Starkweather
I just got a promo of the new album this week and I have to say that it totally kicks ass. I think this is possibly the best album in this style since
say Give them Rope by Coalesce. Not that Starkweather sound like Coalesce, but it reminds me of a time before all metal influenced hardcore sounded
like nu-metal or Swedish death metal-lite. I'm not sure when the album hits stores but all of you guys on here need to check it out. One of the best
albums I have heard in a long time.

Ive got the vinyl and what I assume is an unmastered version of the album on my mp3 player. It's definitely great. I'll be buying it whenever it
comes out.

it's being released next week, may 2nd. i haven't seen any pre-ordering info so i'll just get it as soon as it's available. todd posted on here that
he wasn't totally satisfied with the way it turned out, which i can understand, but it still was my favorite album of last year. and this year too
probably. it's just hard to get bored with.

I really need to check out more Starkweather. I heard a couple of songs that they posted on their myspace and I really dug them. I should pick up
this album.
Where's Todd been anyways? Haven't seen him on here in some time now.

May 2nd... robbing and stealing... whole lotta nothing
North America sees the release of croatoan via Candlelight. All grifters and thieves are urged to limit their activities to large chain stores:
Tower, Best Buy, etc. Please leave the mom and pop/neighborhood stores alone. These places need the money. Not to mention in light of the internet
whether it be online sales or piracy.
While not pirate proof maybe the superb Paul Romano artwork and design may be a worthwhile downloading deterrant. If for nothing else the artwork is
worth the price of admission - and that's not a lot, considering we urge you to steal the actual piece of merchandise.
Other than this, there's nothing much to report... there will be some print interviews cropping up here and there... more than likely most won't be
seeing the light of day until a month or two or three down the line. Nothing has been scheduled in as far as interviews until May 11.
Shows - nothing. We were hoping for a record release show; but, a lot of personal commitments take precedence. Never you mind what they are.
What is in the pipeline is a weekend in Salt Lake City at the end of the Summer. And, yes, we are on a NYC Emperor date in July. This was sold out in
advance... and, judging from the ticket price, it is nothing we can wholeheartedly endorse. It's a privilege to be on the bill and it should be an
interesting experience to say the least.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

I finally got this album in the mail after having it for a little while now... and I just realized that my mp3 player put the songs in alphabetical
order instead of their chronological order. I hadn't even noticed. This should be interesting to see how the actual order of the songs changes the
feel of the album.

Hola Thorp Bastards...I've been computerless and have moved 3 times in the last 4 months or so. I actually miss some of you crazy fucks so I thought
I'd sneak over to the computer at work and say a quick hello. It's weird being on a real label, with real promotion, and interviews and crap like
that. Things have been going frighteningly well for us and we should be playing a bunch this summer, even a possible guest spot on the Sounds of the
Underground tour in Camden.
Just for the record, I still think metalcore sucks, I still hate bands that wear makeup and tight pants, still hate any punk or hardcore recorded
after 1988-1990, and still love animals way more than people. It's nice to be back
