Acheron One Year Anniversary Party & BBQ

Hey, Bill, what’s the deal with this?

“The festivities begin at 5pm. We’ll have a pig roast, some assorted other meats and sides, and a veggie grill for those who forsake the pleasures of the flesh. Bands will start at 8:30.”

Sounds pretty cool, and it’s all-ages and FREE so you have no excuse not to be there. Thanks Bill!

‘Furnace’ is Officially Out Today

‘Furnace’ is officially out today via Seventh Rule, and we’d just like to take a moment to thank anyone who has ever been to a show, bought a t-shirt, booked us, written about us, listened to us, told a friend about us, let us crash at their place, bought us a beer, played a show with us, or otherwise helped us out. We’re not gonna name names, because we’d inevitably forget someone and that would be a total dick move, but you know who you are. Thank you.

Download ‘Furnace’ – Name Your Price

You can download our new record, ‘Furnace,’ for free from any number of illegal rapidshare / mediafire / megaupload torrent blogs and sites. We have no problem with this whatsoever. But, we suggest you download the record directly from the source, for a number of reasons. 1.) You know exactly what you’re getting: no tinny 92k mp3s, no mislabeled tracks, etc. 2.) Options: you can choose mp3, FLAC, or other formats. 3.) Name your own price, and yes this includes ‘free.’

Ultimately, any way you choose to get ahold of ‘Furnace’ mp3s is ok with us. We’re just glad you’re listening. And, should you choose to own the record in a physical format, order it from Seventh Rule or Vendetta, check your local record store (if they don’t have it, ask them to order it), or get it from us at a show.
