First - We will be opening for one of the UK’s biggest bands, Biffy Clyro on May 30th in Portland, OR at Doug Fir.

This is our review of Light Year
We had the opportunity to give our own analysis on our new record thanks to the people at www.reviewrinserepeat.com Here are each of our thoughts on each individual song off Light Year. Enjoy our thoughts.
“Celebration Song”
Aaron Tollefson: This song stemmed from a riff we’ve been working on for a long time. From a guitar standpoint, its fairly bizarre just because of the weird...
Together we create a scene.
What happens when you have four amazingly talented bands of different genres play on the same night? Magic is what happens! There are so many great bands in this wonderful city of ours. We all might play slightly different styles of “Rock” music, but we all play for the same reasons. The pure love and passion to create music. We feel honored to say we are from Portland, cause this is a...

We are alive.
“Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. Its all in how you carry it. Pain is a feeling - your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for...

These lyrics are something special and I think they will hit home with all of you. Aaron and Kile are singing much more on all these songs as well. Their voices complement each...
