Currie is extremely excited to be working with a great and friendly company and as all you drummers know sticks are extremely important, as not only do we break shit loads, but we also rely on the perfect feel, and these have it!

Supporting FEAR FACTORY

08.04.10

Yeah that’s right folks we supported the legendary FEAR FACTORY in the Spring and Airbrake Belfast on Tues 3rd Aug. A nearly sold out show with over 550 heads through the door and many of whom were lining the barrier for us.

A big thanks to all the people who piled into watch us, it really made us feel appreciated. Thanks to everyone who grabbed some merch and to those who managed to get a free 2 track promo (140 passed out so apologies for those who didn’t get one). Thanks to and all at CDC for giving us such an amazing opportunity, and making it a dream come true and the guys at Wakiki for doing such an amazing job on light and sound. Thanks to all our stage hands and merch folk for making everything run so smoothly.

Fear Factory were the nicest bunch of lads ever, got to hang back stage for ages and get pics and signatures and just generally was made to feel welcome and they expressed how great the Belfast audience was, and how they loved how well the crowd responded to them after a 9 year absence.

They def went out of their way to give back to the fans be choosing to walk through the venue and on and off the bus for everyone to meet them, words can’t describe the buzz I’m on right now.

Again, cheers everyone for giving us the experience of a lifetime.

Check out ‘Powershifter’ live at the show… holy shit!!

Recording for Podcast & EP

05.28.10

So we’ve been busy finishing off our tour with Kill ‘Em Dead Cowboy over here in Ireland, and raised enough money to afford our tour bus to take us over to England in July/August time. So all in all a great success.

Just before we embarked on the tour we agreed with our friend Matt Hazley to record a live (ish) session for his podcast website http://www.imprintthisonyourmind.co.uk

We recorded 4 tracks at ‘My First Recorder’ studios Belfast and the coolest thing about it all is that the lovely engineer Simon masters all his recordings analogue, something that really pleases our retro geek side!

We documented the short recording and you can see a video of it below.

Tracks include:
-Wolf Brigade
- Sieving Secrets
- 1980 Fuck
- Nothing Sacred
