    Wow, I've only listened to the 2 songs on bandcamp but this sounds amazing.
    Really really amazing, love the keyboards as always and the vocals are beautiful and powerful.
    Ross and Ian, you guys are wonderful.

    Will be getting this... also GET ON SPOTIFY NOW!!!

    ps. I like this version of Beneath The Waves better, makes me want to sing along :P

    Looks pretty cool mang. My band's organising our festival shit at the moment, but if I'm free that weekend I'll definitely try and make it over.

    Slap guitar idea I just came up with, needs to be tighter etc but I think it's a cool idea:

    Hey Rockett, Attrition has always reminded me of 30 Seconds to Mars (I mean that in a good way). Any influence there?

    Well not directly on that song in any conscious way, but This Is War is one of my favourite albums and they definitely influence my melody-writing, especially as our singer has a fairly similar voice to Jared in a lot of ways, so yeah I guess 30stm more than likely did influence the song!

    Demoing vocals for new shit:



    Also Rich Wilson (Dream Theater's biographer) reviewed our EP in Classic Rock Prog magazine and said we're awesome and really 'original in a crowded scene' which is prty sweet.

    because it was completely unoffensive.

    who the fuck deletes shit on FB? I think I'll unlike his band and unfriend him just for that faggy time shit.
