Commented vocalist Timo "Galzi" Kallio: "In the middle of our songwriting sessions, we woke up to reality that there still was no papers signed and no deal done for our second album... we had just turned down offers this far. There were a few labels we wanted deal with; the only problem was none of them knew it at the time! The most thing was, that we wanted to communicate as friends in order to make some business and not to deal with corporate-office-somebody and make business at any cost." More...
Dead Shape Figure Announces New Years Eve Show

Dead Shape Figure Enlists New Bassist
Dead Shape Figure has issued the following statement about recruiting a new bass player:
"Dead Shape Figure has found a new bass player... phhhh.... We actually didn't even search a new bass player we just called to our old friend Ere and asked if he has any interest of being a worthless piece of s.... a bass player in DSF and after the call maybe 2h later Ere was in our rehearsal room learning the new songs and jamming like a mofo. It's so much easier to deal with an old friend rather than bringing in a bunch of strangers into the auditions and first explain them how DSF rolls, then see if they can play anything and finally when the band thinks that this guy is the one they realize that he is actually a cunt when he drinks over 6 beers and starts to really annoy everyone and then at some point he will tell the band that how ridiculous is the fact that the band is paying their own plane tickets and not the label when they are leaving on tour and how his girlfriend thinks this and that and blaablaablaa...
"A little bit of over exaggerating maybe... But from an experience we thought that this is the best idea... And we have really missed Ernos scence of sarcasm in the rehearsal space. Oh, and for you who dont know: Erno played guitar in DSF during 2004-2008. Other news:
We have a studio booked for this year and we are almost ready with the pre-production... We are gonna unleash all the details about the new album next month." More...
