"Beer Pressure" Streaming at Punknews →
Punknews is streaming a brand new song off of our upcoming split with Gifts From Enola. In regards to the audio quality, it doesn’t sound very good, figure it’s the Punknews player, but whatever. Hope you enjoy it!
Don’t forget to pick up a copy of the split if you haven’t ordered it yet!

Caravels is a post-hardcore band from Henderson, NV. They’re about twenty minutes out of Las Vegas so I’ll just say they’re from America’s casino city. I’m sure there are other gambling cities, but you...

Another Tour Update
After 4 grueling days in Gallup, NM, our van has been repaired and we are finally able to resume tour. We are extremely excited and relieved to be on the road again. If it wasn’t for the unbelievable amount of encouragement we received during the last few days, we would not have been able to continue tour. To be a part of such a supportive community is incredibly humbling to us. Thank you...

Tour Troubles
Hey all, a bit of unfortunate news. Our van is currently stationed outside an auto shop in Gallup, New Mexico. We broke down late last night on the way to the second show of tour in Albuquerque. After consulting various mechanics around town, there appears to be a crack in one of the gasket heads, which is unfortunately a costly repair. A few people have expressed interest in donating whatever...
d0llfaceee asked: Any chance of Topshelf doing a second pressing of the Floorboards LP? Oh, and I hope you guys are able to book San Francisco or San Jose. It'd be great to see you live!

Fall Tour dates
So we tweaked the dates a bit, changed a few around, added some, subtracted some. Unfortunately, we had to remove the Canada dates which we are particularly saddened by. But, on the other hand, that means we were able to add a few cities we had previously omitted. Once again, if you can help at all with any of the dates, it would be overwhelmingly appreciated. Also, if we managed to skip your...
justdontevenworryaboutit asked: Thank you! I'm glad you guys try to play all age shows, because there are far too many bands that don't really care about that and play bar shows. But I'll be living in Seattle by November so I'll see you then. I'll make sure to get into the show!

As per request, the lyrics for both Floorboards and the Earthling Sessions.

thesaddestcat asked: Hey guys, I was at the tsl show at Yayo Taco and you guys were great (can't say that about the crowd)! My question is when's your split with Gifts from Enola releasing? Also, what are the two new tracks called?
News!
For those that missed it, yesterday we announced a few things that we are incredibly excited for:
-Our Floorboards EP will be getting the vinyl treatment thanks to Topshelf Records. Newly remastered for vinyl, it will feature new artwork and also contain our earlier 3-song release The Earthling Session as bonus tracks. Pre-orders for this will go up very, very soon.
-Our next release following...
Anonymous asked: Hey guys. 7" ordered today on the Topshelf Store. Stoked to hear the two songs on my own vinyl player! Questions: Can I expect a repress of "Floorboard" and can I expect a tour in the Europe soon? Keep up the good work guys. Cheers from France.
