summer happenings


these past few months have been really rad. thanks to all of those that came out to our shows, especially those at hozac's blackout fest and the in-store with slushy, sxsw, and record store day at doc's.

we are STILL working on our album. it's taking forever, but that's how this shit goes. hopefully it'll be done sometime this summer. we're stoked, and you should be too. outside of that, we don't have too much going on this summer other than a few local shows. they'll be sweaty:

june 16th - fort worth - lola's saloon w/ nervous curtains, ice eater, and eyes wings and many other things
june 22nd - dallas - queen city hall w/ the boom bang, low times, and eetsfeats
june 24th - austin - the parish w/ tba
july 19th - fort worth - the where house w/ the paperhead, d. watusi, and joey and the longshots

sxsw + other tidbits



we haven't updated in a while. sorry about that. we have been busy, though. we've played some great shows since our last update, have been hard at work on our new album + a 10" split on a rad label with a rad band, and have been preparing for sxsw. this year we don't have as many shows as usual, but all of the ones we are playing should be really rad. one of them isn't completely worked out yet (group tightener showcase on saturday), but keep checking back and should be worked out soon. see ya'll down in ATX.

we're back


we're back from our hiatus and we have a lot of good shit coming up:

-- lately we have been shelling out new songs for an upcoming album at practice like crazy. hopefully we can get this stuff recorded before the end of the year is up and have it mixed down a little after that. some songs remind me of black sabbath meets the beach boys. i don't know, it's pretty cool.

-- outside of the new songs we have been working on, we have a couple already recorded for a 7" out on a tba announced label that rules.

-- shows!:
 
- 10/14 @ beerland in austin w/ creationists, the zoltars, and horse + donkey
- 11/11 for steph's birthday bash @ beerland in austin w/ voyageurs, rayon beach, year of the bear, and tba
