OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE TO SUPPORT ANTHRAX

London and Oxford - Obsessive Compulsive supporting AnthraxKicking off 2012 with a bang, Obsessive Compulsive have been asked to join ANTHRAX on their only two headline UK dates in March, the shows are at Islington Academy, London, which is already SOLD OUT and Oxford O2 Academy which has just a few tickets left on sale.

 

Pete from OC said “We are honoured to be playing these shows, Anthrax are an absolutely legendary band, we can’t wait!” – OC are also playing a show in Manchester on February 15th supporting the incredible LYDIA LUNCH, and joining their friends FALLING RED for a show in their hometown of Carlisle on February 25th. Watch this space for more gig dates to be announced shortly.



More OC tour dates!

We’re super chuffed to announce that we are going to be doing a whole load more tour dates before the year is out! British heavy metal legends WOLFSBANE have personally asked that we come out on tour with them as their main support in November and December, all the dates are now on our gig page with links to buy tickets, these shows are gonna be AWESOME, really hope you can make it along to one or more of them!

We have also been added to the bill for Hard Rock Hell V “Village of the Damned” so if you alreayd have tickets to that (it’s completely sold out!) make sure you catch us at 5pm sharp on the 2nd stage! RAWK!



Man Vs Machine Artwork For Sale!!!

Obcom at Download festival

Coming soon! The brand new video for Man Vs Machine, making the video was a labour of love, we built the room ourselves over a few days in a warehouse in North Manchester and then the incredible CARP came to stay with us for a few days and painted it up in his own unique style.  We then shot the live footage in this, our very own CARP room with the awesome VIDEO INK who then added some brilliant footage of the misery of the rat race, all based around CARP’s artwork and the lyrics of the song.  We’re really proud of this video, please check it out when it hits youtube in a week or so and share it everywhere and anywhere you see fit, in the meantime look out for it on SCUZZ and request them to play it too!

 

We are selling the artwork from the MAN VS MACHINE video, this is an awesome, rare opportunity for fans, basically each piece is a whopping 4 foot by 4 foot on 1 inch thick chipboard painted by CARP, numbered, signed by the artist and the band, completely one of a kind pieces of art and OC history. Some of the art is sold already, the rest is up for grabs, each piece is £80 and you get a free promo CD of Man Vs Machine too, also signed by the band and unavailable elsewhere, only 50 of these exist anywhere in the world. Unfortunately as these are so heavy and huge they can’t really be posted, but they can be picked up from Manchester or any OC gig, we can also deliver locally, within reason, for petrol money, please contact oc_mania@hotmail.com to arrange this before buying!

 

 

These are completely one-off pieces of art, when they’re gone, they’re gone, only the lucky few will own a square!

 

If you can’t afford to buy one of these pieces never fear, CARP has also designed an outrageously cool limited edition Man Vs Machine T-shirt which is available to pre-order now in our shop, the first 10 people to order one of these get a free, excruciatingly limited Man Vs Machine promo single signed by the band.


Hitting the road again!

Obcom at Download festivalWe are hitting the road again for a handful of dates at the beginning of October!
 

We can’t wait to do a run of gigs again, we hope that lots of you will come out to support us, we’re still a small band and every single person that shows up to see us play means the world to us. Check out the gig page for details, we will be adding a few more shows to the list over the next week or so as well. See you at the front!
