Fresh Start
20th august 2008 - 20.57 GMT

As you may have noticed, we've recenty had 4 gigs cancelled on us for various reason beyond our control, and besides gigging alot over the past month, been a bit quiet. The past blogs have also, all been deleted.

After 60 +  gigs over the past 2 years in support of 2006's 'Regret-Redeem-Refine', and since becoming a 4 piece, we've had the good fortune to share stages with some incredible bands, such as Prong, Panic Cell, Speedtheory, Outcryfire, Evil Scarecrow (our oldest gigging buddies) and Raging Speedhorn to name but a few. We've played all over the UK, put out new merchandise, including the recently released 'Screen for me Peterborough' live DVD, and visited every dive where it was at all possible. We feel we have well and truly exhausted the current setlist and we are badly in need of a new start, material wise. Now we're gonna allow ourselves a bit of time off to have a break for ourselves and focus on playing the last 4 or 5 gigs up until the end of 2008, then launch a brand new set around March/April time 2009 all being well.

So after this last run, you won't see us for a while, we'd like to extend a HUGE thanks to absolutely everyone who has been there since day one, and made especially this past nearly 2 years such a great ride for us and supported it/made it happen in any way/ Be it in a band, venue staff, sound guys, drivers, nice people who's floors we slept on or just anyone who came out to the gigs and picked up a cd, THANKYOU!

We'll be back soon with some crushing new sound, be afraid

Be very afraid...
Thanks ;)
