..from the GCF newsletter: “There have been rumours flying around the internet recently, and we can now confirm that DESA, the new band formed by members of Californian skacore band Link 80, will release a split CD with our very own HOWARDS ALIAS on GCF in March 2004. To coincide with the release, both bands will tour the UK as a split headline tour before they join RX Bandits (Drive Thru Records) as support for their UK tour in April. Desa will also head over to Europe with RX Bandits. The forthcoming CD will feature three tracks each from Desa and Howards Alias, and will be Howards Alias‘ first release since their debut album ‘The Chameleon Script’ in 2002. The tour dates will be on the web site soon, meanwhile check out Desa at www.desadesadesa.com and www.goodcleanfunrecords.co.uk”
