ok, I've been slacking on this.
today's band: with honor
I know they are getting huge and all, but I figure I will give them this honor cause they deserver it.

Back in late 2002, I saw a band doing one of their first show in the american legion on Orange CT.

In my opinion, they were waaaaaaaaaay hyped as ex-just about every band in CT since they really sounded like none of those bands. But I didn't really get a good feeling for their music, I'm guessing the sound system there didn't do them much honor since in later shows, they were simply on point with their whole set.
Anyhow, kids moshed it up for them back then (and they still continue today).

a few months later, I aw them at the NEHMF, on a excellent sounding system. it was great. they came off so positive and everyone was just having a good time. Even better was the palladium team neele benifest were they were put up on the main stage of the palladium. I thought they weren't going to be able to pull it off, seeing as it's hard for bands that rely on getting the audience involved to be 15 feet away from them and still include them. I had seen the red chord fail at this a while before (man-o-war show), but with honor pulled it off and played excellently.

it was around this time that they released their 4-song ep on stillborn records (CT). This cd was great, an awesome introduction for people to their music.
they played a bunch of shows around this time that I cought (ICC, fat cats, bombshelter, etc... )

each one getting better and better. They were, at this point, working on their first full length to record it in sept 2003. they took a month off to get the record down.

but it wasn't too long before they were back out again, tour with tons of amazing bands.

playing many of the new sonds that they recorded for the new cd. I think a lot of the "finger in the air" sing-alongers need to get the new cd. I see them all piling up and singing along with the tracks on the cd-ep, but not really knowing the new songs yet.

2004 definitely holds a lot for their band, after ~1 year in existence as a whole, they will see their new CD (Heart Means Everything on Stillborn records) doing well, plus almost non-stop touring with bands like Most Precious blood, sworn enemy, as i lay dying, himsa, shai halud, and probably a spots at NEMHF 2004. Anything else, well.. I guess we'll wait and see.
