Hello all!

It has been a long time since I have written anything on this site, some of you probably thought we were dead. But we are alive and happy about this. At the end of last year we started work on a full length album. Since then we have all had to get jobs and move away to different parts of the country in order to maintain and improve our aliveability. When we set out to do this album we had always planned and hoped that we would create something that we could be proud of and something that would best reflect our abilities at the time of recording, and something that rocked! It's been really difficult to find the time in between work to make progress on it but 5 months on I am happy to say that the time has come to say: it is finished!

Recording something so big was always going to take time and a lot of hard work but we really feel that the effort has been worth it. I think this album represents our identity over the last year or two and we are excited to release it to the world. As we have made this almost entirely ourselves including all the recording, mixing, artwork and packaging, I think there is more of our own personality in it than just the music and we want you to feel that you are buying more than just a disc of 12 songs; it's a window into our world for those two years.

We are excited for the future, we've started writing new material and we are really happy about the new direction. We want to be playing as much as we can, to as many people we can find and to have a good time doing it. We absolutely love what we do and we hope you do too. Which is why we are selling the album both on this site and at any shows on a sliding scale so you can give us as much as you feel it is worth. We had it mastered for us, and we bought some pieces of gear to help with the process so we do have some costs to cover so give what you can. And if you like what you hear maybe we we will see you at a show soon.

It's not quite ready to send out so I'll let you know when it is, should be about a week away.
And if you like we'd love you to join our facebook group and keep in touch with us. It's http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=18523372673
