A tiny update from the back of the van again. So far we’ve had four shows on this tour and right now we [...]
ANTILLECTUAL News Letter May 2009: ANTILLECTUAL PULLS THE PLUG
After years of writing songs on acoustic guitars, people asking us to play some songs acoustic and acoustic jamming together on tour, we decided to do it right: release an acoustic album and play acoustic shows. And obviously there’s also some more “ordinary” touring and recording to [...]
When Yvo and I (Willem) were young(er) we used to watch every touring band that visited Holland in a place called Doornroosje (sleeping beauty) in Nijmegen. A couple of bands that we saw there when they were still pretty unknown: Ten Foot Pole, Pulley, New Bomb Turks, No Fun At All, Lagwagon, Blink 182, Good [...]

2008 was an incredibly busy year for us. We played well over 100 shows, released a new album and toured all over Europe and the USA. 2009 seems to be getting even crazier. We plan on recording a new record, doing lots of touring again and hopefully play at some nice festivals. And to start [...]
My dearest diary, I just read that the US military (the US Navy's Military Sealift Command to be precise) is sending 989 containers of ammunition to Israël. I guess that's not for shooting clay pigeons… ugh… On a happier note: we're going on tour in a few weeks. And we're playing in Davos [...]
A week ago we got back from a cold and wet yet very entertaining UK tour. We had very cool shows and it was nice to meet up with old friends. Thanks to all for helping us out with shows, sleeping places and heaters. An extremely big "Thank you!" go out to Pieter and Boris [...]
Some small updates. First of all we'll be playing with a band that was a major influence on us when we started this band: No Use For A Name. Really exciting to be sharing the stage with them. And, as if it isn't enough, Only Crime will be playing too that night. Speaking of "All [...]
I’m glad to annouce all dates in the UK are booked now. I’m excited because it’s been too long since we’ve toured the UK, I’m excited to meet up with old friends again. Above all I’m excited this is the first tour I’m on since the birth of my second son… I can’t wait to [...]
Tomorrow morning we'll fly out to the USA to do a East Coast tour for the third time. Excitement is an understatement. Awesome people and shows will be awaiting us. So far we will be playing The Fest VII with an insane amount of awesome bands (250+) and club shows with A Wilhelm Scream and [...]

This tuesday, the 16th, we will be playing the Dynamo / werk21 in Zürich Switzerland. Thanks to our friend Alain of Sums Records. Some of you might recall our show [...]
On August 5 we played with Propagandhi in Belgium and I’m still creaming my pants when I’m thinking back on that show… thanks to Bram and everyone of Heartbreak Tunes for taking good care of us. Thanks to all our friends and familiar faces who were at the show. Thanks to Propagandhi for being who [...]
And already a new update. We plan on giving you more and more (smaller) updates, in stead of drowning you in huge updates once a month. We'll see if it works. For now we have a shows archive to announce. If you visit the shows section and you scroll down you can check the [...]
