Summer is Here!

We have been enjoying the sunny and warm weather here by hanging out at the beach and drinking beers in the back yard. Summer has finally arrived! Now all we need is a BBQ!

I just returned from touring with END PROGRAM out west. We met lots of great people and bands along the way. Some of our friends are coming out east in August. THE REBEL SPELL is coming out for a bunch of Ontario dates and Single File To Freedom will be playing a few of those shows (maybe Oshawa, Kingston and Peterborough - we'll see). Also, CHAOS, DISORDER & PANIC will be out here around the same time and Jesse from CAMBRIDGE will be out for a couple of acoustic gigs as well. August is gonna rule!

Well, we've been working on some new songs recently and we're getting ready to go back into the studio to record some new and some old(er) tracks.
We also have a couple of shows coming up:

Sunday, June 28th @ Strangelove in Toronto
Thursday July 23rd @ Suba Lounge in Toronto

I will update with more info soon.

"Sloth" Live @ Fuck Off Cancer Fundraiser

Here is a decent quality video of Sloth live at last springs Fuck Off Cancer fundraiser @ Studio BLR. Enjoy!

Oh yeah, we have a blog...

So we kind of forgot about this site. A lot has happened since the last time I posted here.

We have recently been on a short hiatus due to injuries. Chad cracked some ribs in September and Wayne broke a finger in October.

Wayne is back in action and we're welcoming him back by playing at the new High Art For The Low Down space called Annies on Queen on January 23rd. We are playing with Ball Harness and the Womb. Should be a blast!

I'll update this again soon, I promise! Less than a year this time I swear.

CD RELEASE SHOW FRI. FEB. 2!!

Hello, the show @ Studio BLR was great. and so was the new years show @ the same place. We will definitely have more shows there. Thanks to Lynn for the space and help. We met lots of new friends and lots of old ones. Some of our new friends are END PROGRAM who saved our asses on Dec. 9th when one of the bands bailed like a bunch of bitches (after telling us THAT DAY they would play and then only told us they weren't coming after we called them to see where they were 2hrs before the show). So, END PROGRAM just happens to live upstairs from studio BLR and offered to fill in. It was their first show and they rocked! so, we've asked them to join us for our cd release party. Speaking of which....



So, we hope to see you all there! All the other bands have myspace pages, if you want to check them out, then click on their names (if i get it right).

Soooo.....we were going to have it on December 9th(sat) and due to various technical difficulties, now we are going to wait until after Xmas. We will try tomorrow to set up another show for Dec. 9th at a bar dowtown. We will post our FINAL DATE for the release show as soon as we have it.

Also, I will be priting like mad this month so if anyone wants anything specific, let me know pen15cox@hotmail.com
