What's up S.M.I. Friends and Family, We are excited to have been chosen to advance in the Project Independent National Metal Showcase. Now, we need your help to continue. Beginning December 1st, a online voting competition on www. projectindependent. net will determine which bands will advance for an opportunity to become the Featured Artist for 2009. The Featured Artist receives a 60 day national tour, $5,000, CD manufacturing, custom merchandise from Rocky Mountain Hardcore, free gear and tech support, and more! These are all things that S.M.I. needs greatly. So, help us advance everyday in December. Tell everyone you know about this. Let's show the world what three crazy southern boys from the Mountains of Northwest Georgia can accomplish with a little help. This IS a popularity contest, and we are going to be facing off against a lot of really good bands from larger cities. So, we are at a disadvantage. But, with your help we can win.
