On January 13, 2007 the world lost an amazing person.  His name was Flounder. Before Permanent Midknight started back up he was in a band called Straight Drive.  Flounder was their bass player and in a very short time Kliph and Flounder developed a very close relationship with each other.  I bled onto the stage where you could see the cohesiveness between all the members.  They were a family. 

Fast forward 2 years later,  ex-Straight Drive drummer Chad (now a part of Mego http://www.myspace.com/megorock) came to a practices session with PMK.  During that day Chad had informed Kliph that Flounder wanted his band mates to have some of his cremated ashes.   At that time we were working on a couple new songs.  Not 5 minutes after Kliph received the ashes he wrote the lyrics to the song "Bag Of Ashes". 

Bag of Ashes is about Flounder.  Bag of Ashes is for Flounder.  Bag of Ashes is our tribute to Flounder.  If you have ever lost someone so special in your life that changes your being, opens up your soul, and helps point you in a direction that you never knew existed this song is for them. 

If anyone has some webspace they'd like to donate we'd love to put this song up for download for free!  Hit us up if interested!

Much Love

Bryan, Kliph, Jesse, Ryan, and Deaton
