I think everyone hates this question because everyone wants to be the diamond in the rough. I know as a band we don't want to sound like anybody else. But even diamonds come from pressure. Our influences, meaning other music and bands that we like and grew up with, are all over our music... (Radiohead, Modest Mouse, Built to Spill, At the Drive in, David Bowie, Sunny Day Real Estate, Fugazi, U2, The Pixies, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, Godspeed you Black Emperor...) If we have done our job, half of them you will know and the other half, you won't hear.
We live in "The Goodland" of "Wealthy Estates" (Santa Barbara, California). We play expressive, honest, no rules rock (We do what we do...). We released a full length titled: "The Villainy of the Ordinary". We released "Snapshots from a Warehouse"our EP before that. We have another self-titled record to be released this year. We want you to go get it, love it, leave it, then love it again, and get some for your friends to love it, too. We are 4 friends, 2 guitars, 1 bass, 1 drum kit and anything else we can get our hands on. We love music. We would be crazy to do what we do and not love music. We try and cram as much of ourselves into our music as we can. We rock out in a basement. We will rock just about anywhere. We have been rocking for over 5 years now, and the rock just keeps getting better. We have rocked with some great bands, most of which are our friends. We hope you get to see us. We hope we get to see you. We are no good at writing bios. We will probably change this.
Hey, thanks for friending me! I'm just a local who never knew where 2 go so I built this site in my spare time. It's all user generated so I really need some help uploading cool bars and specials. I also made up a place where we can post events too. Check it out and let me know what you think. I am still building it so if you have any suggestions, I can usually put them in right away. The site's address is yourareacode.com. Thanks again!

THATV at reds may 3rd Ok, I know I've been out of the loop lately due to planning for baby, which is due in less than a month, so I'd really like anyone who can to make it down to Reds cafe on may 3rd to rockout with HERO AND THE VICTOR, OSO (maybe), and many special guests playing music (Erin, myself, us togeather, jonathan, and others) there will be a cheap cover.
we would really love to see a bunch of people down to support our new family! Miss you! -Matt-
The hero and the victor! Just stopping by to let you know that there's going to be a brilliant night on at the Purple Turtle in Camden this Saturday (26th April). So if you happen to be in London, or you know anyone who wants a fantastic night out - We'll be supporting the fantastic Lancashire Hotpots who are down for a rare trip south - they're like nothing you've ever heard this side of watford. Check them out at myspace.com/thelancashirehotpots, don't forget your phone wallet keys and come and have a good chuckle.
Plus for our set we've got some exciting guests playing with us including Clem on funky guitar solos, Olly on trombone and Chlo on Cello. It's the biggest incarnatioon yet!
Go to glasswerk.co.uk/tickets to book your ticket now as it looks likely to sell out.
2 shows. 1 home, 1 away. If you're around, hope you can make it to one.
