We are the fiends that stayed in.
Ranbir and Davi both DJ (hording vinyl + bits the worlds over), Mr. Wilson works in a music shop as a full-time guru, Sir Foster is a rock journalist extraordinaire, and young squire Jameson is in so many bands we just pray he shows up to play with all his fingers intact.
Congnoscenti?--feh!

Eye Weekly magazine has been good to us. They write: "Cryptic, decidedly un-reggae Toronto quartet can't decide if they want to be Mogwai, The Kinks or Ween, but that's the sort of personality crisis we can get behind."
I was at home pouring over some historical media a few months back
when my cousin stopped in for a visit.
"What's that??" he asked, looking over my shoulder.
Being somewhat of a modernist, I figured he'd probably have seen it
somewhere before.
"Oh, that's Habitat 67," I responded enthusiastically.
A few seconds of dread silence ensued.
"Uh, it was part of Expo 67?", I added starting to get worried.
The interminable silence continued for what actually was, FOREVER, until at last he ventured--
"What's Expo 67??"
Now......I can't recall the exact words of the spittle-spewed-maniacal-
gonzo-tirade I flew into just then, but ---unbelievable! Man(!), here was this
overly aware Canadian mod/skin that had absolutely no clue of Expo 67...I mean, what the?!?!?
In fact, leading up to this LP's release it became apparent time and again that the current generation knew nothing of our centennial ball celebration (though the world be at our doorstep--and in our pantry to boot!). Hell, even when we packed up as a band and traipsed over to Habitat 67 (with video crew [James and Jams we love you] and newly enlightened cousin in tow [Amit you drunkenly-slapped-swine!]), we were met with blank, uncomprehending faces (this isn't a dig towards our French brethren). 'Who in their right minds would be chasing down these ghosts from a dismantled era?' they seemed to ask.
Us, apparently.
So. Much like Habitat 67, The New Designers is a collection of songs placed on top, beside and under one another --often at bizarre angles-- to create a unique piece of architecture for listeners to experience. Up close, or at a distance, we sincerely hope that each subjective view taken better stands the test of time than the criminally forgotten exposition itself has.
See, Expo 67 offered us, and the world, a glimpse of what the future could be------and today isn't it.
Hi there, we just got this new widget. It's kinda like a mini profile, it has tracks, video, news etc. If you grab it from our profile page you can add your other fave bands to it and have them all in one place. How cool is that? Enjoy!!
you guys killed it last night!!!!! i went into working there last night, not even knowing at all who was playing and thought it would just be cool to check out those small intimate shows i used to know.
i never even knew what any of you guys looked liked because everytime i saw you guys, you had yer masks on.
anyways, it was cool to meet ranbir and to groove with him. did i mention you guys played a totally awesome set?
Hello from Japan!! just stop to say our information. next our "Bigfish live show" is scheduled on 7th December at Kichijoji MANDA-LA2, Tokyo. Three Japanese Female peaceful singers; Hana Saito, NAORYU and Rika Shinohara play there. it seems heart-warm and acoustic. thanks for checking our live information. ARIGATO

Check out the friend list at Maiden Wine to add Adam Nimoy as one of your friends! He's the son of some guy who played a space alien on one of those Sci/Fi TV shows back in the 60s.
Also make sure to pick up a copy of his new book:
Joe and Darlene at Maiden Wine donated several pictures of Adam and his dad that will be appearing in the book! So everyone go out and give Adam Nimoy your hard earned cash and buy this fascinating anti-memoir!
Hey Guys Whats Up?? I remember the first time i saw you play it was at a church in g-town, I think i was in grade 6 im in grade 10 now, you guys we so awsome!
