About Me



we are dreams of violence. here we have some rough recordings of songs / ideas for songs. listen and let us know what you think. or not. that's fine too. soon we'll have more. everything will be soon.

/ now in the midst of recording and completing our debut EP in the wilds of Porchlight Studios - drunk on ideas, high on crackling feedback, so close to the end.. still a few hours of concentrated madness to get through. this EP is taking forever.. predominantly in my mind, but we'll have it soon. I believe in that.. and so should you. /
