Hello everyone,

this message goes out specially to our fans and friends in Malaysia who are interested in getting our album "You, Me and the Things Unsaid".

Unfortunately, our CDs are not available at any stores in any part of Malaysia. However, you can purchase our album from our label KittyWu Records via mailorder. They can be contacted at kittywurecords@gmail.com or just send them a msg on myspace (they're on our top friends). They accept Paypal or you could send your cash by mail(which is not recommended).

One other alternative, which it's kind of a long shot, would be help us get a show (or more if you can) in your country this december (4th december onwards except 24th). You could rope in some friends to do some DIY show or recommend us to your local promoters. We won't mind playing as long as we have a roof under our heads and food to eat and help with transportation.

This might sound so hardcore punk DIY but that's how we roll. So, let us know if you guys are interested in helping us out!

10th October 2008 - probably one of the most amazing nights of our lives.

Our most sincere thanks go to the following people:

Errol and Lesley from KittyWu - the ones who made us realize our dreams. Thank you for taking care of us and believing in us. We will continue to make you guys proud!

Djohan Johari - for an amazing job on the album art and also the merchandise design. Simply brilliant.

Nick Chan - for managing the sound for us and also for the excellent work on the album. More to come!

Fezz - Awesome visuals as usual! You're great at what you do. May you have more opportunities come your way.

Ronny Laily. Thank you so much for helping out with setting up and tearing down of the show. You're the man Ronny!

The merch and door crew - Heider, Melsteph, Stace, Ili, Lesley's brother (sorry forgot your name!). You guys did a good job!

To the others who were part of the show - Shahran the photographer. John the cameraman. Jared the sound assistant. We really appreciate you guys taking time out to be part of the show.

To the people at Sinema - thank you for letting us take the stage (or cinema rather). We had a truly amazing time. It was a totally kickass place to have released an album.

Lastly, to the people who came, friends old and new, those who bought our cds and merch. Thank you guys so much for coming down. It is people like you who make it all worth it. You're the reason we all keep on going.

"You, Me and The Things Unsaid" will be out in stores pretty soon so keep a lookout for that!

Hello everybody,

I'll make this short and quick. We have the album version of Communication Downbreak to let you guys listen to. It's somehow to show that we're up to something and not just taking a break for no reason. We've been busy picking up the pace for our album. So far things have been good. We hope to get it out by July/August. Keep a lookout!

Second thing, we're playing Home Club next friday on the 20th! It's for the Beat anniversary show and we're sharing the stage with King Kong Jane and we hope you can make it cause we've not played for quite a while and we have some new songs to share.

That's about it! Have a good one!
