We are the band Self Surplus and we're from around the Rat City area (white center, burien, seattle and normandy park). We (Dylan, Caleb, and Paul) have been playing togther since the beginning of 8th grade. We only jammed with eachother for a while due to the fact that we had just started playing our instruments and we had no singer. In october of 2006 we finally produced 4 songs of our own with just instruments. A couple days after the recording we aquired our singer Nic. When Nic joined we worked very hard on making our own material. In july of 2007 we began recording our first album at Orbit Audio in Pioneer square. The final out come was a 12 track CD of nothing but originals. In December of 2007, we came in contact with Philip, singer of the former Bazino Bazino The Kid Whose Hair Is On Fire. We then had to let Nic go and we brought Philip into our band. We just went back into the studio and had Philip rerecord the vocal tracks for our new MEASURED PEOPLE EP. We currently have three of those song for you to listen to. The EP itself has yet to be released so if you would like to pre order on for 5$ send us a message and we will but you on our list. And as soon as it's done we will had deliver it to you. Thanks for the support and we'll keep everyone posted.

I have the last play practice before we start shows the night of your El Corazon show, but, depending on when I get out I will try to come for the end. CONGRATS ON THE SHOW!!
because our (my neighbors and my family's) privicy is being taken away, due to the upcoming major construction to the field accross the street, we are intending to go out with a sort of... BANG.
meaning that we are getting together a fucking GINORMOUS party at my house, with more than likely Rat City Ruckus to play. we were wondering if you guys would also like to come and jam? we will also be trying to get the Whore Woods as well.....
so... i have just decided that you guys are officially the coolest band (that i know at least half of the people in) to hit my ears with your super sophisticated tunes. and i should tell you that i would most certainly enjoy getting a nice copy of your CD....that would be excellent.....
Hey guys, can one of you burn like 129412730491273 more copies of the CD for me to sell today? Im at my friends house right now, and I cant do it. See you at 3!
i had a little chit chat with the booking intern at vera, and he said that since you guys are from the south side, hes going to dig through his pile of 19834709234 cds and listen to yours first.
srsly guys. i need your cd so that i can make copies and send it out. stop being buttholes and send me one. or ill quite being your manager and you can lose all my sweet connections.
jk jk i wont quite, i love you to much. but really i do need a cd
sorry i didnt come to any of your shows at the end of school, i know you had a few. i really miss listening to your music, its really good, it makes me happy. i want a cd asap.
