Currently available on Pin Drop Records and distributed through Lumberjack, Very, Choke, Revelation, Goodlife, RPP, Lifeforce, Life Sentence and many others nationwide and abroad, we have the Gaining Ground seven inch, Nothing In Return CD, and our newest Pursuit In The Face Of Misfortune seven inch. We also have a few songs on some obscure compilations. The players are Erik Paulsen on drums, Bill Cole on guitar, Chris Berthiaume on vocals, and Desmond Connolly on bass. You can learn more about those guys in the "members" section.











These have been described as "sincere hardcore", "intense and moshy", and "full of energy and power"... Hear it for yourself...
