Tokyo Jupiter released 100 of our first demo in Japan. They went to faaaar more effort than we ever did and made it look really good.

We have some demos left, but wont be pressing anymore. You can get them at our "online shop" by clicking on the images below

Tshirts come in 3 Colours (Yellow w/ Pink Ink, Maroon w/ White Ink, Green w/ Yellow Ink)

Support your local Distros! You can pick up our demo from the following...

We were writing music to be placed onto an album. Everything took longer than we thought it would. We ended up deciding to stop being a band. thank you to everyone who listened to us and did something or us. The album may appear at some point soon.

someone told me about this last night and i thought they were joking or just horribly misinformed.

i don't like to make sweeping statements on behalf of our band without consulting everyone but i'm pretty sure we are/will be all somewhat saddened by the news of yr split.

jarvis & i will hopefully see you at tom's

You're playing with Who Calls So Loud?
Oh, that sounds like such a good show! Almost worth the 6 hour car journey up there.
Now all i need is a car, someone to drive it and lots of petrol.

Also, i know it's a long shot but is divine circuitry a reference to Full Metal Alchemist, the anime?

Love your band.
