Social Hero @ Knitting Factory on May 15!

May 1st, 2009

Hey!  Spluh!

Nervous about the swine flu?  The piteous pig plague?  The whorific hog hemorrhage?  The SCREAMING MOIST?!

Well, they’re all out of vaccines at your local Duane Reade, because your Great Aunt Edna went and bought the last 47 of them even though she’s going to die anyway.  Thanks a lot, Aunt Edna!!

Luckily for you, Social Hero will, in a scant two weeks, be offering their Limited Edition ROCK INJECTION at the Knitting Factory–clinically proven to reduce pig plague fatality by 80%.  Our method is simple: we inject millions of little bubbles of Rock into your circulatory system, overloading your heart and causing your head to explode and kill you.  Once dead, you are immune from normal “human” strains of swine flu–all you have to watch out for is the dreaded Zombie Pig Virus (ZPV).  But at that point, ZPV is the least of your problems, you ugly undead motherfucker.

SOCIAL HERO!  UNDEAD AND FULL OF LED

Rise Above The Crawl

April 20th, 2009

Sup Dogggz.

     We’re gearing up to head out to Clarion University in Pennsylvania to kick some ass and take some names!  We sold out of CDs for a hot second but we’ve got more in stock now - so getcha pull and pick up a copy!  
     Support Independent Rock’N'Roll: our record comes with a personal guarantee that it’ll knock your socks off.  And if it doesn’t, we’ll send Blazin Hazen to your house with a stimulus check.

ROCK.

Soft Lunch!

April 7th, 2009

Bienvenidos, party peoples!
     Well, as you can plainly see, we’ve adjusted the feng shui in the House of Hero, so bear with us as we work out all the kinks, cranks, kerplunks and wonks!  Soon we’ll be streamlined - so lets keep it sexy people.  Our next show in New York is a BIG EXPLOSION KNITTING FACTORY HEADLINING SLOT - and you know what that means: Extended Set! 500,000 extra kilojoules of ROCK!
     We’d also like to welcome Col. Derek to the ranks, as Social Hero’s OFFICIAL NEW M&F’N DRUMMER!
     =>WHO ATE ALL THE COLE SLAW?
          Love, Social Hero
