When I went to Australia last summer (well it was the beginning of winter for you guys ) I met their old guitar player (unless he rejoined?) Andrew Lilley at Guitar Factory and he told me about his band (at the time anyways). Pretty cool dude. Coincidentially a couple days later I saw their demo for sale at Red Eye Records so I picked it up. Indeed, they are pretty badass. I hope they didn't make very many copies and they get real popular so it'll be worth alot of money >
