MILLENCOLIN NEWS FEBRUARY 2007
Hey.
It's winter up here in Sweden, wierd kind of winter...
You might think we've just been slacking around because you haven't heard from us in a while but that's wrong.
Both Nikola (solo) and Mathias (Franky Lee) have released an album each.
You should really check them out. They have tourdates, some songs & other info up on their websites/myspace. Great stuff!

Erik is putting together his artwork-company Eckhouse Design, doing some art/photo jobs and planning the last filming details for the sequel to "...Hi8 Adventures" DVD.
No release date on the DVD yet though.
I've recorded some stuff with my hardcore/crust band Kvoteringen. A CD/LP is on the way (should be out late Feb) plus acouple of split 7" and stuff. We'll do some shows as well this year.
If you're into the harder type of punk you can listen to us at our myspace.
Regarding the Millencolin myspace, Erik and Bebba-Thrash made a brand new kick-ass look on it so go there and check it out.

We also took over the http://www.purevolume.com/millencolin recently (Epitaph managed it before, thanks!) and we will also "pimp" that up and put up more/other songs and photos and stuff.
We will of course also start working on a new MILLENCOLIN album.
There are a lot of ideas and we're very exited about making a fucking great album.
We'll also do a few festival appearances during the summer before starting the recording process.
Check http://www.millencolin.com and/or http://www.myspace.com/millencolin for posted dates later on!

MILLENCOLIN MUSIC PRIZE 2006!
Millencolin Music Prize is recently founded by the city of rebro. Local politicians saw one of our shows a year ago and decided to create an award in our name since they think we are good ambassadors for our home town. The prize of 25 000 SEK and a trophy designed by Erik is handed out to a artist, group, club or somebody who's done something great for the music scene of rebro the past year.
The first winner of the annual prize are Andreas Skogmo and his crew District 19 who keeps putting up great punk and HC shows which really keeps the underground music scene strong in rebro.
Nikola also performed at the party! Good times!
So, there you go. Lots of stuff going on as you can see.
Thanks again for supportin'!
Larzon & the Millen dudes.
