out of the nothing arises a bleakness that none but the truly brazen shall know.
a riven promise gives naught but embodiment to the plastic deities of servitude.
many perish never questioning the why or the how, only acting on rote...
conformity is anathema, hypocrisy is anathema, apathy is anathema,
yet to the jaded mind we are anathema.
do you have ardor for the countenance of reform...

Why this name?
Its simple, I (Brett) liked the story of Medea, and Dean liked the sound...
Plus the squirrels told us to do it, and we did.

Do you play live?
We have, and would like to again, its tricky though finding dedicated musicians in our genre, in our city.
Playing live is the real reason we got into music, as the energy it generates is awesome. Also we where in it for the alleged groupies
Speshul Moments: Playing infront of a large African audience who were displeased with the white man music we played...
Also the day after getting kids hidden from us in the same town as the rumors of the devil had spread
(It should be noted we are nice guys!) - Dean

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It exposes a lot of music to a lot of new people, ironically we are seemingly more popular in Europe, due to the net, than we are in our own country
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
And do this for a living, hell yeah...
Band History:
We initially formed in March 2003 as a 4 Piece, being Brett Minnie on Bass/Vox, Dean Christie - Guitars, Matt Scott Drums/Vox, Greg Bedford - Guitars, yet as we grew musically we grew apart and in 2004 Greg & Matt left the band to pursue studies and other musical endevours, Dean & Myself tried various other musos with limited degrees of success, until we inlisted Yosimoto® on Drums and went whole hog from there...
Musically now, we are far more intricate than when we started out
