   About The Cape Of Good Hope
"Bromsgrove's The Cape Of Good Hope have managed to pull off the trick all bands with a penchant for spazzy American influenced post-hardcore should in order to rise above an otherwise arty mire of noise; they infuse their eclectic and expansive music with melody at every turn. In the the last minute of 'Peepshows And Discos' this is to such an extent it's almost impossible not to imagine a baying crowd of thousands being sent into rapture by the looped vocal refrain. However, with jarring guitars, complex rhythms, fucked up time signatures, and the employment of a mirage of different musical styles, they're still dangerous as hell. Welcome them into your heart."

- Rocksound (8/10) Oh, and we've split up.

Hi there,

Thanks for your acceptance and welcome to the family!. After checking out your Myspace comments from fans I now realise that you really have bitten the dust. That's pretty shit as I only come across you guys on Myspaz the other day and your a decent bunch. Judging by your fans comments, you've broken a few hearts here and I say Nay!. Do not carry out this sacrilegious behaviour!. I say a petition should be put forwards!.
