      2010 has been quite scarce in terms of words isn't it ?. 
      ...so much to say though !

        Let us fill those empty spaces with some radioactive thoughts.
        
      On the stage side : For those who are not yet 
aware of it, we'll start an Eastern Canadian Tour in  less than 1 week !
 At our sides will play the bands STREAM OF PASSION from Netherlands and
 MANAHIL from Montreal.
      The following bands will also be part of the musical rumble : 

      
      Metric Madness @ Rimouski 
      Instanzia @ Saint-Hyacinthe 
      Elliptic @ Quebec City 
      Inner Control @ Jonquière

        Despised Icon, Misery Index & more @ Rouyn-Noranda 
      Unveil et Smelly Pedros @ Sherbrooke 
      Half Past Four @ Toronto 
      Transe Metal Machine @ Montreal

        Necronomicon, Insides Out & Signs of Chaos @ Ottawa ( without Manahil & Stream of Passion)

        
        To celebrate this pre-pumpkins tour, we'll not stop at one crime...we'll indeed play 2 new songs for the curious minds !

        
        Since we never mentioned the following tidbit in this newsletter
 here it is : We now have an official Facebook page... A lot of you are 
already participating...we love tho read you so keep it up !

        Speaking of novelties...

        After some deep and profound thinking, we finally decided to 
take back the reins of our destiny and go Independent for the release of
 the next album !

        We gave this option a lot of attention/thinking time and the 
conclusion was that we think it's all positive and for the best !

        And the fact of removing intermediaries will let us be even closer to our public!

        
        The album has been completed for a while and we're currently 
working on some re-adjustments so that we can release it as soon as we 
have the ideal conditions. More details to come about a release date. 
Thanks for your patience...it'll be worth it we assure you !

        
        Now...probably a lot of you already heard about Exod's departure
 from the band a few months ago. Some say that he's traveled in time, 
exploded, and thus would be at the origin of the Big Bang.

        But that is one wacky theory...some people are crazy I tell ya !

        The lifestyle and sacrifices that goes with touring is not to 
everyone's taste and it's been the main reason behind his choice ( 
this...and the fact that peanut butter is definitely too hard to find in
 Europe).

        We were already talking about all of this while touring North 
America in 2008 so it's been a well thought decision that we all knew of
 for a long time. 

        That said, it doesn't mean that there won't be more future 
collaborations with him as we're still very good friends and are, as 
always, totally musically compatible...as you'll be able to hear on the 
new album ;)

        
        For the shows, Exod, our favourite cyborg, prepared an 
electronic alter ego (read : a sequence ) which reproduce exactly the 
same sonorities as when he was physically with us. It feels like playing
 with an invisible Exod.

        We're not currently searching for a replacement but we stay open to diverse possibilities !

        
        Talk soon !
