[thisquietarmy / TQA Records]

Hi,

Just thought I should update you guys about the happenings - especially for those not following the real time updates on facebook, twitter, instagram & such. 

It's been 3 weeks since I've been back from the Europe-Japan-Europe tour and it all went smoothly. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who made the tour possible and to everyone who manage to attend. As always, it was a blast - met some lovely people & bands everywhere. During these last 6 weeks, I traveled 40,000 km to play in Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Holland, Italy & Japan. 

Incubate in Tilburg, NL was one of the best festivals I've played. Skylinereviews even including me twice in their top 10 of Incubate alongside with Goat, Wovenhand, Thee Silver Mt. Zion, Krallice & Nadja, which was really nice. The shows in Berlin, Toulouse, Marseille, Rome, Innsbruck, Ghent were highlights of the European parts of the tour while Japan was a completely surreal experience in itself, and I specifically have Archaique Smile & Tokyo Jupiter Records to thank for that. You can check a video of my full set at WARP in Tokyo on Oct. 19th here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-63DJsdwt1o
