100% DONE!!!

WE'RE FINALLY DONE!!

We just came back from a 4-day camping weekend to celebrate the completion of our album. It was awesome! There's actually an interesting story about the album and our camping weekend.

It all started Wednesday night when we were finishing the album. We were at the studio with Bernie, our mastering guy. Everything was going great - we burnt the master CD and copies for all of us.
Our plan was to go straight to bed that night because we were waking up for 7am to go camping. I think it was around midnight when Steve called Ed's cell phone (Ed was sleeping at my place that night). Apparently, on his way home, Steve listened to the album and noticed a few errors that needed to fixed ASAP because in the morning, before camping, Bodan was supposed to drop off the master CD at the production house.
To cut a long story short, from midnight until 4am Ed and I listened to the album and make sure there were no more errors that we missed. After listening to the record we went to bed, nerve-racked and scared that there will be delays on our album.
In the morning, we left a long detailed message with Bodan explaining the problems and what we should do about it. Lucky for us that day Bernie was off so Bodan was able to get together with Bernie and fix all the problems. Safe to say, Bo was able to deliver our album on time and it's currently being pressed for all our fans to enjoy.

Recording this record has been a long and bumpy ride. We've gone through 2 drummers, re-recorded the drum tracks 3 times, recorded 16 songs, dropped 4, royally screwed up 1 song only to finally fix it, saving ourselves heart attacks... I can't even begin to think of more things that went wrong. This album took us over 2 years to complete and now that it's done we're so excited to play shows and share our work with everyone who has waiting so long.

We will recieve the album back at the end of the month. When we get them back, all our fans will recieve details as to how they can get a copy VIA Myspace messaging.

Here is the official track listing:
01 What Now
02 Something Real
03 That Striped Dress
04 The Mediator / The Pearl Jam
05 Like Stars
06 Pale Green
07 Slowly I'm Falling Apart / The Porcelain Jam
08 I Do Not Think So
09 What Love Is
10 It's Hard
11 It Must Be For Change
12 Adore

Thank you to everyone who has waited and supported us throughout the recording of this record. We hope everyone enjoys the end product as much as we do. We look forward to playing hundreds of shows all across the country for our fans and friends!!!

We love you,
Andrew
