Deathrats will have copies of our new record and State Violence will have copies of their new record on Hesitation Wound Records...hopefully.

Give Up is out now.

Our new 7", Give Up, is out and you can buy it here from To Live A Lie Records. We personally don't have the complete records in our possession, but we will have them soon and we will have them at all our out up coming shows. They sound great and Will from TLAL says the covers look just as good. Here is what the finished product looks like:

Record Release Show Canceled

The show on the 23rd is canceled. There was complications with the venue. As bummed as we all are, this will give us a chance to actually have the records ready for a release show. We will keep you all posted.

New 7" Give Up out soon

Hey folks,

The new record is in the works and hopefully almost done. It's called Give Up and will be a 7" on To Live A Lie Records. We are all really excited for this record and how good it sounds. Our good friends Izzy Jarvis and Nolan helped us with the art work. Izzy drew the cover and Nolan (who drew the image for our last shirt) drew the back and insert. I am sure Will at To Live A Lie will be doing mail order as soon as these are ready so if you can't make it to a show, make sure you grab one from him.

Our record release show is April 23rd at the EQB Lounge at American University. We are playing with The Shirks, Stripmines, Dry Spell, and Unholy Thoughts. This show is going to be a rager. We are not sure if the covers will be done in time for this so, if they aren't, we are going to screen print special covers. But lets hope we don't have to go through all that trouble.

Once the record is officially out, we will post ordering information.

New Record

News on the new 7" coming soon. Keep your ears open.

Upcoming shows

Home from tour

Tour was amazing. Thank you so much to everyone who booked a show, gave us a place to sleep, cooked us food, and hung out with us. We are out of the 7" repress and shirts, but the new record is in the works. When we get more details on it we will let you all know. We have a few shows coming up in early 2011. One 1/22 with Draize and one during the first weekend of February with White Guilt (if you haven't gotten their new LP, get it).

Thanks again to everyone who came out to shows last week.
