Eulogy act Calico System is calling it a day. The band made the announcement via MySpace:

Reasons? You want reasons? I don’t have to explain myself to you!! But I’ll sum it up by saying that it just didn’t make sense to remain a band anymore. Music rules, but the music BUSINESS sucks and had taken its toll on all of us.

NO, you cannot find the CD anywhere. We’re not happy about it either (biting tongue…) because we’re really proud of the fucking thing! Good thing there’s internet downloading!

The band most recently released Outside are the Vultures.

According to some information from Fat’s European office, the label’s second favorite band, NOFX is aiming for early 2008 for the upcoming live album. The disc will be the second live album from the veteran punk act, with the previous, I Heard They Suck Live, released nearly twelve years ago – before our reviews editor Brian was even born.

The record is apparently being assembled with recordings from a number of stops internationally as the band circles the globe visiting countries like China, South Africa, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia and others.

They released Wolves in Wolves’ Clothing in 2006.
