Busy and prepping 

Hey guys!

Just wanted to give you all an update on what is happening with us. For the last 6 months we have been hitting the practice space to work on our 7th full length album! 

With our many years as a band and all the things we have been through together, this album in particular has been a really fun one to make. We slowed our touring schedule down back in 2013, and the time at home has really revitalized our creativity. We are excited to let you guys hear what we've been working on!

A new year and new plans (1/14/16) 

   There are some big things on the calendar for us this year. The first thing to tell you all is that we have been locking ourselves away over the last few months to write. It has been 3 years since our last album and we figured it was about time to hit the workshop again and get you guys some new music. We are about 8 songs in and going strong. We hope to have a few ready to try out this march for our string of St. Patrick's Day shows. 
  
We have many shows planned in the coming months in places like:

November 2013 Update 

Hey everyone!!!

This update has been a long time coming! Sorry for the lack of updates this past year. We have had a lot of things come up that we as a band felt we needed to step back and deal with. There has been a lot of rumors going around that Flatfoot broke up and that we were not around anymore. Let’s just set the record straight, “WE ARE STILL HERE!!!!!”

We are ramping up for a weekend of shows this coming weekend (11/8, and 11/9) in Cleveland and Detroit. We are also looking forward to our trip…

March 26 2012, 1:01 PM ET
by David Marchese

As one of the founders of the Vice publishing empire, Gavin McInnes has had a hand in defining a certain type of irony-drenched, filthy-minded, urban-hipster attitude. Since parting ways with Vice in 2007, the Montreal-bred, New York City-based provocateur has taken his sardonic sensibility to the fashion, politics, and dick jokes Street Carnage website and…
