The EP is to be released on the 8th February and will be available to download for free, whilst the band will be taking donations for the humanitarian effort in Haiti.

Please visit http://www.haitirelieffund.org/ and http://www.myspace.com/johnqpublic for more information about the fund and the band.

A short statement from John Q Public:
“With a disaster of this magnitude, for those of us in the UK, lucky enough to have money to spend on luxuries, we have a responsibility to help those affected by this horrendous earthquake. Haiti is one of the world’s poorest countries, and they are relying entirely on international aid to come through this unmitigated atrocity. The ‘Voices of Refusal EP’ is available for download as Pay What You Want, so people can pay as much (or as little) as they can afford to give, in return for not only some KICKIN’ punk rock tracks, but also the knowledge that your donation will go towards the biggest humanitarian relief cause in recent history. Anything we can send out there will be gratefully received by the hundreds of thousands of Haitians that have lost everything from their homes, possessions, and even their families.”
