Canada’s favorite sweaty, sexy punk rock nomads KILL MATILDA are proud to announce from now until Dec 27th they will be donating 50% of their pay-what-you-want sales from their latest release ‘Songs For Survival’ to aid in the sponsorship of a Syrian refugee to Canada. In addition, the government of Canada will match all funds raised.

“Hello all!
We are excited to announce that from now until December 27th, you will be able to pay what you want for our new album ‘Songs of Survival’ on Bandcamp, with 50% of the proceeds going to help sponsor Sayf to come to Canada.

Zombie hunters by day and sweaty dance punkers by night, Kill Matilda is a sexy band of nomads that have played over 181 shows coast to coast across Canada since 2008. This fall, the Vancouver three-piece finally takes its energetic act to the USA for an awesome six-month tour of zombie-slaying madness. Frontperson Dusty Exner has been called “Joan Jett on steroids” vocally and the band has been compared to everything from “riotgrrl” to “a mix of Die Mannequin, Concrete Blonde, Switchblade Symphony and Danko Jones.”
Kill Matilda has been featured at festivals such as NXNE, Hamilton Spring Music Festival, Soreal Fest, Grindyourmind Drummondville Metal Fest, and many more. The band has opened for such legends as the Vibrators, Guttermouth, the Brains, Die Mannequin, Econoline Crush and Powerman 5000. Their relentless DIY work ethic has seen the band call Vancouver, Montreal, and Toronto home over the last four years and has won them the attention of industry giants such as GGGarth Richardson, Ben Kaplan & Scott Ternan, who recorded & mixed 6 songs with the band at Fader Mountain Studios in Vancouver, BC.
