Sinch Video Interview Part 2

Anyway, you can find the interview in the multimedia section.

This week we have a recording of our recent appearance on 94.1 WYSP’s EXPOSED. We did an on-air interview with Spike and also performed two songs acoustically.

As usual, this can all be found in the multimedia section.

The first two things you might have noticed if you hang out on the message boards. So, old news I guess for you people. But whatever. Here it is:

Sinch deel 1
This is a video interview (part 1 apparently) with Jamie that happened back in December when he went with Tony over to Europe to talk to some people and see some things and etc. We’re still trying to figure out the point of that whole thing. Regardless, an interview was done and filmed, and part 1 is here to be seen. I would assume a Part 2 (and maybe even a Part 3!) will turn up eventually, but who really knows? Not me. These video clips appear to be in the Windows Media format, so there you go. Figure it out.

Jay Smith on the Viditar
Here is an interview with Jay by the people at the SXSW Interactive Festival, where it just so happens he will be speaking as part of the “Laptop Music” panel. Here’s all the details on that:

Trade Show Day Stage

For those of you who don’t know, SXSW is a week long music/film/interactive festival that takes place in Austin, TX once a year. If you live near Austin, or are going to be in the area that week, you can sign up for a free one-day admission to the Interactive/Film Trade show on March 9, 10 or 11. Obviously, you’d want to go on the 11th.

In other Jay news, he will be appearing on the TV show “The Screen Savers” on TechTV sometime next month. All you computer dorks out there know what I’m talking about. We’ll have more on that soon.

And finally, we have an interview that hasn’t even happened yet. Well, we don’t really have it, but we’re talking about it, so listen up sizzlechest. Our friends at Rokhard.net are putting together a new interview for us and they want to let the fans come up with some of the questions. So if you’ve got questions that no one is asking, send them in. And feel free to ask about anything. Don’t limit it to just band related stuff. Sometimes the more interesting interviews come from people asking unexpected questions. So, if you could just go ahead and send all questions to: webmaster@rokhard.net, that would be great.

We’ve also added a bunch of random articles and interviews that have been adding up over the last few months. You can find everything in the Press section.

If you’re not in the Philly area or you aren’t able to catch the show for some reason, don’t worry. We will be recording it and making it available here on the website.

And in case you forgot, we are playing at the Trocadero this Friday night (Jan 31) in what will be our first ever headlining show at that venue. Don’t fuck this one up. As you may have noticed, there aren’t too many shows being booked as of late, so if you want to see us live, and you live within a reasonable driving distance, this is the time to do it. We’ll be playing a longer set this time, so all you people who complained about the short set on the Stone Sour tour better come out and see this while you can. And to all the people who apparently came to that show to see Slipknot, you might want to sit this one out. They won’t be at this show either.

In other news, the writing process is going pretty well. And no, you can’t hear what we’re working on. It’s a secret.

We have added a show to our extremely empty schedule, and another one or two should be added soon. The show we added is at the Chameleon Club in Lancaster, PA on January 11.

We have added two new files to the VIDEO section. The new “Tabula Rasa” video that was featured on MMUSA can now be viewed in its entirety. And the “Something More REMIX” that we created while on tour is now available for your online viewing pleasure. More info…

T-Shirts are now available for online orders!

Over the past 5-6 months many people have asked why we don’t have our shirts available to order online. At the time, the answer was that we were constantly on the road and just didn’t have the time to keep up with something like that. But now we are back at home for the time being, so we want to make these shirts available to anyone who wants them.

This is a show where people can vote for the videos they like and then at the end of the week the winners get put into regular rotation. We would really appreciate it if everyone could take a few minutes out of their day and go vote for the video. It only lets you vote once, but you may be able to go back and vote the next day if you feel like it.

You can also watch a short clip from the video while you’re there. If you have MuchMusicUSA, it looks like the show is on at 7:30pm and again at 1:30am M-F. You should be able to see the whole video there. If you don’t have MuchMusic you’re out of luck for now. The video has been sent to MTV, but hasn’t gotten any airplay yet. We’re hoping to see it start getting some play on MTV2 sometime soon.

We should have the video available for download very soon.

We want to officially thank Stone Sour and Chevelle and their crews for making these last 2 months some of the best shows we have ever played. We couldn’t have pulled it off without everyone’s help and support.

Also, we would like to thank all of our fans for coming out and showing their support. When you guys were there, it was very obvious, and it made us feel welcome. And thanks to all of our new fans that we made along the way.

There is an article on the Apple website about the Ocular Noise Machine and how it works and how we use it onstage. A lot of people seem to ask this question, so you can finally get the difinitive answer. Click here for the article.

We will soon be updating the FAQ with a lot of new questions. The most popular question right now is, “When are you coming to play a show in UK/Australia/Germany/Wherever?” and the reality is we just don’t know. Everything that we know is on the site, and if we find out some new information, it goes up right away. We hope to eventually play everywhere we can in the US, Europe, Australia, Japan and anywhere else that will have us.

Thanks to everyone who has bought the CD or EP and everyone who’s been coming out to the shows. Also thanks to everyone who has been requesting the song/video for us. We really appreciate all the support.

The lyrics section has now been updated with all the lyrics from the album. I was going to add a song every week leading up to the release date, but I obviously forgot.
