Halfway through.

So after three days in the studio we've gotten everything down.  It's been going well, the tracks kick ass.  Tomorrow's a day off so we're probably just going to go to record/comic book stores, eat ice cream and listen to good music.

Life is sweet and this album will slay.

seriously.

Someone sent this video in our direction. It´s a show we played at Stúdentakjallarinn in December 2006. Probably the first show we played after the release of Views of distant towns. I have no idea who recorded it or put it online. But I hope he´s cool with us putting this on here (if not get in touch and we´ll remove it).



Played a couple of shows in the last few days. Trying out the new material. Went alright. Could have been better. The show on Tuesday will hopefully be good. We´re playing with some killer bands so my hopes are high.

For the record...

So the tracks for the new album are pretty much down.  The guys have done their thing and all that's left is for me to finish some of the lyrics for a couple of songs and some tweaking here and there.  Obviously we're very excited about this album and you'll hear why once we catch the songs on tape.  I won't bore you with details coz every band out there is going to say that the new album is a step up from the last one and how it's more mature and/or heavier and/or whatever...The album is titled "Hand in hand with traitors, back to back with whores" so that should give you a pretty good idea about the direction we've taken.  We are very confident that the material we have in our hands right now is something that will matter to people who know their shit and maybe even some who don't, who knows.  We start recording at the end of next week in Godcity so you can expect a new song up on our site soon and believe me, it will kick your ass.
If you're in Iceland come to Organ on tuesday (19.august) and see us play.  With us are the youngbloods in Skitur and Muck so we're in for a heavy night.  Also there'll be a pretty cool interview with us in the next Grapevine that comes out on friday (15.august) so be sure to pick that up...all we do in it is talk about punk-rock and hating people which is pretty much what we're all about.

Just over a month ago Verse from Boston released their third full-length, Aggression, and to be honest it absolutely destroys!  It's good to know that there are dudes making intense, passionate music out there.  They were always promising but needed to get their shit together and develop something serious and holy crap, have they ever.  I can't find the lyrics to this album anywhere (you try googling 'Verse lyrics') and I haven't been able to pick up a physical copy yet but they sound like a treat from what I can pick out by listening.  Seriously, get a copy of this album along with Have Heart's "Songs to scream at the sun" from Bridge 9 and enjoy coz you won't find a lot of bands doing this thing better than these two.
