We officially have our full length record this week after a long eager wait!
We have been playing down South, as well as a few home shows. While Evan is busy with The Taste Of Blood, we have been playing with former drummer Andrew LeGrande.
Within the month we will be hitting the studio to record a cover of My Old Man for a Fury 66 tribute CD. We also plan to record a couple brand new songs to demo.

It has been a busy spring time for us, short of not having a summer tour scheduled (a total bummer due to circumstances).
First of all, we recorded 12 new blistering tracks for our upcoming full length release, entitled The Right Disease. The album was recorded at Castle Ultimate in Oakland, CA. Zack Ohren, who recorded our prior EP engineered the drums and setup the guitar for tracking. Aaron Hellam recorded everything aside from drums and mixed the project. I mastered the project at ThrashMasters. Some of the tracking was a little rough, but over all, we are pretty stoked on the final turnout. We deffinitely took the "less is more" approach and refrained from overdubs and electronic noises. Basically, we did not record any excess that we could not play live.
Following the recording, drummer Ben Christensen moved back to Las Vegas. We recruited the talent of Pat's brother Evan Diola (The Taste of Blood) to hammer out the percussion.
We are finishing the art for the album, and expect to have it released late summer. We will be playing our CD release show at home in Santa Cruz, and hope to be hitting the road in the next few months.
