November 1, 2011 EP#2 in our series is out today! It's titled "Nemet Uul" - head on over to our webshop to listen to it in its entirety - and purchase: "All Part Of His Plan" has long been a live favourite (looking at you Toby Goodshank and Bruce Lynn!). Hat's off to the amazing Aaron Kant for playing the crap out of the drums on this song and also the third one. Sending you Peter Falk smoke signals, Aaron! "Never Know What To Say" - this one is an outtake from a time long begone, with our dear friend and original drummer Pete Hayes on drums. Recorded by wunderkind Juan Pieczanski of the band Small Black, this track is an exclusive offering, ie - it will *not* be on the final cumulative vinyl release, so take it out for a spin. Did you know Pete played with us at our recent show in Beacon, NY? "It's OK" - yep that's Steve's solo in the middle, but allow yourself to be pointed toward the dual madness that is Alec and dAve at the outro. Holy smokes! To celebrate, we're throwing a bash at Cake Shop this Friday night with our newest member Dan Mintzer pounding the skins. Check out the amazing line-up we have in store for you: "Nemegt Uul" EP Release Party:
