BFA tour/rest of 2010/Denver show Dec. 7th W/ Diocletian, Blasphemophager, Speed Wolf, No Thought @ Blastomat

Howdy Partners,
Denver: We have a show at the Blastomat on Dec. 7th!!!!!!




The touring bands are fucking amazing! Not an experience you want to miss, who knows when they'll be back in the states??????


Thank you to everyone who helped us with shows/came out during this last October/November tour. We had the opportunity to play with some great bands and meet some good people. There are a couple of videos below. If you took any pictures or footage, please forward them to: Clingingtothetreesofaforestfire@hotmail.com

Also, if you are looking for our merch store, facebook, myspace, lastfm, i like, or twitter, you can find all of them here:

The rest of 2010 looks bleak for us all on a personal level. We will spend the rest of 2010/early 2011 writing songs that reflect this attitude, as well as trying to get out to play some shows regionally over the weekends (NM,CA,WY,NE,NV,TX,AZ, i'm talking to you). Stay tuned, tell your friends, thank you for your support.

February 2010 news.

Hello!

We are just 19 days away from going in to record our next record with Dave Otero at Flatline Audio (Cephalic Carnage, Catheter, etc etc...). We Have 14 Songs and are very excited to get them recorded. It's our slowest, fastest, and dirtiest material to date. We will also have a new label announcement in the next coming weeks as well.

We have a few dates posted for a summer tour, but not very much booked yet. Feel free to contact us if you think you can help us with a good show. We will play DIY spots, bars, whatever.

In other (DENVER) news Ethan and Zach have a new band called KEEP (Depressive Adult Contemporary DOOM) and they are playing a show at BAR BAR (21st and Champa, downtown) on Friday. Show starts at 9. Black Sleep of Kali, and Dripfed are also playing. If you do not live in Colorado (or if you have never heard these bands and you do) and are reading this, please check out these bands, they are our good friends and play awesome music.

Ethan will be leaving for tour with DEATH OF SELF in March, check these dates out if you live on the west coast. First show is in Denver with Portland's Transient and NYC's Communion. DEATH OF SELF is also playing at 3 kings tavern this Saturday with Enemy Reign, Vale of Pnath, and Decay. Please check out these bands as well if you already haven't.

Guess that's it for now. Thanks for reading.
