We recorded earlier this week. More on that later when I upload some photos and more boring videos that show the absolute tedium that is the recording process. The songs we finished sound like they should end up sounding "banging" and stuff by the time the post-recording processes are done. I'm real stoked on them. The art is done for the new record actually, but if I blow all my awesome news shit today then I'll have nothing to post later in the week, you know?
ANYWAY.
Sometime last year we got a small flurry of requests to donate songs to charity releases and that, to me, sounds like a great way to help bring in some money to a worthy cause and also help us to maybe get our songs infront of people who might never have come across us before. Its the sort of situation you can call a "super-sweet-deal" if you were from the 90s and had long hair and a skateboard.
The problem is that we hardly finish songs and at that point, we were in a massive slump in terms of writing songs and so after we agreed to do the first one we had to turn the others down because we just didn't think we'd be able to get it done. I managed to write and demo a song really quick around that time and we ended up recording it at home a few weeks later - the quickest a song has ever come together for us (and likely ever). The charity release never came out on CD though and nothing ever seemed to happen with it all, which really bummed me out because the artwork and line-up on the record was looking kind of cool and I thought we'd have actually had some sort of positive effect for our hard work. Shame. Anyway, before we put out some new songs in a few weeks, I thought I should post up the link to this song, as it never got offered for download in the past and the charity record is obviously never going to happen. If you are feeling charitable, feel free to buy some stuff here and help out the people in Haiti or something.

ps: Grade upped another new song on their website, go listen, it's a banger.
