About Me

Tour starts on Friday. For complete info, check out the flyers that I uploaded to our West Coast 2009 photo album. We're excited to be returning to some familiar cities, and stoked to play Vancouver, Sacramento and Fresno for the first time. Hope to see you soon.
Thanks,

The initial Sound And Fury lineup has been announced. Not sure what day we're playing yet, but that doesn't really matter. It's going to be a fun weekend.
Also, we'll be playing at the Knockout in San Francisco on Tuesday. It's cheap beer night, so at the very least, come out for a low-budget beer buzz. April 9th will be another local show for us. We'll be doing a house show in Emeryville. I'll get the details posted really soon in our show listings.
On a final note, unfortunately we can't play Rainfest this year, but all of our friends' bands will be playing, so do yourself a favor and check that out! I understand that there are some pretty heavy hitters yet to be announced as well.
Thanks,

Before I get down to the nitty-gritty, here's some quick news items:
• Shirts available online at http://www.arcticink.com
• Our 10" made three 2008 Year End Top 10 lists at Maximum Rocknroll
• All Human Failings 12" is OUT NOW
• All Human Failings pre-orders shipping in the next few days
It's been over a week since we got back from our trip up the West Coast with Cruel Hand, Mind and Ceremony. The shows were a lot of fun, and we're glad to have hit the road with old friends and new friends alike. If you're interested in picking up any leftover merch, we still have some tour versions of the record. Silkscreened covers, edition of 44 – actually numbered to 50, but we didn't print enough covers.
$10 + shipping. Email [email protected] for orders and info.
Looking ahead to the future, we've got some big announcements coming up, but gotta keep a lid on things until things are made official.
Just about a month from now, we'll be hitting the road again for a 10 day journey that will take us from San Diego to Vancouver, BC and a bunch of spots in between. The tour is going to be fucking killer. Playing with 108, Pulling Teeth, Lewd Acts every night will be a lot fun.
