Reminder – Vancouver – Oct 7 & 8 – NINJASPY – Throw Down The Skank – “NO KATA” Tour
Vancouver’s NINJASPY, an eclectic trio of brothers that blend influences of metal, ska, grunge, hardcore, reggae, funk, surf and jazz will be throwing down the skank as they return to their hometown for two nights of throwing down the skank for their back to back tour wrap parties.
The band has been on tour since early August in promotion of their upcoming “No Kata” EP / graphic novel and released the first single last month called “Skaingkh (The Skank)”. A term that Ninjaspy uses to encourage having a good time and getting the crowd to dance and head bang like there’s no tomorrow.

Tour Journal Part 1. – http://puregrainaudio.com/features/ninjaspy-exclusive-no-no-kata-tour-journal-1
The band will be releasing their new “NO KATA” EP/ graphic novel in the coming fall, a follow up to their highly praised 2007 album “Pi Nature“, produced by Garth Richardson (Rage Against the Machine, RHCP, Mudvayne) and Ben Kaplan (Atreyu, Haste the Day, Shakira) that has sold over 2500 copies both independently and internationally.
“The NO KATA EP is a real game changer for us. Stylistically it stretches the boundaries of our genre mashing moniker, incorporating some of the most outlandish sounds we’ve ever thought up or accidentally stumbled upon in a creative process. It harmoniously weds all the elements of our musical adventures with a picturesque storybook that illustrates all the connections between music, dancing, martial arts and meditation that are the fundamental basis for Ninjaspy. “Ninjaspy no kata” in Japanese tranlates as “movements of Ninjaspy”. This release is the Tao Teh Ching of throwing the skank down.” commented Ninjaspy vocalist/ guitarist Joel Parent.
Over the last few years in promotion of “Pi Nature”, the band has completed several headlining Canadian tours, appeared on The Warped Tour and Taste Of Chaos festivals, and shared the stage with bands like Protest the Hero, Coheed & Cambria, Thursday, Cancer Bats, Grimskunk, Death By Stereo, 3 Inches of Blood, Set Your Goals, Four Year Strong, Brutal Truth, Divinity, Bring Me The Horizon, Neuraxis, Pierce The Veil, Powerman 5000, The Dreadnoughts, & more.
In October 2009, Ninjaspy’s international foothold was strengthened when Zestone Records released “Pi Nature” across Japan and took Ninjaspy across the Pacific to tour Japan with Death By Stereo the following year.
Now the band returns in 2011 with a momentum to grasp audiences with high-energy and free-expression dance pit parties.
