About Me

THE FIRES ALBUM IS FINISHED. IT IS CALLED "MARE NOSTRUM". THERE HAS BEEN COMPLICATIONS WITH RELEASING IT WHICH HAS RESULTED IN US BEING SHIT OUT OF LUCK; A COMMON THEME FOR OURSELVES AS MUSICIANS. ANYWAYS, IT WILL AT LEAST BE READY FOR DIY DISTRIBUTION WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS, SO PLEASE COME SEE US OR EMAIL US IF YOU WISH TO HAVE OUR NOISE IN YOUR POSSESSION.
