starting as a songwriting project in early 1998 after the demise of a previous band. releasing the first ep under the name aheartlesssolution in 2001. contained 4 songs 2 of which were covers of old soul songs. releasing a 2nd ep in 2002 which contained 6 songs and contained the story of a mother and child ie osker and his mother. playing small local shows. in 2003 self releasing the first real release which contained 7 songs that clocked in at around 30 minutes. dealing alot with death and life. the first 200 copies were handmade with self sewn covers. each one unique. the final 300 pressings were cd-r's with paper sleeves. somewhere between 800-900 of these are existing out there.... after releasing this record worked with masa records on a new album which is available online by searching aheartlesssolution on google and going to the internet archives. its free for download.
heading out on a month long tour with 1985 all over the country and getting rid of these copies was in direct order. after returning from this tour headed to salt lake city utah to tour for 3 months with a friend and play guitar in the transcendentalist. hitchhiking for 3 months straight playing music for near free everywhere. writing a book about desolation and bleekness in middle america was the topic. after returning from tour living in salt lake city and recorded demos for a new album. flew to the east coast for a 2 month east coast tour living in delaware, new york and philly. finally flying home in 2005 for an appearance at the bellingham popular music festival. released a limited demo that contained the tracks for the upcoming album mirabile visu. a month later moving to seattle and living in the dearborn house and recording an album with resistor. enlisting her into the band playing drums. recorded 10 songs and releasing it as mirabile visu. artwork was done mostly at the department of safety in anacortes. heading out on a 60 day 60 show tour with breaker breaker in the spring. selling/giving away copies of the record. most all shows were free as a give back to people that have been listening. while on the road writing more than 10 new songs. returning home and working nonstop recording and preparing for the new album which is yet untitled.
the album will be released on a limited cd-r version and then only available on vinyl. it will feature some of the top musicians in seattle making guest appearances.

C'mon! Why not, right? Sure it's a Wednesday, but it will definitely be worth your time. I don't usually throw around guarantees, but I guarantee it !!!
it's alright. i have been doing the exact same. but! i am moving back to the greater seattle area within the week.. so we will be able to hang more. or at least say that we will hang more. either way.
hey do you have any idea when you'll be playing on the 21st? I just realized my band's playing that night a few blocks away, and really still want to be able to see you play
Thank you...we try to dig on everyones interest's or the sounds they enjoy,..We like what you had going on your page...and figured we would take the chance, you would like what we enjoy the most...and thats make music...but for the most part... now that we got that horrible and cheesy statement out of the way....this looks like another typical, but somewhat long band comment... But heck at least its a comment... Right?
