home.

first check out these bands.

PLAGUES: The record is called "I AM" their from Oklahoma and on Debello records. We got to play with these dudes on a last minute show put on by our buddy Dallas and this band was just one of 4 that stood out that night.I strongly suggest getting the record if you're into just crushingly heavy hardcore that just chunks on and rarely gets any faster than slowish almost two step type beat.
amazing.
The record is fantastic but my only critique is this record WILL disappoint you if you get to see them first, thats in no way taking anything away from the record, but live this band is so heavy that it will shake your balls to to climax.

Maruta: Also on this show our tour intersected with this band, fuck.i dont even know what genre this three piece would fall under but heavy as shit hardcore punk. The crusty influences here are very apparent but there is definitely something fresh and exciting about this band that i dont find in most of the "crusty" bands nowadays. killer stuff, great guys.

ill be putting up more of these bands later.

Big thanks to Mike Kelly and Seamless entertainment for totally ruining this tour,booking shows a week in advance really gives promoters a chance to promote shows. When you couple that with the fact that half the "promoters" you use are about 18 years old really makes for some great experiences. About half these shows were canceled or booked a week in advance so don't be upset you didn't hear about them, i don't think anyone did. Its also great getting contracts for shows that were never actually booked, making you think shows were waiting for you.
The shows that DID go down though,were fucking amazing and thanks to everyone who came out and hung out with us.

The Banner is writing a new record.
Really?
Yes.
Ill be writing a new EP with Will (Frailty) again real soon called "Crippling Despair" this record will be more experimental and trying alot of things i wasn't sure about doing on Frailty.

What label will this be released on?

Big news on this is forthcoming,im sure you'll all be very happy.
