"Genius. 'You And Me' is the first classic of 2005."
- METAL HAMMER
"Album Of The Month. An epic masterpiece that defies musical genres."
- ROCK SOUND
"Kurt Cobain did many things well, but his most crucial gift was making catchy melodies sit comfortably inside loud guitars. Justin Isham displays the same knack on You And Me, the new album from Open Hand."
- WASHINGTON POST
Those pics mean something. A little hint at seein that you guys are alive and well and are makin a new CD... when god's know's when. Will it be kick ass..... fuckin a it will.
Are you guys alright? Im getting worried! Take your time with the album, just let us know whats going on! You can't leave your loving fans hanging like this!!!!
I can't honestly remember a time previously where I was so distraught over "no news" from a band. Seriously, you guys are one of my absolute favorite bands - PLEASE post some kind of an update. I know it's selfish (and inconsiderate) of me to post this... but the waiting/not knowing is excruciating. Please don't disappear! Please release your album and tour!!
P.S. In the meantime, I would be forever grateful if you'd re-post Werden and Immer Gerade Aus.
I agree...people should chill out here! I reckon I may tire of listening to You & Me in around 7 years if I played it twice a day so as long as the new record is out before then all will be good.....loads of GU love Lee,Ry,Dale and Murray
