The 'Bullet' ep was released on bad samaritan records in '04 which was followed by 'Saskatchewan' in 2007.
Next will be the first full band offering in 'long kesh'to be a co-label release, summer 2011.
reviews-EXCLAIM! AUG 2004
This band's claim of playing genuine acoustic hardcore is one they back up wholeheartedly on this emotinal debut EP.Led by the powerfull vocals of Jason Dwyer, the band's sound is similar to that of Grade's few acoustic releases. Dwyer's rough delivery sounds like it would be better suited barking out hardcore chants, but the out-of-place feeling it creates brings the songs on Bullet to a whole new level.Co-conspirator Matt Coverly's guitar and piano touches create an exquisite atmosphere on each song, particularly the devastating "This Song Is A Bullet" whose cry of "This song is a bullet for a friend/ Who was raped repeatedly by four men/ When she was only 17 years old" is as heavy sonically as it's subject matter is.A touching record that plays with emotions without ever venturing into "emo" territory.Summer of 92 prove that hardcore can be played with only an acoustic guitar and all of your heart.
SCENE MAGAZINE-JUL 2004
.they know how to rock the campfire, singing songs your drunken uncle could've written from his bathroon floor.Vocalist Jason Dwyer sound like he downs Jack Daniels then chews and swallows the bottle for good measure. This song is a bullet is a stunning and sincere sonic sentiment stemming from rapeLend your ears before they're bitten off and kissed better.
