"Hey Guys-
First of all we would like to thank everybody for the kind words and for making us feel like very welcome members of the B9 family, its been very much appreciated and it has meant a lot. Its been a long time since we put out a full length record and to be honest, there are a lot of reasons for that. Family, other musical projects and just a general need for a break all contributed, but the honest to goodness main reason it took so long (7 years), is that we didn't feel like we were ready to make the best record we possibly could. We all drifted away and lived our lives for while and waited until we felt 100% that we had that record inside us.
We waited until we felt like a new band again, excited, hungry, and free to make a record not because it was time in the touring cycle or in the grand scheme of our "career", and not because of label pressure but because we felt we had a great record inside of us. Its been a long process and so many people have helped us along the way..all the folks at Bridge 9, Chadball, Paul Miner and most importantly, the people who like our band (and sometimes even those who don't) which, seeing as you clicked on this thread, is probably you...so thanks!! Anyways, the record is due to drop on May 27th and we're definitely not a band known for our patience so we figured what the fuck and decided to put the whole thing on line for you to listen to for yourselves. Its going up on AOL as a stream on May 20th, thats a full week before the album comes out and for those going to the record release shows, I would definitely give it a listen or 2. We so fucking proud of this record and it really is from our hearts to your ears and we hope that you like it. If not, we have a great shirt that says "I only like their first album" and we suggest you pick one up.
We also have decided once again to say, what the fuck, and give away 2 songs for free download starting today..like, right now! Go to www.trig.com/h2o/invite and sign up. Once thats taken care of, you'll be able to download 2 free tracks in MP3 format "1995" and "Nothing To Prove". So basically whether your really excited for this record, sitting on the fence or if your straight up expecting it to suck...why not check it out for free and let the music speak for itself? Once again, we didn't make this because we had to, we made it because we wanted to and because this is the music and the message that we feel in our hearts. Thanks tons and we hope you like it"
