We will be opening for Jakob as they embark on an NZ tour for their new album Sines. It has been 8 years since the release of their critically acclaimed masterpiece Solace, and the long awaited follow up is nothing short of amazing. You can stream it live here, and purchase the album here. We will be supporting them in Auckland on November the 14th at Galatos, and the 15th at Leigh Sawmill. We are also gearing up to master our debut album…it’s coming.

Cool show at the Thirsty Dog the other night, thanks to everyone who came out to see us and of course Brigada and Roache for playing with us. Killer bands. The video we’ve been going on about would’ve been out by now but a minor hiccup of hard drive theft means it will take a little longer. We’ll be shooting some footage for video number 2 today, and we have another show lined up next month at Whammy Bar. More mixing for the album from our friend Aaron Harris will also commence in May!

Tune in to 95bfm’s Hard Fast and Heavy show tonight at 11pm (New Zealand time) http://www.95bfm.com/ and hear the mastered song for our up coming video. We will release this track as soon as the video is wrapped up, and a few more before the album is complete!
You can stream bfm from anywhere in the world no problemo!
Our debut video and single are almost complete, and our full length debut is well under way. A massive thanks to our friend Aaron Harris in LA for mixing the track and doing such an amazing job. It sounds huge. This band would certainly not have the same direction or perhaps even exist without the music Aaron has created with the legendary ISIS, and we are honoured to be working with him.
An enormous hand of gratitude also goes out to our long time friend and associate Shaun Leyden for his time and effort on the video. We couldn’t be happier with what Shaun has done, to say this guy has talent with visual art and film is a massive understatement. Shaun is a kiwi who currently resides in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. His film company goes under the name of Mintamatics. The video and track will be posted here as soon as they are ready.
In the meantime we have a show coming up in 3 weeks at the Kings Arms Tavern here in Auckland, with our friends Rule of Thieves, one of our favourite NZ bands. Also on the bill are the killer acts Big Punch and UU. Here is the event link http://www.facebook.com/events/144811718968339/ and a rather flattering poster shot next to SOAD/DEP.
