I'll be distributing the new HIGH SPIRITS 7" (Let's Rock b/w Running Home) when it arrives in a few weeks. It is $3 plus shipping. Test pressing was approved a while ago, so I'll take orders anytime.

You can hear the songs here: www.myspace.com/highspiritsrock

The band is also doing a 9-date Midwest tour with ZUUL and CHAPSTIK in June:

June 18 - Brass Rail - Ft. Wayne IN
June 19 - Small's - Hamtramck MI
June 20 - Now That's Class - Cleveland OH
June 21 - Blue Rock Tavern - Cincinnati OH
June 22 - Little Hamilton - Nashville TN
June 23 - PK's - Carbondale IL
June 24 - Fubar - St. Louis MO
June 25 - Blue Moose - Iowa City IA
June 26 - Red Line Tap - Chicago IL

And here is what it may sound like:

I don't think I've ever seen a metal band in matching outfits before- y'all REALLY don't want to be accused of hyping bands by wearing their T-shirts, huh? :) Just don't go all Tales of Medusa with your demo distribution and it's all good :lol:

Song sounds great; y'all ever get into the Southeast and I'll try to catch the show

Excellent single, good job again! Best song is "Running Home", i love the solo at the end. Good that you haven't changed the sound at all.

When will you play in Germany by the way? :D

Thanks as always for the cool remarks and feedback here. As I said, we want to play in Europe more than anything else right now. We had brief contact with one festival organizer re. this summer, but we would have had to pay for our own flights, which is just impossible.

Here's another video, day 9 of the tour so my voice is maybe a bit past its prime, but luckily the crowd is helping a lot.

Tour setlist was:

Wanted Dead
I Need to Know
Torture
Night After Night (a few nights)
Never Going Back
Running Home
High Spirits
Don't Look Down
