We are now a signed band!! We can finally call ourselvesw professional musicians! :D
We're stoked to announce that we have signed to the amazing Hassle Records. We will be releasing our debut album 'Cutting Our Teeth' with them on January 25th 2010.
We're also releasing the first single from the album, 'Look Alive' as a special EP on November 16th. However this will only be available online and on our UK headline tour. We've added a clip of the song on here so take a listen and let us know what you think. Pre-order will begin later today, stay tuned for more info!
UPDATE 16/10/09

We're shooting a video this Saturday (Oct 17th) for our brand new single 'Look Alive' (taken from our forthcoming album, Cutting Our Teeth)

All you need to do is email us at look.alive@hotmail.co.uk letting us know your full name.

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...
Thanks for accepting :) I saw you in Southampton Joiners a while back and you said me and my friends were the keenest in the room and we were all like WOOP! Seriously can't wait for your album. Just thought i'd add cuz our band needs a bit of promo. It might not be your kind of music but we'd appriciate it ya had a listen :)
Solid job in Brisbane last night boys! I reallyyy enjoyed your set. Can't wait for the album to be released next year. Hope you's come back to Australia real soon. Take care! :)
