SISSY HITS IN YOUR EARS AND SHOPS
I just realised that we haven’t done an “official” announcement of this yet, shame on us for being so goshdarned lazy. You may have read this elsewhere, but here’s the facts as they stand with a personalised spin on it… SISSY HITS: COMING VIA HOLY ROAR IN APRIL/MAY Our mini album ‘Sissy Hits’ will be released in late April or early May by the fantastic...

David's Peculiar and Uncalled For Hip-Hop Update
I checked out the FOOD FOR ANIMALS debut LP Belly after reading their review on Pitchfork today and all i can mostly say is “WOW”. It’s essentially a very slickly produced, messed-up noise album with rapping over it and it makes my brain jump into the sea and drown itself. Lovely stuff. S’NICE. david x
EUROPE MINUS SCOTLAND = BETTER
today! i got given a £60 limit on dinner alone.. me and graham ordered VEAL and PORK SPECIALS.. YOU HAVE NO IDEA just how DECADENT this was. we had fruit beer, that they dont even consider special, and were were SCREAMING THE PLACE DOWN with JOY! we’re in holland, so everyone who works in places (shops, restaurants etc.) is stoned out their boxes. and everyone east of france is hotter than...
MEGA PARTY UPDATE
David says we should update the blog but I’ve not done anything other than sleep a lot, piss about on Jockrock and watch ‘The Wire’ lately. Tonight I finished season one of the wire and ate most of a jar of nutella with a spoon. Now I’m drinking my umpteenth cup of coffee, smoking my umpteenth roll-up cigaretteand wondering how the hell I’m going to survive...

Big Tour, Big Fun!
England is getting well Dana’d in March. More dates of a very special variety once they’re confirmed… In the meantime I’d just like to say that I have been known to pretend to be homophobic in order to make gay people uncomfortable. LOL ~james x
Kill Tone
I have been known to pretend i’m gay in order to make homophobes uncomfortable. There is nothing to report in Dananananaykroyd world, other than this simple fact of the day.
WatchThis is us playing our brand new long version of ‘Infinity Milk’. We hope you like it because we MAED IT AT THE PRACTUSE and James’ sleeves went missing. Love, CalUMMMM BAWWWW

Sissy Hits
People may be wondering why there’s no news regarding our EP or why we haven’t said ‘yes’ to anyone who has asked to put it out as of yet (especially considering a ‘leaked’ copy got a 10 out of 10 review on Drowned In Sound a week or so back). Well, we haven’t all just died or ran off screaming all of a sudden, we’re actually just trying to work out...
Sissy Hits - The Indie 'Extraordinary Machine'?
Hahaha I was just reading the Drowned in Sound site there and perusing the comments about Sissy Hits being shelved. Aside from wanting to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone who’s been giving it big noise about the situation on the forums etc, and Daniel Ross for the insane review (hell it made me want to buy it until I remembered that I don’t have to…) I’d like to extend a personal thank you to...
ITT, Calum talks to God; God turns out to be a bit...
Me: Do you like my band, Dananananaykroyd? God: I don’t know your band Dananananaykroyd. Me: Well you can check out our Myspace if you want. God: Interesting. No I don’t think I can do it. Me: How come? Are you using Linux or something? God: Reductionism. Or something. My software works on any operating system, but Linux is the most reliable. Me: Oh, so you’re choosing...
'Sissy Hits' EP unfortunately gone the same way as...
LAME IMPORTANT ANNOUCEMENT: Our EP has been cancelled due to financial dissarray at Jealous Records towers. We are trying to find somewhere else to release it. Sit tight and listen to Slipknot or something in lieu of Sissy Hits. STAY STRONG! DAN
WatchThe Greater Than Symbol and the Hash live at Ginglik, West London. Produced by Truffle Pictures, Directed/Edited by Toby Barnett. Apologies for Calums spitting, he wouldn’t do that in his own house you know.
DATES AND FRESH (side-project) MUSICS
We’re making like a band and going on tour! Go look at our myspace page (which in case you’re unawares is www.myspace.com/dananananaykroyd - pretty self-explanatory) and see our growing list of English March tour dates!

i was going to fall out with this band for sacking the genius that is chris pennie. then i heard this. all is forgiven and forgotten. especially when you consider what they do before it all breaks down and goes all quiet. JBJ x
