Jim recording BASS + updates to new www.smallleaks.com

So we are getting pretty close to "launching" smallleaks.com
It's going to be our new hub for blogging and band specific topics. We'll be posting up all of our new videos, any musical stuff we are working on, and cataloging our many travels, to include the remaining studio time for the second album, local shows, and tour blogging.
We have a many big hopes for the near future. Right now, we are trying to keep a steady balance of creating new matierial and recording the stuff we have been working on for the last year to two and a half years.
We have captured some cool footage of stuff we have been doing recently, and compiling some of that into little vignettes, (which will be ready soon, for your veiwing pleasure).
We are also planning on releasing the album in a few new and creative ways. Of course, "download" method has grown quite popular in the last couple years, and for those that primarily go that route, we are definitely going to make it worth your while to purchase the collectible version, but we will also be throwing in unique content no matter which way you choose to support us.
The bottom line that we are emphasizing, is that our music reaches the ears of other like minded socially active individuals that care about making an impact in any shape or form. We know you are out there, and we want everyone to know that there are millions more that share the same beliefs. Kind of like Orwell describes in 1984, the idea is universal, and we all want the same thing- however, unifying the world can be near impossible when voices are not being heard.

Now, as for our time in the studio, we have a countdown running for completion and release of the new album. It's currently down to only 96 days and some odd hours. You can see the running countdown at Small Leaks if you like watching days countdown by the second. At this time, drum tracking is complete. London is pretty excited to have everything laid down. Now, while Jim is doing his bass we are focusing on our show in Flagstaff at the end of the month.
We'll be playing with our good friends Caecelia so it's sure to be a fun show. Evan and I finished the flyer for the show and Jarett is going to lay the font down. Expect some wheatpasted flyers on the streets of Flagstaff in the near future. We are also going to be playing on local Flagstaff radio stations in the next few weeks.

We are all overjoyed to have the opportunity to be recording at Zona records. The atmosphere really fits our general attitudes and we hope we can all grow through solitude that the studio provides each of us. I know I take something away from being alone for awhile. Sometimes, life can seem so fast, its hard to stop and really explore your own creativity. Having no task at hand but to create music is pretty much a dream that each of us share and having weeks in which to take part in it is really something that you don't get to experience every day. Hopefully all goes well over the next couple weeks and remember to check out Small Leaks !!!
