our music is influenced by DIY artists from all over the world and perhaps the most by the following bands: paint it black, kid dynamite, trial by fire, give up the ghost, lifetime, nerve agents, none more black, good riddance, intensity, leftöver crack, crass, against all authority, nine.

OUR LATEST RELEASE, a SPLIT-DIGIPAK-CD together with the incredible ATTACK! VIPERS! is now available for the uk and parts of the european mainland (further distribution in progress!) for now, if you're located on the mainland, you can order it right here through our myspace or you can buy it on one of our upcoming shows. for UK-distribution, please check out WE HEART RECORDS!
blasting out of a dirty basement's rehearsal room there comes the
straight forward punkrock sound of austria's very own ASTPAI. think of
paint it black meets kid dynamite meets none
more black, never lacking a sense in melody and sing-a-longs. this
heavy rocking hardcore/punk sound comes along with strong political
views and offers some new ideas without just presenting shallow paroles
and drained statements. this young band managed to release 3 full length
releases in the past and is now holding their strongest release to date
in hands called corruption concealed (under deceptive slogans),
released by rise
or rust records for austria, fond of life records for the rest of europe and jump start records for the us. after a busy year of 2008 including a 5 weeks tour along the east coast of the usa and a 3 week tour throughout western european parts and the uk, ASTPAI just put out their latest recordings as one half of a split-cd-release(digipak!) with uk's very own attack! vipers! from portsmouth through we heart records for the uk and laserlife records for parts of the european mainland. further distribution in progress! recordings for a 3rd full length album are scheduled for early 2009 as well as more touring both east- and westwards.
