Thanks to everyone who came to see us at the various venues last weekend. The Railway in Evesham was fantastic, The Greyhound in Beeston was superb and we had an awesome gig at Bar South in Kingswinford.

So, the last two gigs of 2009 are upon us. Sunday 27th December, you can catch us performing at Subside, Birmingham in aid of the Birmingham Blitz Dames Christmas fundraiser. We will have our good friends Signify supporting us too. Interested? You can see more details on the Facebook Event.

Wednesday 30th December will see us perform for the last time in 2009 at The Roadhouse Birmingham. We have support from Nottingham based band Old Basford. Details can be found on the Facebook Event.

Finally, thanks to everyone who has purchased the EP thus far.

Someone posted a review of the EP on HMV, quoted below:

These guys know what they are doing, and this debut love child is a testament to my testament…

Independent music is rocking it more than ever, and these guys are standing proud at the centre. Birmingham has produced some of the worlds greatest rock bands, and she seems to have given birth to another mucus dripping beauty.

Keep your eyes on the Horizon, there is more where this came from, you can be assured…
