August 16th, 2011 -
Right now we are in the process of booking a short west coast tour for october. The dates are on the shows section. Most of the dates at this point are pretty set in stone. In other news, we recently did a massive online merch update, got some new designs up there, all the in-print recordings, and even a few older shirts that we are trying to clear out of the way. Feel free to go and pick some stuff up to help us fund our California plane tickets :) We are planning on doing alot more touring in 2012 and playing out more. We will be doing more weekends within our immediate radius, a full US tour in Feb/March, and Europe next summer (including Fluff Fest in Czech). South East Asia to follow.... more on that later....

- Hello freaks. A few things... We added some videos. We added "Degradation" (+lyrics and info) to the records section. We added a few fun items to the online store, so check that out. The shows section is updated too. Now for the real business: west coast tour in October! Hopefully we hit the entire coast. More info on that later.
February 9th
- This site hasn't been updated in forever. Here is what's new with COKE BUST: Our new EP called "DEGRADATION" is out now in America on the almighty GRAVE MISTAKE RECORDS and out in Europe on the infamous REFUSE RECORDS. The records have different covers and layouts, but don't be confused - the music is the same. We'll be doing a few weekends and shows coming up. No more crazy tours for a little bit. Our extensive merch warehouse is moving from Arlington, VA to Gaithersburg, MD due to rising property taxes. Fucking yuppies. Give us about a week to get that up and running. We'll have shirts, records, cd's, the whole bit. Jubert is still single. Europe was awesome, by the way. Thanks to everyone who came out, helped out and made EUROTRIP a reality for 4 and a half Americans.
August 5th - Huge Update. We recently recorded 6 new songs with Kevin Bernstein at Developing Nations Studios in Baltimore, MD for our newest 7" record, "Degradation". This record is scheduled to come out in Europe on REFUSE RECORDS and possibly on an American label to make things easier for everyone back home. We put up 2 of the 6 songs.

----------------
Six Weeks Records is currently repressing and remastering our Lines in the Sand LP to fix the mastering problems that the 1st press had and to give it more of the "flow" that it intended to have. They will also be pressing a CD version of Lines in the Sand that includes our Demo 7" + Fuck Bar Culture 7" + Comp tracks + Unreleased stuff. Basically everything except for the "Degradation" EP. We will have both of these things for the European tour.
As of right now, Six weeks is in between presses of the record, but we have a small stock of records from the 1st press. If you would like one, they are available on our webstore for order.
--------------
In an effort to offset some of the costs associated with preparing for the European tour, we have really beefed up the webstore. We currently have shirts, Lines in the Sand LP's, Fuck Bar Culture EP's, and live tapes from Raleigh .
May 28th -Ok. We are back. After almost a year, here's a long over-due website update. Here's what's new: European/UK tour in October, a new 7" coming out on REFUSED RECORDS,
a CD version of "Lines in the Sand" on SIX WEEKS RECORDS (includes tracks from our other 2 7"s + Cycle of Violence Demo + Covers). We have some more merch up, a couple of shows in
the works, and who knows what else.
June 13th - The merch store is now closed until we get back in mid August. If you want stuff, get it from us on the road at one of our shows. If you want an LP, get it from
www.sixweeksrecords.com or from your favorite distro/store. The shows section has been updated yet again. Nothing is really new- we have just been extremely busy
planning the tour and getting new made, etc etc. Thanks to everyone who is hooking us up this summer.
May 24th - The record is officially out now. Be sure to either pick it up from your favorite distro/store or order it
from us, six weeks, or various other mailorder facets. The tour is coming together nicely. At this point we are just collecting
info on what's out there and getting pumped. We are working on getting some new merch as well. Speaking of which, we unfortunately
had to raise the prices of our online merch prices. The postage rates took ANOTHER hike and we simply couldn't afford to keep the prices that we did.
I fully encourage people to pick stuff up at our shows instead if you can! Or, always feel free to order a bunch of stuff at once for you and ya homies. Email us before and
we can work something out.
April 7th - Ok, so the preorders (+ a new shirt design) have been added to the
webstore thing. Go order that while you still can. They will probably only last for a few more
weeks. We started adding the tour updates in the shows section. Should be a sick time. We can't wait!
March 22nd - The website is now completely finished, with the exception of a few small
things here and there. Band news- within a few days expect to see the "Lines in the Sand" LP preorders
going up. The record release show will be on May 16th in Washington, DC. Stay tuned for more info on that.
Other news- the booking of the tour is going well, people in Salt Lake City, Louisville (KY), and Oklahoma
City are highly encouraged to get in touch. Check out the merch store, we cut the prices on one of our shirt designs
to make room for new stuff. CHEAP. YEEKNOW
Feb 20th - This website just got launched. All the bare stuff is here.
In any event, we have put two new songs off our upcoming LP in the media section.
Keep checking back as we make this website awesome. Thanks!
