About Me

The new record, Are We Not Horses, is all about robotic horses.Robotic horses who think they are real horses.For real.Caught in a battle between good and evil. Between angels and humans. And after eradicating the world of the angels, wondering if they fought for the right side.You can now purchase copies of Are We Not Horses for only $14.99 by clicking the buttons below the album (make sure to select the proper destination):

Hats off to Dale Morningstar from The Gas Station who recorded the new disc with us and made it sound so nice. And Nicholas di Genova for wonderful artwork. Their myspace links are in our top friends. But not Dre Labre, who does a lot to make us look pretty, from photos to CD and shirt design.And you can check out other projects by band members like Chris's novels, Scott's solo work as The Quiet Revolution, and Fiona's work with various projects, all of whom have myspace links below.
