leaked.

supposed to be out in April. here for you to love now. thats what you get for sitting on an album for too long i guess. as if im not going to buy a copy the first week anyways.

9 tracks all of which are killer. very little deviation in writing style from the last album. southern/brit sludge/stoner rock(depending on where your sensibilities lie). a lot of the same chord progressions as last time. some interesting mid riff tempo changes here and there. more guitar harmony on this one two i think.

production value is similar to last record as well. nice that this one wasnt overproduced like so many sophomore efforts (totally ruins some bands for me).

i'm sure a lot of peoples "personal growth" since Age of Winters (you all loved it) will render this latest effort from the guitar hero sellouts as unpalatable, but this album is fucking killer and worth a listen. - Wed, 6 Feb 2008 6:36pm

Here's a vid of "Freya" live.
I'd travel down the coast to see them.
Seattle, Portland, San Fran, road trip anyone ?

Oh wait. I'm not welcome in America anymore. Maybe they'll come to Vancouver. - Fri, 8 Feb 2008 4:29am Edited: Fri, 8 Feb 2008 4:34am

The wife gave me the ok to attend this show.
My lawyer says it shouldn't be a problem.
The last time I was in the states was almost ten years ago for Reggae On the River in Humbolt County. - Mon, 17 Mar 2008 1:28am
