Just finished mixing and editing, and sent them off to be mastered last week. the tracks that are up aren't polished...

Dude... bong hit at the beginning of a song? How typical can you get?


Anyways, well done, some nice punk reggae bassifying. Really tight/professional sound overall, I gotta say, I kind of have to zone out what the singer is saying, not a bad voice, but the lyrics seem rather juvenile. Your drummer is kind of all over the place, almost overplaying, but I really dig that. Not a big fan of punk (white... EEK REVERSE RACISM) reggae, but you guys are solid.

Oh yeah, that's totally cool if it's your thing, and I'm positive it has it's appeal to some, but I couldn't listen for more than a couple minutes of each track.

Good bass sound. Good recording quality. Tight musicianship.

Lyrics??? They take away from the music for me personally.

Overall I really like it. Good stuff

I'm listening to your myspace right now, the song epic I think is your most crowd pleasing song IMO, the musics very happy and uppity, but the vocals are very angry sounding. Chill out man

Aaah yes... Pepper.

In the old form of the band (chick singer, drummer, 2 rythm guitars, 1 lead guitar, and bass) we were told we couldn't open for them (2 weeks after being booked) that we were to big and our set up would take too long.




which is bs. we were playing first, so we could have set up 12 hours before the show. lame.


i like pepper, though.
