It's been long overdue for an update and the singer search presses on.  We have been in our studio working out a plethora of new and unreleased material.  We appreciate all the feedback and thousands of messages so far.  I would just like to take this time to reiterate a few stipulations and very important traits we are looking for, and not looking for (read our last blog).  NO Emo singers please!!!!!!!!!  Must be over 21, must look good, must be in shape, must be able to sing, must know how to write songs, must be very bro, must not be a liar, must not be Charles Manson, must be a hard worker, must be an american and not an americant, must have musical influences that range outside of the last five years of whining, must be great!

We have some videos coming soon!   We have old tour footage compiled from the last couple of tours we'll post soon for your enjoyment.  We will also be starting regular video blogs as things progress and we'll announce our newest band member officially.  

Final note.  We understand that some of you are upset over the loss of our former singer.  He had an amazing voice at one time yes.  Hitler was a pretty good painter too, but I hear he was kind of a dick!  We are moving on now.  Help us move on and find us our new singer.  Much Love

Adriel

Good luck Adriel. What kind of vocalist are u guys looking for? Other than presence, good morals, and the ability to sing, who would you compare to what would fit your needs? Seth.

..eli may have had a great voice, but he was an asshole.. saw you guys with drowning pool and saliva last year up here in seattle, and the fucker couldnt even be bothered to meet the fans afterwards, but the rest of the band was more than willing...btw, thanks for autographing the ticket for me....that was second show, and at both i met the opening band, the other group was black stone cherry. consider you guys to be equal in my book, both as people and musically....different styles but equally badass........you guys have my support in your actions, as long as you guys continue to write good songs and that the singer has his act together....you were so close to exploding and it all dissapeared, lets see how long it takes you to get it all back, eh?........best wishes,....Mike..

Too bad like 99% of the world is Charles Manson himself.

Most unfortunate.

Tony Lovato would be the best replacement. Ask him, he may be interested.

Charlie

 
..Hey,

My name is Charlie.  I have 7 years of proforming experience and my head is properly fitted to my body.  I was turned on to your band this weekend by Topher, the drummer for the band I currently sing for.  I was supprised to find you are in need of a new singer, but I know in a band shit happens and not always the way you want it to.  I would like to try out for City Sleeps.  I am not going to try to tell you that I rock or bullshit you, I will say that I do what I do and I do it well.  My voice kinda matches your former singer.  I am not a copy cat, the style's comprarable, similar but not exactly the same.  A cross between Brandon Boyd and Chris Cornell. Topher tells me that you guys live in E. Point or one of you do.  I am there twice a week or more.  Look forward to meeting with you.  I do not have any Youtube vid's but I do have  some recordings I can send to you if you like.  I would rather "audition"  but it's your band. 

See Ya,

Charlie..

Good luck you guys. I saw you in concert with Saliva and Drowning Pool here in El Dorado, AR. It was amazing, but I can totally understand. Hope the search goes well. Happy hunting. ..

You should get together with Philip & Tommy of Steadlur. I hear they are looking for a drummer and bassist now. Maybe the bassist bit would cause a problem... but I reckon if you guys got together it could be an awesome Atl supergroup!

I have been listening to some of "Not an Angel" the album...just heard it yesterday and I love it so far. Definitely a bummer about the singer guys. If you were closer I'd try out, but I'm a year too young...sucks too cuz I can sing...been doin it for years. Actually production/composition in general.

Have you ever considered orchestral strings as a sub-theme? If so...hook it up. I was in an orchestra for 9 years and conducted for 2. There aren't a lot of instruments I can't play, but I live in Washington. Doesn't help much.

Good luck in your search!! Love the music! Definitely wanna see you live if you come out.


Matt
