Thank you so much to everyone who's already grabbed a copy. Its available from all good stores around the UK, and online, where people from outside of the UK can buy it on import if you don't mind spending a little extra.
New tour dates coming soon as well!
UPDATE 29/01/10
Everyone who ordered one of our free goody bags from Hassle Records should now have received one. If you haven't just send an email to info@hasslerecords.com and they'll sort something out for you. Just one more weekend to get through without Cutting Our Teeth!!!

UPDATE 21/01/10
Less than 2 weeks to go now until the UK release of our debut album, Cutting Our Teeth! If you applied for a free goody bag via our label, they are on their way to you now! Unfortunately we are not taking any more orders, but we'll hopefully be making this a fairly regular thing so look out for it again soon and be quicker! :P
We can now confirm that the album will also be released through Hassle Records in Germany on February 5th and in Australia on February 12th through Shock Records. As soon as we confirm other release across the world we'll let you know, but remember most online stores will ship overseas so you can purchase the album on import from wherever you live.
UPDATE 08/01/10
What do you want first, the good news or the bad news?
The Good news is we are main support to Thrice on their UK dates this month. In fact it's not just good news, its amazing news! Hopefully you guys can come out and check a show. Tickets are available now and selling fast.
The bad news is we have had to stall the release date of Cutting Our Teeth, again. But this time only by a week! It's now released on February 1st. So so so sorry to everyone who's been waiting for this album since last year, thank you so much for sticking with us, i promise we're not doing it deliberately, these things have generally been out of our control! x

A massive thank you to everyone around the UK who came out to a show on our 3rd headline tour. To see that amount of people still coming out to see us before the release of our debut album really does blow our minds and we can't thank you guys enough.

UPDATE 26/09/09
Yo, regarding the MSN account, rather than having set times that each member will be online, we're now just going to wing it and go on whenever as we found ourselves wanting to go online even though we hadn't told you guys about it. So yeah, add us and whenever we're online don't be afraid to say hi! We're playing in Redhill today, never ever heard of this place before, but sometimes they're the best types of shows...
UPDATE 24/09/09
Just a reminder that Jack will be on our MSN account tonight from 7pm to chat to you scallywags. If you haven't heard about this, check our latest blog entry, that will explain all.
UPDATE 22//09/09
Day 8 on tour with The Used and Hexes. We're in Birmingham tonight, apparently its the last ever show at the Academy, as they're shutting it down to make way for the new one. So hopefully we can literally tear it down, who's coming? Take note.
All the shows on this tour have been good fun, thanks to everyone who's come out, especially the people we've met who said they just came for us. To buy a ticket for like £15 just to see the support band is incredible, we can't thank you enough.
UPDATE 21/09/09
Want to talk to us on MSN? Read our latest blog entry 'CHAT TO WATO ONLINE' to find out how!
UPDATE 20/09/09
We just put up a brand new track! It's from our debut album 'Cutting Our Teeth'. Its been so long since we put up any new material so we're stoked that you guys finally get to hear something. The album is coming out in November, we don't have a definite date just yet, but its going to be out for our headline tour! Which we will see you all at! Won't we??! :P
UPDATE 17/09/09 Hey,
Dan here. I'm currently sitting in our travelodge room in Glasgow on our day off. I'm about to get my hair cut by Alfie, should i be worried... I'll post a picture of it on our Twitter later. We're getting a Nando's tonight, so amped. So this tour has been a good laugh so far, we haven't really toured the UK since the FFAF tour in March so its been nice to be on the road again. Cardiff and Newcastle, you were well behaved, but that's not always a good thing... Thanks for having us though. Glasgow tomorrow is sold out so we're holding out for a big one. I know you all hate us at the moment because we promised a new song up this week and haven't done it. It is coming, honest! And it will blow your mind (not a guarantee) Stay strong wato bears.
UPDATE 13/09/09 Cheers to everyone who came to the Swindon 12 Bar show and Butserfest this weekend. We had a blast! Expecially all the people who queued up for our signing at the Cheer Up Tent, that was insane! We're off on tour with The Used now. Cardiff, Newcastle and Leeds still have some tickets left, the other dates are completely sold out. New song up from our album this week! YES!
UPDATE 07/09/09
Hey! So what does everyone think of the new lay out? It follows the theme of the artwork for our brand new album 'Cutting Our Teeth' which is available from November, just in time for headline tour of the UK which we've just announced. We hope to see as many of you there as our last headline tour back at the start of the year. We'll be chucking on a new song from the album in the next week or so so keep your eyes and ears peeled for that! Anyway, Summer is officially over, i hope none of you are depressed to be back at school / college / uni whatever it is you do with your lives. Come and see us on tour with The Used next week, that might cheer you up...
