The band is flying for the first time to Cuiabá [MT] where happens the annual Calango Festival, which has revealed great indie Brazlian bands. For a while, Plastique Noir warms up on the third edition of Panela RockFestival, in Fortaleza.
Since the launching of our first official album by Pisces Records (Sao Paulo, BR), it's for sale in the label's site and through the famous Brazilian book store Livraria Cultura.
But some fans (specially those not-Brazilian ones) were having troubles about the links above, because their shop pages are completely in portuguese.
To dissolve that problem, we have just made a deal with Wave Records, that will distribute DEAD POP for online ordering in thelabel's site (listen to some samples in the last link and order your CD in SHOP feature) and also for local sale in other countries (first in Europe) as soon as possible.
Our friendly acknowledgements to Alex Twin, Wave Records' manager and member of the bands 3 Cold Men (BR/FR) and Wintry (BR/DE)!
