12/9/07 - Tours, merch, Ep's and general tingz!
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls! Feast your eyes and listen up! So yes it is true that this update has been a long time coming, but nevertheless have we got alot of stuff to tell you! First and foremost we have just completed recording the final tracks for our currently untitled Ep; you may or may not have noticed some of the new tracks up! However, for the time being we do not have a set date for its release but it is likely to be available late '07 / early '08 - be sure to watch this space! Carrying on, we'd also like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who have purchased our 'Spartan Warrior' t-shirt. We have already sold out of our first press and look like being forced into getting another batch done sooner rather than later! In the meantime, it would also mean a great to deal to us if you could all find the time in your busy schedules to come down to any of our shows that are local to you; especially our tour dates that are posted below. Just come and hang out, you know it makes sense! Either way, we promise we will try and have some more merch designs by then, we currently have two new ones in the pipe-line; so all shall be reveiled soon! So yahhhhhhhhhh.....

26/3/07 - Some more news!
Yo yo! So we've recorded the new tracks and we think they sound pretty damn sweet (hopefully you will too!) They're currently being mixed and mastered and going through the final "tweaking process" but will be up by the end of the week, so keep checking back!
We also found out that Sam is the weediest member of the band by far and cleggyness is brutal - but a worthwhile experience, hahaha! Thanks for all the nice messages too, they have been mint!
