Our first show since Halloween of last year. We will be playing with Mustaphamond. High energy swells and peaks, no vocals, guitar loops, and a drummer to rival time itself. Fun fact, Mustaphamond members played in the Unit Breed for our last show on Halloween 2005.
One year ago and now!
Yes it is October 2006. This year we missed our summer tour but now it's time for new music and live experiences. The grand holly nonsense finally delivered two beautiful souls willing to accept the unyielding lust and tart sting of honest direction from a dictators slack-jawed cracks.
Art Show and New Record!!!
"The Long Long Everlasting" Is finally available on 12" from limbless records. Only 300 pressed.
Art show up until the end of October at Discourage Records 1737 se morrison street, Portland, OR. Your eyes may be ready for some odd disturbing and difficult images, from the great wide openings of whatever might push it's way into the atmosphere.
To many stories but to sum things up we had a great time! Besides getting attacked by skinheads in Mobile AL, surreal Fag bashing in SC, or just tough faces in half waxed half rusted fieros driving donuts around us we made it home safe and broke. We got to swim in the atlantic, rock the hell out of Tulsa OK, drunk dance swimming pool parties in Memphis TN, out of our heads on LSD driving through Texas, lugged our equipment miles up and down hills to play on a storm drain near the ocean in San Pedro CA, showered in a park fountain every morning for four days in Brookly NY, got to play with the Todd and see tons of really good friends back at my old home in San Jose CA. I'll be posting a journal soon and many pictures.
We're back from japan and getting ready to tour the US Aug 15 - Oct 10 2005!!!
I just got back from touring Japan with The Unit Breed! Damn good times, I'm broke and ready for more. So I'm leaving for a two month tour across the US! After many hours of begging and pleading Mr. Harry Stewart will be rocking the drums, Mason Conley flew up from Santa Cruz to lay down some bass, and Joey Stockdale (who has more effect pedals than I do) signed on for second guitar. This will make us a four piece!! I don't think we've been a four piece since 2003. We leave Aug 15th - Oct 10th. We may or may not have our semi new album out that we recorded last year "the long long everlasting". I put up a new song on myspace http://www.myspace.com/theunitbreed but I'm not sure if it's working.
If you can help with a show take a look at our schedule and email me.
