25 TA LIFE ENDS IN APRIL 09/RICK TA LIFE TO FRONT OLC

After a number of years and thousands of dollars made bootlegging other bands CD's and merch (Cherem and Aftermath of a Trainwreck included) Rick Ta Life is calling it a day for seminal hardcore band 25 Ta Life. There will be one more tour that should wrap everything up in a nice little package later this spring. If you never saw them, you get one last chance.

And while Rick Ta Life will still have his King RTL/Infamous RTL hip hop project and clothing line—that is apparently not enough. Come springtime, he'll be fronting a new version of One Life Crew. Straight from the 25 Ta Life Myspace blog:
"YES ITS TRUE STOP EMAIL​ING ME

ME AND CHUBB​Y WILL TOUR
STEVE​ WILL BE WITH US IN SPRIT​ A REAL OLC OG

PREPA​RE FRUIT​S"

Hopefully this OLC tour (which many doubt will actually happen) will be accompanied by the new shirt design that both RTL and Chubby Fresh have worked up—OLC: Obama Lynchin' Crew.

This should all go extremely well. Hope they come here.

EDIT: Apparently, after he cut all his dreads off he was selling them—one by one—in a hand-made coffin, along with a picture of himself, for $125. This has not been 100% confirmed, but I think we can all just assume it's true.

Congratulations to the only undefeated team in college football this season—the University of Utah Utes.

The Utah Utes have all of college football shaking its head in amazement.

UNDYING TAKES IT

By a whopping margin of 11 votes, Undying has taken the Best Female Fronted Hardcore Punk Band Poll.  Figures as much since Undying also placed high in the Bands That Salt Lake Kids Appreciate More Than Other Cities Poll.  Too bad the band could not live up to its name.  Salt Lake reunion show?
