seems like all of us are heading towards one of the most exciting summers in years...

we just had an awesome practice and finished two new songs. one more will follow very soon which will be # 7 for the upcoming split 12" with the amazing cloud rat ! the studio is booked for mid may and we hope to have the record ready for our US tour in july!

unfortunately we had to cancel our appearance at the cmar warmup and the cry me a river fest - even if we love what we do, there are also other important and very good things and beings in our lives that need our attention ... 

so that leaves the loss of breath fest (07.07. @ Rote Flora HH) before we head overseas and spend two weeks with some of the loveliest folks on earth.

revolution summer here we come ...

It's really happening!

What started as a crazy idea - to start a band, the three of us, living so far away - has quickly turned into reality and now our split 7" with the great Beau Navire is out, released by a couple of excellent labels.

Soon, we'll have another intensive practice session, that is: sweat, broken strings, sore hands and throats, but most of all, lots of fun. And let's hope we'll come out with some new material.

As for the split's songs, we'll put them up for free download soon, but if you like them (or those by Beau Navire for that matter), go and get your copy of the 7" if you wish.

We've also put the lyrics for the three songs online now. Have a look here.

Stay tuned (somewhere, not necessarily here) and make the best of your night.

In those far off days, my colleagues and I first conceived that impossible and absurd notion, that we might stray still further … We wanted to entrench ourselves there, to become independent of the grown ups, to move entirely beyond the range of their sphere of influence and proclaim a republic of the young.
