SINKING SHIPS - BandUpdate
Sänger Danny hat folgendes Bandupdate im MySpace Blog der Band unter www.myspace.com gepostet:
"a lot has happened in the last few months with our band, our label, our members... so heres a quick update on what the hells going on with us.
first off, WE ARE NOT BREAKING UP. its been a rough couple months but we still have more stuff we want to do, so we arnt ready to call it quits yet. we have parted ways with our label revelation records, and our drummer andy is moving to boston though.
i want to make a few things clear about these two things. we left rev. they did not "drop" us. this is why... bob shedd

best dude. done.
we just released TWO 7"s, one on revelation (ten) and one that i put out myself (with a massive amount of help from bob shedd). this is a tour only 7" and theres 500 of them, but most people dont realize it exists cause we've only had it at sound and fury and in europe.
i still have about 200 of em, and though its only supposed to be a tour thing, i will be putting a few up on our new merchstore. this will be going up hopefully sometime next week. if you tried to buy anything from our merch now store and it was sold out of sizes, im sorry. we wont be working with them anymore, and i will be running everything from our myspace site. with control of the site, we can do more cool shit with it, such as limited runs of shirts and merch. check it out when its up.
since we left rev we are planning on doing our next lp ourselves. it might not be the smartest thing to choose to put out a record ourselves instead of having rev do it... but fuck it. we'll see how it goes. so far we know its going to start as 1000 lps, and we will figure out the cds when we get to it. i mean who the fuck buys cds anymore? we should start recording sometime in march/april. ill probly do a limited 7" of the japan songs at some point between now and then too, but we'll how that goes too.
and just because we are doing this next one ourselves doesnt mean we are swearing off labels all together. so far we havent had the greatest experiences (thank you jeff), but hopefully we will work get to with someone else down the road.
finally, i wanted to say a few things about touring. we are done for the year, and so far in 2008 we have japan in march, europe in june, and we should be going down the west coast again sometime in january or february. after that theres nothing planned so far. we probly wont be getting out there as much as we did last year, but we'll do our best to tour as much as we can.
anyway, thanks for reading this long ass message.
danny - sinking ships."
