won the Paragon /MQM Metal contest last night (Jan. 18/08). The event was hosted at "The Reverb" in Toronto. The band would like to thank all the people who made it possible and the fans who came out and had a great time. Other bands on the bill were Teach Her Treason, Evil Or Divine, Dragheel, and Shadows In Red.

You wanted it, you got it! The NEW HOT SINGLE ...THIS IS OUR LIFE..(Click Here) is here as promised and let me say that it is a true classic. The subject of the song addresses our current political and economical crisis. I was moved at the brilliant lyricism ... and did I mention the Guitars! You wanted the team back together well here it is, typical Dwyer and Lessard as they do so well in every live perfomance, turn it up a notch. Lessard's Love and Dwyers rage make this a true classic.

returned to Stratford last weekend and played what only can be called a marathon. Unfortuntly, there was an injury forcing opening band "The Blasters" ( featuring alumni member Scotti Wilby) to cancel. Since love to play, they took advantage of this, and turned a negative into a positive by belting out 24 songs in a two and a half hour set that left Stratford fans breathless!... and eager for a return date. Former drummer, Jay Williams came up and performed "Coming Home" with the band, which is the first time the song has been played live in more than three years. Also, another former drummer, Scott Wilby graced the audience by picking up a guitar as the band played Ozzy Osbourne's classic "Crazy Train" with three screaming guitars.

has released a three song preview for there forthcoming album. Since the Disk is not expected out until a April 2008, the band have put forth a sampler for the fans. The three songs on the EP are: Afraid, Just Another Kill and This is our Life. The Disc will be available at events.

WWW.METAL.COM's Lyric page has been updated and a new blog section has been added as well.

Would like to thank everyone whom has emailed or contacted them in regards to song selection for the upcoming album. We appreciate your input and have listened!

rocked a packed venue last night, burning the house down to the ground with their intense fire. Gus Adams joined guitar god Joel Dwyer on stage during the encore as left once again the audience begging to keep playing! The band received a standing ovation. "We want more", they should have played all night, they were awesome" says Jeff a fan left with a permanent reminder that he had seen the best. The Area's fans are in luck as the band loved playing for them, so talks are in place to see the band return soon.

are pleased to announce that Gus Adams has joined their ranks, filling the huge void left by long time member Jay Williams on Drums. Adams has been playing drums for over 10 years and offers a lot both as a drummer and fitting the team. Adam was selected out a selected pool of talented musicians, personally picked by Guitar Shredder Joel Dwyer.
