Hey you fuckers! The Core Wars 2006 contest is going great! We've got four matches going on this week and the voting ends on Sunday at 9am CST. So if you haven't gone and checked it out - go to www.core-wars.com and vote today. You can listen to the bands and cast your vote for the one you dig the most. The contest will keep going on for weeks, until only one is left standing!

I'm hearing things are shaping up nicely for the big United Chaos Symposium show for next Saturday September 9th at the Interstate Center in Bloomington. Make sure you check out the "live brutality" page for more information about it. We go on at 6:45pm, but the show starts very early at 10am and will go until midnight. So you'll be hearing a lot of great bands. We're pumped about doing an all ages show in our hometown, so some of the younger Twelve Heads can come out for the brutalization.

The September edition of the Heavycore Chopping Block is posted now - so check it out and hear All Shall Perish, Bolt Thrower, Lividity, Armored Saint, Chrome Division, Destruction, Kreator, Mercyful Fate, Low Twelve, and more. It's wicked - in streaming mp3 format - www.ChoppingBlockShow.com

See you this weekend in the Brutality Report. Have a killer and SAFE Labor Day weekend! Say goodbye to the summer as Fall is coming up quick.
