I'm not sure what's happening with them...I know there's a 7" of early demos out now on Rok Lok, but I haven't heard anything about an album. In fact I haven't heard anything from those guys in a while.

don't think that 7" is actually out yet is it? It isn't for sale yet on their page.....thought you were doing another 7" or album with them?

I hope we're going to do something soon too, but I'm not sure what their plans are. We were talking about doing a split with them and my band, but that's uncertain as well.

Random things you want us to know about you:

sXe!

I'm an 18 year old self-taught designer with 6 years of experience in Illustrator and Photoshop. I've recently taken up web design and have been getting pretty decent with it. I ride BMX. I'm majoring in business administration, and college is killing my record buying habits. My current turntable cost me a dollar at a yardsale. I've been told it's a Sears/Silvertone SR3000 with duel cassettes and a turntable. It gets the job done. I have a big La Dispute sticker on the side of it.

Guitar is my main hobby. I enjoy reading (when school doesn't interfere), philosophy, drawing, and video games. I also play airsoft and shoot sporting clays competitively.

Been a collector of CDs for a couple of years, only been collecting vinyl for about a year.

I like the arts in all their forms. Film, literature, visual, etc. I spend far too much money on records and my guitar hobby. I'm also a big animal person, and I especially love reptiles.

That's about it, I guess. It's a pleasure to meet you all, my fellow wax lovers! Hope we can chat on the boards!
