'Waste' OUT NOW!

It's official, our acoustic album is finally up for purchase today! Unfortunately, we decided we weren't ready to release 'Through These Years' and the full version of  'Sleepless' so 'Waste' is the acoustic interperatations of Frustrations, Empty Sea, and Without A Soul. The album also serves as a memorial for my grandmother who was born on September 16, 1932 and past away this past May. She was my heart and there will never be another person to exist that will mean as much to me. Here is the artwork for the album and each individual song artwork:

 Frustrations:

 Empty Sea:

 Without A Soul:

Updates...

Tour canceled

Sad but true. In the middle of our south eastern tour, our drummer was dealing with severe pain in his back from an inflamed disc. His doctor advised us to come home immediately so he could recieve the proper medical attention. He will be seeing a specialist this week and hopeful be well soon.

Waste EP

The Waste Ep is still set to be released on September 16, 2011. September 16 is a very special date to me (Brian) because it is my Grandmother's birthday that recently passed away this past May. We have uploaded a preview song on our bandcamp. It's the acoustic version of Without A Soul, feel free to head over and enjoy your listen. We look forward to getting these songs in circulation to the public so please help us spread the word. Artwork is still pending.

WASTE EP

We have new plans for a small self-release. It will be called "Waste" and will include a song from the LP session that didn't make the record called Through These Years, the full version of Sleepless, and three acoustic/experimental interpretations of songs from The Light In The Distance. We tossed around the idea for a while and we're excited for people to hear this stuff. Artwork will be posted soon.
