stickers, etc.


like we said before. we've been extremely busy, trying to stock up on merch, trying to book this tour coming up and not to mention getting our new record finished up as i mentioned earlier on the blog.

now we've got some brand new stickers from sticker guy! they just came in the mail about 20 minutes ago and if we see you at our show on Saturday at the chaos cafe, then you will not only get to see them too but you will be the proud owner of such stickers if you desire. and i know you do desire.

new press photos

our friend kimba (unfortunately i can't find her website) recently took a bunch of photos for us. vote for your favorite one by leaving comments on our myspaceadoodle.

i like this one the most...this one is cute too.

Shows are awe some.

I met this promoter whom I shall name "Andy Warhol Junior". This is because he was a biter of a style which doesn't make sense to bite. Extra LONG red leather trench?>>?? NOOOOO, you are so GAYYYY!! You're 'art' space is a karate studio by day, and a practice space by night! I wouldn't even care that we had a bad show, but a good band on tour played tonight and they had to suffer to.

Thank god that the lord made sparks brand malt liqour instead.

Seattle Loves AristeiA (and AristeiA loves Seattle)


One week ago today we played The Comet, one of Seattle's staples in the indie music scene, with our friends Hockey and had a great time. The people seemed really into what we were doing. We felt good. The audience felt good. It was good times all around. Plus we actually sold some merch. Nice. The guys from the first band, Division of Mars, were super nice (going as far as letting us borrow some equipment when ours was being "difficult"). Then later Hockey blew the power for part of the club (the power that allows people to play music). But after a while, it was fixed and the dance party that is a Hockey show continued.

And, as it turns out, we got a little write up in Sound on the Sound, a popular local Seattle music blog. You can read it here.

Album Art almost done!
























Our good friend Anthony has been kind enough to take on the challenge of creating the artwork for our forthcoming record. he has sent a few through email and i must say they are quite impressive. i'm really excited about the way these turned out and can't wait to see the originals!

once again, the album will be called "How to Kill A King" running at 6 songs and 25 minutes. It will be available sometime in early September if all goes accordingly.

there will be more posted about this soon.

that image is my favorite so far.
