Our
video for "Sex, Drugs & Heavy Metal" has been
showed on MTV Headbanger's Ball in Greece! As you know,
MTV VJ, Vanessa, has worn our T-Shirts several times on the show
and now she got our clip on. All future videos we release
will now also get rotation on the channel. We are very
happy about this! I just wish I could speak Greek...
Go
here, find the 24th October show and forward to the 24m40s
mark - that is where the VJ's start talking about us. I
hear my name, Vikki's name and a sentence that includes the
words "eBay" and "free mess".
Uh-oh! MASSIVE thank you to Vanessa for sorting this out!

This
is crazy! We have been inundated with messages saying that
our version of the Rocky Horror Show's "Sweet
Transvestite" has been put up on one of the biggest gossip
sites in the universe, PerezHilton.com.
Took me a while to find it as it has been misrepresented as a
leaked demo of John Stamos from the TV show Glee singing
it! We've emailed Perez personally hoping that he might
set the record straight but check
out the link here - unmistakingly SLT! Here is what
Perez Hilton - one of THE most influential people in Hollywood -
says about it:
"Big mistake, FOX!
This sounds INCREDIBLE!
We mentioned before that John Stamos was Ryan Murphy's original choice to play Dr. Frank N. Furter in the upcoming The Rocky Horror Glee Show! The network vetoed the choice, but before they could, John recorded a demo of Sweet Transvestite.
And it just leaked! And we have it here for you! Yes!
Check out the video (above) to hear Uncle Jesse KILL the song!
Such a waste!"

We
have a line-up change, our first since 2006! We have
parted company with Cyndi and wish him every success in his
future endeavors. His replacement is Canadian guitarist ROB RiOT.
Rob is already part of the SPiT LiKE THiS Universe as he co-wrote with Zion the lead track off
our album, "SEX, DRUGS & HEAVY METAL". Rob brings with him a hard, tight edge to SPiT LiKE THiS which will be perfectly evident on the new songs written; the most rhythmic so far.
Rob will make his live debut with SPiT LiKE THiS at the Hard Rock Hell Road Trip in Ibiza and will fulfill all guitar-playing duties on the forthcoming album, which will be recorded in July with Grammy Nominated producer Chris Tsangarides (Ozzy Osbourne, Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy, Anvil) before SLT depart these shores for the Wacken Festival in Germany. |

Album
review from the Swedish Twist Magazine: "The fact is that 'We Will not Hurt You (But We Will not Go Away)' is a pretty great album. It's a bit dirty and in your face but in a really distanced and ironic way. With his very well articulate voice the vocalist Lord Zion escorts us forward through lyrics that just turns more and more absurd. Tracks like 'Dead Girl Walking', 'Pussywhipped' and really great 'Hunt You Down' makes me really want to see the band in concert. That would most likely be yet another dimension to be added to the music and make it even more likable." |

Review
of our Hard Rock Hell set in Record Collector magazine this
month: "Spit Like This brought proceedings to a climactic close. The single, ineligible male contingent were not left disappointed, with bassist Vikki looking every bit the rock fantasy, which explained the carpet."

Really
nice review of our Hard Rock Hell set by Greek rock webzine Rock
Pages: "Yet we rather watch a band that will become a huge act in the near future, British Punk Rock Glammers, Spit Like This. They are really awesome! Ultimately hot bass guitarist Vikki Spit is fire on stage! It’s too late (or too early in the day), however the band is kicking, having frontman Lord Zion in amazing shape, closing the gates of Hard Rock Hell III. You must check out this band. It’s not coincidental that it’s the only band featured in all three “Hard Rock Hell” festivals!"
