Happy New Year! We’d like to start 2025 with the first installment of the Gary Ziroli memorial Bandcamp page. Please check out http://www.GaryZiroli.bandcamp.com (link in bio) for free downloads/ streaming of a big variety of music/ bands/ projects involving Gary dating from 1986 to 2023 - so much good stuff!

We have started to organize this awesome collection of Gary material featuring lots of music videos and live videos viewable right on Bandcamp throughout the various releases, and there’s still so much more to come!

Where to start!? First 4 recommends are Capital Air, Swanfeeder - Odors of Light, Thinner Friends, & Mr. Cancelled - Pieces of Head.

We hope you’ll check this stuff out and share it with like minded punks and weirdos. Thanks for the support, we miss you Gary! 🖤

Unbeknownst to us, this interview we (Chris) did with Radio Radio X to promote Pieces of Head was posted back in February, less than 2 weeks before Gary passed.

Would have been nice to know then, but here it is anyway! I think Gary would have appreciated the humor I attempted. Thanks for reading!

Kiss My Parasitic Twin

Here’s a live version (01:34) of a demo we had just started messing around with March of last year when we tried to come out of retirement with Shane as our drummer. It lasted like two practices haha, but was fun as fvck!

Capital Air - Our Machine

this 1998 album featuring Gary Ziroli is now on streaming!

Minimal electronics and guitar by his old bandmate Vernon Gunn with Gary on vocals, Capital Air’s music is reminiscent of the lofi experimental songwriting charm of Guided by Voices. Mr. Cancelled still played some of these gems at least half the time we’ve been a band (and the projects pre-Mr, Cancelled like Swanfeeder and Kingsteen), and for me, Chris, hearing this album really blew me away and is what made me want to make music (or do anything creative) with Gary. It’s a beautiful throw back of mostly dark pop songs written about drugs, mental health, hopelessness, fame, failure, and morality in NYC & Norfolk, Virginia. It was recorded mostly in NYC in the nineties on a Fostex 4 track casstette recorder, and the beats were provided by a Casio keyboard rescued from the trash. I highly recommend giving it a spin!

It’s on all streaming platforms, YouTube, and still up at the old Lofi Kabuki Bandcamp 🖤

Half Dead or Worse EP is now on all streaming platforms!

6 years ago (Dec 2017) Gary released this solo Mr. Cancelled EP. He had been playing a bunch of solo shows at the time and got pretty sick of it and either wanted to quit or have a full band. Well we couldn’t let him quit so the Mr. Cancelled full band formed. Thought it’d be fun to throw this piece of history out there.

And speaking of piece… our 2nd album Pieces of Head drops everywhere on Bandcamp Friday 12/1/23! by @mrcancelled

If you don’t know, now you know.
We welcome Shane as our new (3rd) drummer! I mean, it makes total sense.

We’re psyched to be Cancelling again, especially as this trio which hasn’t done a creative project together since Super Dark Home Video. New music in the works and the release of our no longer new music coming soon! by @mrcancelled
