We're heading back into the lab to lay down some brand-new hits... stay tuned!

Yo,

We are very pleased to announce that we will be sharing the stage with the legendary punk rock band, The Misfits. The concert will be held on Wednesday, December 3rd at The Valarium in Knoxville, TN. We hope to see all our awesome fans there!

Hey everyone,

Our new album Heart Attack is laying waste to horrible music everywhere and saving 2008 from being another bad year for rock.

The album's kickin' major ass (we're almost sold out of the first pressing!) and lots of people are buying, downloading, stealing, and pirating the thing all over the world, and we are super excited about that.

Anyway, Heart Attack is now streaming over at Last.fm! Just click here to listen to the whole damned thing!

Oh, one more thing... when you get done listening to it, buy it!

Reviews are starting to roll in for Heart Attack and all have been very positive! We did a tee shirt run for the upcoming tour and have a small stock to sell online. Click here to visit our merch page for styles and prices. There’s one item that’s not up yet, it’s a black zip-up hoodie with the "Long Live the American Plague" slogan on it. We don’t have a lot of these and plan to sell all of them on the tour, but since you’re a loyal ’Plague fan(atic), e-mail us back and we’ll tell you how to order if you want one.
