IDF. They planned on releasing their first LP, 'Peace, Love, and Kalashnikovs', on September 11, 2010. Their first radio feature was planned for May 1, 2010 with
Cultural Syndicate, who canceled after a closer review of the band's lyrical content, allegedly due to fear that it might cause offense among listeners. The band has been mentioned in publications such as Bitchface Magazine, Stamp Media, Apen voor Antwerpen as well as countless blogs and posts from around the world.
