After a long head think, Mark, Edwin and i have come to the conclusion that we don't want to carry on with this band any more as we have always said that if one person left it wouldn't "feel right" and after James' departure and then Carl we have decided to call it a day.
We would just like to thank ever single person who have supported us over the past 3 years, parents, friends, promoter and venues, thank you! look out for various other projects band members may pursue in the near future.
Again, thank you everyone!

Carl says bye
lasnight Carl decided to quit the band because of musical differences and personal reasons regarding another member of the band. This means we will be taking a well overdue break to think about what we want to do in the near future. We will keep this bit updated on any new thoughts and feelings. Thanks.

Hey guys,
TOUR NEWS
we have just finished our little tour with the retroscopic and incoldblood boys, it has been an incredibly intense week, a lot good times and some bad times. things have happened that cant be helped but I think we have come out of this tour a stronger band that ever before. But thanks for every single person who showed up to the shows we played, thanks you sooooo much and we hope to see you all in the near future.
Go check out illya kuryakin they have some new recording up on there myspace and there pretty bad ass, thanks to those boys for a couple of awesome shows!
NO MORE JAMES
Last night at the Vic coalville James was asked to leave the band due to personal reasons which some of you may know but a lot of you wont, I’m not going to go into detail because they are personal reasons but we wish James all the best with his future and hope he goes far and does what he wants to in life.
BASS POSITION
So as you have read above we currently don’t have a permanent bass payer, we have a stand in so don’t worry about shows getting cancelled. We are looking for the following,
. Committed hard working bassist
. Must have all there own equipment capable of gigging
. Must be dedicated
. Live in the local or surrounding area
. Pref be able to drive and have own transport
. Be on the same or higher music level as the rest of us
. Must be creative and have input in song writing
. MUST be able to party hard!
If you fit the above criteria or know somebody that does, give us a holler and we will sort something out.
DEMOS / MERCH
Shortly we will be going into the studio to record some rough demos of our new tunes so keep your eyes pealed for those bad boys. Were also looking into getting some t-shirts printed up and they will be available at shows and eventually to buy online.
Again thanks to everyone that has turned up to show, partied with us in the good times and supported us through the bad times, you all mean the world to us! Thanks

12/12/2007 - We've just finished our mini-tour with Fallen Friend and Zenith and it was awesome once again. Thanks a lot boys. Unfortunatly we had to pull out of the last date on the tour in Stockport. Thanks to Craig of Fallen Friend and Enemo-J fame for making a video for us whilst in sheffield, awesome mate cheers. And thanks to Joe for filling in for Mark briefly when he thought his head was going to explode (he forgets he has to breathe). The next mini-tour is in the making for March '08 with Retroscopic and In Cold Blood.

20.10.2007 - We started the writing process today, yay! Were very happy to say that its going very well and have written a new song in today’s practice, I’m pretty confident to say that its going to be awesome when its finished. This new song is everything that we have always wanted to do, we just finally pulled our fingers out and got it done, bit of a change in direction but all 5 of us are really happy with what we have written so far. Keep checking here for more news and happenings. Tomx
The premier of "A Taste Of Derby" is TOMORROW at The Vic Inn, Derby. As there's going to be many A Taste Of Derby events, it would be nice to have a good turn out at the 1st one!
Then AGAIN at The Vic Inn the day after, Monday 7th July with A Poetic Yesterday (signed to Rising Records!) & Waking Theo!
You can also state which band your mainly going to see when putting your name down for advance tickets for the show, so please make sure you put down Thy Insanity (if we are the band of course :P)
