XVII

we watched as you sold your flesh for an abstract deity of hollow traces.
And how quick to forget the need for authenticity. Empty form replaces
reality through the fantasy of a public gaze.
devoid of any content when the curtain is raised
yet its complacency that familiarity breeds
and we are just as much to blame.
We all sleep and wait for the all abrasive hand of control to surface
the commodity fetish -- an all consuming want for nothing

New Song will be on the 7 inch.

Hopefully we will have something new released (Small run) for these three fests. If not we will have some LPs for those of you who haven't got one yet.

Alpinist/Masakari Split LP and Eden Compromised Repress

So we have just begun discussing the particulars for the split and we have to say we are getting super excited about it. We are in the middle of writing. We have completed about 3 new songs and are in the middle of about 2 or 3 more. The new batches of songs are by far the best songs we have written as a band. It will hopefully be out by June of 2011 on Alerta Antifascista and a US pressing by Halo of Flies sometime after!

Other news: Eden Compromised is going to be repressed for anyone who couldn't get a copy of it the first time. It is going to have a brand new cover and 3 different color options. This press will be out of 300 (100 of each color). We are really excited. The press should be done by the end of the week and then we have to work out getting the packaging sorted out. More info as it comes. It will be available through Halo of Flies. Halooffliesrecords.com

The Prophet Feeds and Beyond!

First of all a big thanks to everyone who has bought, listened, reviewed and blogged/forumed about the record. We are so pleased with the response that we have received and also excited about the future. If you still need a copy you can get one from either of our labels LP: Halo of Flies, Alerta Antifascista, Contrastz! and Scarecrow CD: Southern Lord.

We have only two shows planned for the rest of the summer, one in Cleveland and one in Pittsburgh.

The Cleveland Date is at Gomorrah with Zann (DE), Black Kites and Antilles August 30th
The Pittsburgh Date is still TBA August 28th

We have a show in September with Enabler booked as well. After these shows and a weekend with our friends Homewrecker (October) we are probably going to be taking some time off to write for our up-coming releases, more info as it comes!. We can just tell you that everything we have planned right now looks amazing. We can't wait to record again.

Expect more news ASAP!
