D.O.A. is going strong again! Working on new studio album & World Tour for 2015 For Immediate Release: September 23, 2014; D.O.A., Canada\u0092s most politically astute, controversial and always wildly entertaining band is back. The godfather of hardcore Joe Shithead Keithley, had announced his retirement back in 2012 to take a run at formal politics in his native British Columbia. That is out the window and D.O.A. is all set to come back with a vengeance. <\/p>\n \u0093When I lost my nomination by five votes, I was pissed,\u0094 says Keithley, \u0093but I soon realized that I had not forgotten how to write songs, how to sing and play guitar and how to kick ass up on stage! So I am ramping up D.O.A. again and we\u0092re going to let our street politics tell the stories about what\u0092s really happening!\u0094<\/p>\n D.O.A., the Men of Action have a ballsy new lineup featuring the additions of Paddy Duddy on drums (Circle The Wagons, Rusty Nails) and Mike Hodsall on bass (Circle The Wagons) They are starting work on a new studio album (their 16th) that will be out March 2015 and are making plans to tour the world, which will include Europe, North America, South America Japan and China (for the 3rd time!). <\/p>\n This fall D.O.A. will the road on their True North Strong and Free tour that will support of their latest album Welcome To Chinatown, a 28 song live classic. The D.O.A. tour will take the band through Ontario and Quebec before heading back west for dates in Alberta and B.C. The dates in Ontario will be sponsored by Beau\u0092s All Natural Brewing, who created Hardcore 8.1 Malt Liquor in tribute to the band. http:\/\/www.suddendeath.com\/ <\/p>\n D.O.A.

Fans around the world have always proclaimed for the last 35 years that D.O.A. is one of the greatest and one of the most exciting live bands ever, the Welcome to Chinatown album backs that up in a big way.<\/p>\n
The brewery states that \u0093Beau\u0092s created Hardcore 8.1 to pay tribute to an iconic band we revere: Vancouver\u0092s D.O.A., true pioneers and 35+ year veterans of the hardcore punk scene.\u0094 It\u0092s the only certified organic malt liquor in the world. The beer will be available at all Ontario D.O.A. shows. No doubt, D.O.A. will be pulling out all the stops at their live shows, including their punk-i-fied version of Roll Out The Barrels, where they will invite the audience up to try and polish off a entire bomber bottle of Hardcore 8.1 in a single go on stage. www.beaus.ca <\/p>\n
