Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, it's Tuesday, which means it's time for a new studio video.

Once again, we've also added a 30 second clip of one of the new songs at the end of the video, so watch the entire video all the way through!
For those of you that haven't already heard the first two songs that we've released from the upcoming album, you can hear them both right now on our Myspace page. The songs are titled The Thespian and To Be Scared By An Owl, and they are both available on iTunes.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, today is the day for you all to pre-order our new story, The Emptiness! This album is something that you've never witnessed before and we can't wait for you to hear and see it all.
The album itself is packaged in a wallet-like CD holder and it includes two booklets; one with the lyrics and illustrations depicting "The Emptiness," and the other booklet is the story of "The Emptiness" told through the eyes of the album's main character, "The Artist."

Alright, so thanksgiving is over so I definitely need to get back to eating healthy and working out more. Cross Country ended about two or so weeks ago, and I just feel like a bum because I haven't moved until yesterday but yesterday kind of made up for it. I did 30 hardcore vigorous minutes on the eliptical, rockin' to some of my favortite "In The Zone" music like System Of A Down, Asking Alexandria, and a few more that I'll post below. However, I do admit my hardcore choices caused me to headbang into the handles of the eliptical...namely Texas In July. Owch, but worth it. Hah. Then I did about 7 minutes on the eliptical with a free weight (3 pounds because it was all I could find, else I'd probably do more.) in my right hand doing motions with that. Then I switched to the left for 7 more minutes. I know it was only 3 pounds but you can feel it after a little while. Yeah, it was nice and I feel powerful today.
My Workout Playlist:
1. "Reptar King Of The Ozone" - The Devil Wears Prada 2. "Tiliting The Hourglass" - Alesana 3. "Cigaro" - System Of A Down 4. "Hook, Line, And Sinner" - Texas In July 5. "Candlelit Dinners With Inamorta" - Asking Alexandria 6. "I-E-A-O-A-I-O" - System of A Down 7. "Ambrosia" - Alesana 8. "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid" - The Offspring 9. "Chelsea Smile" - Bring Me The Horizon 10. "Love Rhymes With Fuck You" - Jeffree Star 11. "I Was Once, Possibly, Maybe Perhaps A King." - Asking Alexandria
Oh And if you haven't already joined the infection...
Okay, so my friends and I have been OBSESSED with Asking Alexandria. A few of my good buddies got to go see them play with Alesana (our favorite band) down at Allentown (I missed it and they won't let me forget it!). (However, to get the story straight, the guys who went and i were obsessed before they got to see them live.) They were apparently unbelievable, they introduced us all to some of the songs before the concert, and basically my entire group of friends has been under their spell ever since. Check them out! I promise you won't be dissapointed. Some good songs of theirs to check out: "Candlelit Dinners With Inamorta" and "Hey There, Mr. Brooks" which features Shawn Milke of Alesana.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, the time has come! We have released the first song from our upcoming story “The Emptiness”. The song is called “To Be Scared By An Owl” and we are so excited to finally be giving you the next piece, the next taste of our saga. You can check it our right now on our Myspace page. The song featured is the tenth chapter of our story and draws its title from the turn of the century phrase “I live too near a wood to be scared by an owl” which was a way of describing someone to be fearless in a given situation. The song can be purchased right now on iTunes so please go check it out. We hope you love the song as much as we do and we cannot wait to share the rest of our adventure with all of you!
