The crew over at Ourstage.com has been absolutely amazing to us over the past year, and it all started because you guys helped us win the July grand prize (thanks again!). They've already helped us in so many ways, and now they're doing it again with a special promotion just for us!

It's really simple...if you haven't already signed up for Ourstage.com, click the image right here and sign up, and they'll give us $2. It doesn't cost you a thing (and only takes about 30 seconds), and you'll get 12 free MP3s, help us pay for our upcoming album, and be part of what is hands-down the coolest independent music site on the Web. And if you've got your own music or videos, start uploading and you might just win yourself $5,000! Thanks!

If you want to help out even more, get your friends to sign up as well! We'd really appreciate it if you could plaster this link all over the Internet: http://www.ourstage.com/banner/charity_bookmark/vicesiadmire - THANKS!!!

THANKS!!!

Influences: Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Radiohead, Sammy Hagar, The Nymphettes, Sub-Pop (Culture), Jimmy (Page), Gatsby's American Dream, Primus, System of A Down, Modest Mouse, Deftones, The Mars Volta, Sparta, Word Golf, Pallous, the groove sauce, the Hydeggers, Mechanism, Alkaline Trio, H., V.H., Live, Busta Rhymes, Pearl Jam, Incubus, Taproot, Glassjaw, bell hooks.
Sounds Like:

I dunno, comparable to Deftones; sit complacently between Incubus and Brand New. We could be friends with Mars Volta - though they would probably laugh at our comparable lack of beauty. And I DO mean aesthetic. And I DO mean physical. And I DO mean that we are not "good-looking". Rather, we ascribe to that which is beautiful beyond physical appearance. Like the ability to tie one's shoes.

Record Label: No label, we are 100% DIY currently
Type of Label: None
