 Hello!!! Matrak Attakk is going on tour again in August! In the meantime, Me and Py are going on tour in the basque country and Madrid with the reformed ORTIKA (ortika.bandcamp.com) and our Roman and Ellie are playing a weekend with KHLORE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEew0zw1ARw) and Migou left the band.
About his reasons, he said ' he had no time with other projects', honestly I can say in my own blog, that I am happy that he left. Nothing really bad happened, but I don't think that Matrak Attakk ethics, music and people, really fit him, nor he was really fitting in the band. I say this just because I'd like to normalize stuff like this happening : Sometimes people dont really fight but just, are not friends. And honestly I don't want to play with not friends anymore, and when people make you feel awkard and you just sense bad feelings, is just good that people split in ANY KIND OF RELATIONSHIP.
My, and I must say, our, only problem, is that we are not used to say to people to leave and we mostly leave or stay in those relationship.
So I can just say, thank you Migou for leaving on your own :)
Our extended collective, was already bringing Ellie from Khlore with us in August to Moldova and back!
And who is going to play with us in Aachen, for KRACHFEST in November, is a tba!
For now our Roman has been already promoted to guitar player :)





As you see from the tour poster, we need a place to play or sleep in Cluj or anywhere in between KOSICE and IASI !! Mail us at 
matrakattakk at gmail . com if you think you can help!

THE SOUTHERN AFRICA TOUR IS OVER!!!


we had a lot of fun, touristic moments (for once, many) weird moments and great moments. We discovered scenes and people we wouldnt have meet otherise. We met the local punks and metal heads, we heard different stories. We visited the apartheid museum, we ate in an ethiopian restaurant, we got asked for money really often, we slept in small hotels, big hotels, we climbed and had panic attacks, we saw many, many many animals. We met native people in Namibia, Koi Koi people speaking clock languages, we met local metal cowgirls and boys in Botswana, we slept at SkinFlint mansion in Geborone, we met lovely people and bands, we met bad people too, we spent days in aereoports and we risked a cancelation that we luckily  avoided . We met elephants, rhinos, springboks, squirrels, babboons, sealions (otaris), zebras, and many other animals. Check the pics on FB if you want more national geographic.

No, what we do is not easy, but what else should we do ;)?

thanks to all those that made this tour possible and the lovely people playing with us, organising, cooking and attending.

Always welcome on our side of the world.
