I havent posted anything last week cause we havent practiced for a few weeks. Yesterday I arrived in rapid at ten in the morning and got home about eight thirty that night. The day consisted of alot of practicing, goofing around and having fun. We are making sixty copies of the single which will be for sale at the show this saturday, there all limited edition pressings. FREE show this weekend at Ernie Novembers in Rapid City. Doors open at eight. Two bands, Primordial Flame and Obsession In Suns. All instrumental. There has been alot of hype about the show, people have been talking and wondering what each of us have been up to since our previous bands. There excited and curious to see if we can pull this off. I can't wait for this saturday.

Today I thought that I should discuss how the band got together. Nic and Laura used to be in an amazing progressive metal band called Anamosa. Those guys definitely had the potential to go places with their music. After those guys split up, Nic and Laura started to do an acoustic project with a friend of mine by the name of Blaine W. on drums. That only lasted a few months to my knowledge. Nic continued to record bands in his studio but got board with it and wanted to start another band. Nic began recording so that he would be able to record his own music/band. He began to record a friends band and then kept getting referrals until it basically became his second job. Gabe got introduced to Nic at a show and began to talk and found similar interests in music. Both of them were aware of eachothers previous bands and thought it would be cool to start collaborating and writing together. They had a few drummer in mind that they wanted to come play for them but most of them didnt have what they were looking for. I had met Nic a week prior to him calling me up to come play for them at my last bands farewell show. Nic got my number from a friend and I was driven down to Rapid that afternoon after he'd called. The first pracitce consisted of Gabe and Nic on guitar, Laura on keys and myself on drums in Nics basment one sunday afternoon and the rest is history.

I'm finding it harder to think of things to post on here. There hasn't really been anything going on recently that is blog worthy? Were currently mixing the album, should be done here soon. We will have copies up for purchase at the November 30th show in rapid. Were currently trying to get a Chicago based black metal band (whose name escapes me at the moment) on the line up for the show. hope to see you there.
