"Heart of Slate finished the night off. First gig? Didnt sound like it. Their solid sound and beautiful harmonies from the backup singers laid perfectly over the band's sound. Very versatile, but not overdone!" -Bob LaBlah, Emergenza Music, 2006 You can now catch Heart of Slate on the new MySpace-IM!

About the Band:
Thanks for visiting the Heart of Slate MySpace music site.
Please leave us a comment and tell us what you think! :)We are currently recording our first album, featuring 11 songs (including the rerecordings of the three on the demo). It's being done with our own equipment and software, but we hope to get a more professional studio recording done for the second album, and maybe even remake/remix the first release. More info to come later! Help support us,
Please add a banner to your site! ;)

Album Ordering Information:
All the current demo and preview songs have been made free to download. We do still have plenty of physical CD copies of the demo left over from past shows. If you'd like one, feel free to drop us a PM!We were aiming to have our first album finished and released sometime towards the end of 2007, which will be featuring 11 original songs. However we have kind of hit a slight hiatus for the time being. We will still be trying to get the album out as soon as possible, but it's undetermined as to when. The sooner the better. At any rate, most likely once released, we will be making most of the songs available free to download, with a possible special edition CD with bonus tracks available to those wishing to order and show support.

Hiatus status + Download update

Obviously we have been in a bit of a hiatus for awhile.  We are still going to be finishing up the album we have been working on here.  We've put too much prior work into it to just give up on it.  Ho...

New song preview

We have uploaded a mid-project of one of our older songs, "Deliver Me", to take a peak at.  It still has a couple more instrumental parts to be added, and a few error fixes, volume checks and overall ...
