We are marching on in fields of arrogance
We stray away from deliverance
Our silly jokes won't heal our burdened souls
And every time we carry all this weight
Every time we feel so much betrayed
A bird in a cage will show us where's our rage

Let's laugh to death, this is our time
Stand up and sing this simple rhyme
Let's scream our lungs out, it's never late
We are the ones to choose our fate

We are a couple of hours before the Resurrection...
The perfect timing for a blog update!
We have a bunch of shows coming up.
Starting from Volos city next Friday. The poster is awesome isn't it?

Bill from Jerboa Illustrations designed it. He is taking care of our new t-shirt design, as well.
Patras, Athens, Serres and Aigio coming next.
We are also confirmed for the Comeback Kid concert in mid June.
More shows to be announced soon.

What else?
Yes, I almost forgot it. We gave 4 interviews during the last 2 weeks, so we are gonna be featured in the following fanzines / webzines: Nowhere fanzine #1 (run by our friend Lydia), No Exit fanzine #4 (another friend, Bak, is taking care of it), Hardboiled webzine (based in Italy), Rebuild fanzine #2 (thanks to Jelena from Novi Sad, Serbia).
We are also featured in the most well known extreme sports website of Greece called The Spot. Here's the link: http://www.thespot.gr/content/view/2495/53/
Btw, we created a reverbnation account yesterday night. It seems cool...

That's all I guess.

Yeap, we have been added to this show that will take place in Thessaloniki (Polytechnic University) this Friday. It's a benefit show for the political prisoners in Greece, and we are sharing the stage with 3 of Salonica's most well known bands; Bad Movies, Bad Trip and Old School Rednex. The poster is already made and printed, so that's why you cannot read My Turn on it.
It'll be our first time in Thessaloniki; can't wait.
We are gonna do a re-print of our CDr for those 2 upcoming shows. 30 cps will be ok, I guess.
Some new stickers are almost ready, as well.
Love,
MT

My senses tell me to hold on to this / no matter what they say I will never cease
My senses tell me to hold on to this / it's the reason why I still exist 

-Some of you already know that we played as not so special guests in the Eternal Hated / All Around Heroes / Chaos Reign show, the previous wednesday. We had fun, and so you did. Awesome, thanks.
-We can't wait for the Saturday's show in Komotini. We are sharing the stage with our dear friends Vodka Juniors and the brave new kids Bad Bid. A. used to study in Komotini (tens of years ago, when he was young) and he still has friends there so this adds more excitement to his feelings. Moreover, I dunno if the rest of us have ever been in Komotini in their whole lives (except of Drossos, our session bassist, yeap we are missing S. for once again - fucking army). I think we are gonna start the trip on Friday and spend the night in Thessaloniki; what a better chance to meet old friends... Here's the poster designed by Re.Mono Designs.

-Our buttons are ready. Get yours asap. Only 100cps available. Moreover, Billy Jerboa Illustrations is taking care of our new t-shirt... It's gonna be available in a couple of weeks, I guess.

-We have a new song that kicks ass. It's called The Reason and we dare to say that it's emotional enough to make you doubt about our hardcore-ness (sic). You can read some of the lyrics above.
-We are gonna be featured in Rebuild hardcore fanzine issue 2, based in Serbia. Jelena was kind enough to send us some cool questions. Can't wait to get the printed material in our hands. Also, Bak / No Exit fanzine from Greece just sent us a bunch of interesting q's that we are gonna answer to this week. We chase fame.
Hugs,

-Katarameno Syndromo crew created a fuckin' awesome / freakin' yeah podcast, including 'This World' by My Turn. Copy the following link to your browser and feel free to enjoy a cup of tea or roll a joint* and listen to it: http://kataramenosyndromo.com/2011/03/15/podact/

-We had a rehearsal on Monday featuring Drossos from Bandage and it went very well. We'd like to inform you that Drossos is helpin' us out as a session bassist for some shows (the ones that S. cannot join in because of the fucking army). We have a new song called 'A bitter smile', if you care.

-We have 3 shows coming up, check out the list on your right. All of them are in the countryside, and we are very happy about it; time for roadtrips again. Also, there's a kinda of a big show that will take place in Athens this June; more information soon, because we are collectively thinking a bit of the details...

-The image above is the design of the first My Turn button ever, that will be available anytime soon, ltd to 100 cps. It was done by the mastermind called Ultra Grim Disign. PMA stands for Positive Mental Attitude.

*How more open-minded can a hardcore band -feat. 3 straight edge members- be? We are here to provoke everything and everybody, never forget this.

It's been a long time since we last updated this blog...
To be honest, we were a bit bored to update a fucking faceless shit, but since we are all staring at a PC screen for a quite a few hours every day, I decided to write some things down, while I'm listening to Perfect Future.
So, life is hell but who cares...
Our precious anger-exposing vehicle (you may call it My Turn) is doin' well.
2 of our members are serving the army (one of them is not exactly doin' so, but nevermind), one of us is workin' hard to earn some money to survive in this fucking life (+ buy some vegan / straight edge hip hop records), while we don't know where is the 4th one; if you have seen him anywhere, drop us a line or just tell him to get back in Athens.
Btw, we had a rehearsal 10 days ago and we wrote a brand new song, simply called 'A Bitter Smile', you have to listen to this. Honestly, I think it's one of our best songs; and it's catchy as hell, haha.
We can't be patient; we wanna play live now... NOW!
But we have to wait till 9th April, when we are gonna travel to Komotini to share the stage with our friends Vodka Juniors, and Bad Bid. Get prepared for war.
Moreover, we have confirmed a show in Patras on 6th May, along with Straight Opposition and My Distance from Italy, plus our fellow band I Want You Dead. It's gonna be a blast.
There's a chance that we'll play in Volos on 26th April, but it's not sure yet...
A! Did I tell you that we are gonna play as special guests in a show coming up in the end of March?
You won't read My Turn in any poster, but you'll be informed via email, no worries...

Other news? Hm... We got a really nice interview and an awesome review in rockap.gr.
Here are the links to enjoy both:

We also went commercial, giving one of our songs for a video showing a friend of us designing a Cohete surfboard deck. We are getting rich, fuck yeah!

That's all,
We'll update this shit again really soon.
Read Take Your Shot fanzine #4.

The poster above was designed by Ultra Grim Disign.
We are thinking of printing some cards using this design.
I dunno if the financial crisis will let us do it.
