage!

Bart & Red are massive Mike TV fans and insisted on making a video to promote the album for us. You can hear them discuss what each track is about, a sample of every song plus some live footage & fucking about. Enjoy. Thanks to Simon Crates for being a sex angel.

Part 1:

Part 2:

Sausage Hospital:

I listened to the album again yesterday. It's really fucking good. If you haven't done so yet, you can stream it on Spotify. After you agree with me/us that it's all killer and no sausage filler, then you can download it from iTunes/Bandcamp (or buy the CD with your 20% discount). Banquet Records are also selling it!

The album is also out on Japan via Thistime Online and we've been getting radio play out there, which is lovely. Thanks Japan! Here's our mate, Sat, buying the album in Shibuya. His nose is bigger than mine. Maybe.

Shows & next year: 

We are aiming to play a few shows next year, so watch out for that. We won't be playing all the time because we have jobs that we need to do because punk rock doesn't pay the bills. So, when we do play a show, get your arses there. If you wanna book us anywhere in the world, mail [email protected]. Ta! Also, we'll have another new music vid early next year along with a special release of the album (hopefully).

That's it! Thanks for reading! Have a lovely festive time!

Thanks to Fuji for sending these pics through of the Sausage Hospital display in Tower Records, Shibuya, Japan. Pick up a copy via Thistime right here. How fucking exciting! 

The good men at Banquet Records back in Blighty have just stocked the album too... pick up a copy here. And of course, you can buy it from us. 

Last but not least, we've also been put on this sweet download comp in the U.S.. go listen to all these cool bands. Including Bracket. Yes to Bracket! 

SAUSAGE HOSPITAL IS OUT IN JAPAN!

Our lovely friend, Em, sent us these pictures from Tower Records today! It's looking boss (we don't know what that means). Massive thanks to Fuji from Thistime/Powerpop Academy for releasing it. If you want to buy it and you live in Japan, go to HMV/Tower/Disk Union. Or you can order it HERE! If you live in the U.K, buy it here. 

Don't forget, we now have trucker caps in our online store. 

We have some new videos coming your way soon too...

We'll probably play a show or two in 2015...

This is rather good news, isn't it? And we're off to Belgium this weekend to play some punk rock shows!
