of Spaghettifest, Shredder, and Street Corner Prophecies

Behold! This Month's Free Single:
Our musical tale of rage and ruin told in a sort of prophet-on-a-street-corner type way.
The song's title?
"Street Corner Prophecy"

Also- we'll be playing at this year's Spaghettifest Music Festival! This is the ninth Spaghettifest now, and all those who are familiar with the name know the good times that are in store. It's 3 days of independent music hosted by Midnight Spaghetti and the Chocolate G-Strings: a hard hitting funky band from Virginia with an apparent masters degree in the study of Groove. Check out the lineup- and snatch a presale ticket while you still can!

While preparing for said awesome music festival, we've got a nice busy schedule of learning new material and finishing up recording our second album!

Yeah! Recording!


By the way, on a completely unrelated tangent bit of news that has shaken us to our very core...
Did you know that on the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" cartoon, the character of Shredder was voiced by James Avery aka "Uncle Phil" from "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air"?
Believe it.


Now go forth and spread the word.

of tumblr, the new site, and robot love

Ahh... right. Been a while since we last posted- sorry! We got a bit sidetracked with our new tumblr account- which is a bit like reading this blog but in small but easy-to-assemble pieces, with 70% less rambling.
We actually probably ramble about the same on both- but differently.
To many disciples of places like Blogger, Tumblr is a forbidden word, and mentioning it may cause extreme rage- we ask that you treat our blog and Tumblr as separate entities and never as "pretty much the same thing" (they are, though.)

Our website was also given a thorough nip tuck and de-lousing - let us know what you think of the new look! (presuming you like it- kindly direct all negative comments to this non-existent page.)

Now that that's out of the way- our free single for this month is about robots.
Robots can look horrifyingly human these days. Thanks to the "Uncanny Void" of fake stuff looking more and more real, we all have to deal with distinguishing which is which. By the time you have read this today, you may have talked to a robot, befriended one, or maybe even loved one- without even knowing it.
This is a painful topic for those who have felt loves cruel sting after falling for a replicant, and for these special few, this songs for you. Enjoy!
