About Me

We kinda knew each other before. Then one night while eating pizza at the rock & roll pizza party we decided to start a band. We started making songs in September, and played our first show on December 28th '07.

We have 1 LP out on GOING GAGA RECORDS which is sold out - but there might be copies for sale at the following distros:
there's also some talk of a repress in the near future????????
P. Trash (European)
Tic Tac Totally
Goner Records
Going GaGa

<--We also have shirts! Send us a message if you want one.

also...coming soon in the near future are a string of 45s
the first on Canadian UGLY POP RECORDS!!!!!
and the second on the brand new TROUBLE IN MIND RECORDS!!!!!!

plus we're probably gonna do a split or a cassete or both after those records come out!!!
