Deep in the forest a call was sounding, and as often as he heard this call, mysteriously thrilling and luring, he felt compelled to turn his back upon the fire and the beaten earth around it, and to plunge into the forest, and on and on, he knew not where or why; nor did he wonder where or why, the call sounding imperiously, deep in the forest.
Current News (August 07):
We just finished mixing our new (and first) recording. Major kudos to New Improved Recording and Aaron Prellwitz who recorded and mixed the whole shebang. Thanks Aaron it sounds awesome. We are hunting for a label but hope to release soon.

Tom Ammaniano (state assemblyman from San Francisco) just introduced a
bill into the state assembly to tax and regulate marijuana as we do
alcohol -- i.e., it would be legalized, taxed, and regulated. Like
alcohol, sales would be limited to folks over 21, penalties would be in
place for dui, sale to minors, etc. in other words, it sounds like the
right approach. The bill's official number is AB390, and more info will probably be available soon at www. norml. org and www. mpp. org.
If you have a minute, call and/or email your state assembly person and
Senator to encourage them to support the bill. You can look up their
contact info online based on your zip code:

Feel free to pass this along. The bill is fighting an uphill battle
against a vast legacy of misguided and uninformed policy, and it will
only have a chance of passing if people speak up in favor.
This bill will provide California with one billion dollars of revenue each year (each ounce is taxed $50)
VERSUS: three of Edinburgh’s finest noise-hungry racketeers are set to mash up and pound out a shrill of lug-piercing sonics at the Wee Red. Using a format that’s never before graced an Auld Reekie stage, the Bear Scotland triumvirate of The Foundling Wheel, Dead Boy Robotics and Enfant Bastard will set up concurrently and duel track to track, concocting scintillating aural juxtapositions that ignite the synapses with waves of neuron-transcending clatter.
The Foundling Wheel: builds noise-saturated, melody-laced mountains of programmed polyrhythms and bit-crushed distortion.
Enfant Bastard: circuit-bending drum-machine-addled anti-folk that can rarely be arsed to finish what it started.
