We are taking a break from playing and writing, call it an extended holiday. We've had the best time over the past six years and have flogged ourselves to death across the continent and the UK. Thanks to everyone thats supported us, tattooed us on their arm and been a great help along the way. Jordan, Richard and Mike are working on a newer band at the moment, COAL TRAIN. Catch Richard and Jordan live in their other band B>E>A>K. Thanks
PS we have a few T-SHIRTS left and a few cds/12"s lying around

Shit, I'm surprised how saddened I am by news of your extended break. I hadn't seen you play in a while, but when I was living up north a few years ago you were always around. You know what? If someone asked me to recommend them a modern British rock band, I think yours would be the first name that came to mind. Good luck with whatever you're up to. Hope to see you again...
La Folie are having a launch party on the 8th of June at The Forum in Sheffield! £2 advance tickets/£3 on the door! Plus the added bonus of if you film some stuff from the night of us, you or anything else connected and send it us, we will send you a free copy of 'Risus Sardonicus'
