\r\nCommented the winner:
\r\n„There I was just minding my own mind when I got the call that Skull Fist won the Rock the Nation Contest! Good thing I wasnt wearing my good spandex! On behalf of the other fist’s in the fist I am wickedly syked to be rockin the nation with rock the nation. I have been very aware over the years with the concept of art coming from noise and since this is a great concept and an absolutely gnarly label I am proud to be loud catching the magic power of Noise Art Records! All the heavy metal dudes and dudettes of planet earth be prepared for the gnarliest of gnarly times and be sure to exercise those necks.. You don’t want to pull a muscle out there! Skull Fist will continue its quest for world domination alongside Rock the Nation and Noise Art and will forever RIDE THE BEAST. On the rise, rising out together. calling out, our forces multiply. I can see, there’s nothing else to live for. THE TRUE MUST KEEP THE SPIRIT ALIVE!“
