Press Info:
The past year has been an absolute disaster for nearly everyone on this planet. We’ve seen our local pubs, restaurants, businesses, culture initiatives and events struggling from the measurements that were taken by our governments due to the coronavirus. It’s undeniable that the virus has already been responsible for many deaths around the world. Experts and scientists are working around the clock to find a solution to stop the virus and cure the illness that it brings, but unfortunately this alone is not enough.

In the media there is way too little attention devoted to the “side effects” this virus can cause, one side effect being “mental health problems”. Many people in our direct and indirect environment are struggling from it, sometimes visibly, sometimes invisibly. Statistics show that the global suicide rate in 2020 has drastically risen compared to previous years, this is something that cannot be ignored.

After many encounters with people that are suffering from mental health problems, we became extra aware about this issue and we wanted to contribute in some way. Unfortunately we are not experts ourselves in this matter, but luckily there are other people/organizations who are. These people/organizations are often underfunded and that’s where we can contribute.

We are launching a various artist release (digital + CD) to fund “De Zelfmoordlijn”, a Belgium-based organization that is committed to helping anyone that is in need. People that are looking for a chat, people with suicidal thoughts or even people who know someone that is in need for help, can chat or call with volunteers from the organization 24/7, every day of the year. For a duration of 12 months we will be donating 50% of the total revenue of this release directly to them at the end of each month, starting in April. The other 50% will be used to cover the expenses of the release and will help us to keep providing you with banging releases and hopefully events in the future!

Special thanks to all the artists, our designer Worthmann and everyone else that was involved in this project.

We can push through this together!
