"If Anette Funicello and Glen Danzig of the Misfits had a baby, it would be The Demonics". One part Misfits, one part Ramones, one part Beach Boys, and a whole bunch more parts like EVIL and FUN, The Demonics have 3 full length albums and a bunch of singles; recorded by original trio Russ Wright, Dez Mabunga and Courtney Callahan. The lovely Amy Cesari has since taken over the throne, Dez Mabunga is still in the mix, with Russ Wright and Joe Miller on guitar.
"These boys know how to lay down a good tune, take Super Bee for example. It flat out rips! And for All you Evel Kneivel fans out there, American Icon is a definate must hear. For the gearheads and the girl-chasers out there, you gotta pick yourself up a copy of this record (Formaldehyde Injection). And you know that they know what they are singing about because the lead singer built up a 1969 Dodge Super Bee and races it a Sears Point Raceway. Rock and Roll the way it should be played!" -A Music fan
"THE DEMONICS all new 3rd full length record Ritual On The Beach is dripping with tremendously catchy melodies, upbeat dragpunk riffs and references and to the Californian lifestyle. It´s a evil JAN & DEAN beach party gone wrong with guest appearances by Wholly Smokes (MIKE FOX of the DWARVES fame) and legendary underground garage rocker NIKKI CORVETTE doing a duette with Russ on a demonic version of her song Girls Like Me. The album is an unpretentious blast down the waves & highway to hell!The unbelievable artwork matching the theme is done by Montreals most famous underground artist DIRTY DONNY.
When Russ isn´t burnin´out in his cherry´69 metallic green Super Bee, he´s toes to the nose on a six footer down at Pacifica Beach or bombin´the hills on his Sector 9 board. This is the perfect soundtrack for anyones summer.. SURFS UP MOTHERFUCKERS !! SO GET IN !" -www.aliensnatch.de

1. The peaceful buddhist country of Tibet was invaded by Communists China in 1949. Since that time, over 1.2 million out of 6 Tibetans have been killed, over 6000 monastaries have been destroyed, and thousands of TIbetans have been imprisoned.
2. In Tibet today, there is no freedom of speech, religion, or press and arbitrary dissidents continue.
3. The Dalai Lama, Tibet’s political and spiritual leader, fled to India in 1959. He now lives among over 100,000 other Tibetan refugees and their government in exile.
4. Forced abortion, sterilization of Tibetan women and the transfer of low income Chinese citizens threaten the survival of Tibet’s unique culture. In some Tibetan provinces, Chinese settlers outnumber Tibetans 7 to 1.
5. Within China itself, massive human rights abuses continue. It is estimated that there up to twenty million Chinese citizens working in prison camps.
6. Most of the Tibetan plataeu lies above 14,000 feet. Tibet is the source of five of Asia’s greatest rivers, which over 2 billion people depend upon. Since 1959, the Chinese government estimates that they have removed over $54 billion worth of timber. Over 80% of their forests have been destroyed, and large amoutns nuclear and toxic waste have been disposed of in Tibet.
7. Despite these facts and figures, the US government and US corporations continue to support China economically. This shows their blatant lack of respect for these critical issues of political and religious freedom and human rights.
Yes, things are bad, but you may still ask, why Tibet? There are hundreds of other countries in which equal or worse environmental and human rights devistation has occured. Why Tibet? Tibet can be used as the catalyst for change in human rights, womens rights, political, religious and cultural freedom across the globe.
