The show tonight at the Chengdu College of UESTC was canceled by administration due to the sensitivity of larger issues we are not free to speak of in this medium. After a careless move by singer Björk in Shanghai, many artists have been marginalized because of the tiers of authority that threaten various sources of funding. It is understood by the band and our management that their actions are reasonable, as they could be held accountable for anything that may happen accidentally or not. We accept this decision in light of security for the students and school administration.
PB will on the other hand prepare another show to redeem this tense moment on a later date. As information is established, everyone will be informed.
Thanks for the support and sorry for the short notice.

Thanks to everyone for coming out to the Hemp House yesterday. It was a lot of fun and it was good seeing familiar and unfamiliar faces. It was a great beginning for the next month and a half of shows.
Yesterday was the long anticipated secret-release of Poltergeist, a new concept album, featuring an over twenty-one minute odyssey of sounds and images followed by Dance of the Hanged Men of Salahoudin and a cinematic extended version of the first track. There is a video and a whole plethora of images available on the disc as well.
Limited edition picture discs are available for 50 RMB and can be purchased upon request. Mail to:
