It is the end of summer, and soon the leaves will change color, our clothes will become thicker, and our beards will once again grow to mighty lengths. And with this change of season, it is time to usher in a change of our own. I am pleased to announce the newest addition to Boston, MA Heisai Yasokawa's EMPTY ORCHESTRA (ex-The Taste of Silver, ex-PS), Mad Mike (ex-Weapons Grade), on the drums. Mike is a versatile musician with knowledge of the cello, violin, and guitar in conjunction with his percussive skills. Mike is a fantastic addition to the band, and brings with him an energy and humor this band accepts with open arms. We will begin playing shows again immediately (Mike has already learned most of the songs) and are working on a new demo that will feature him and new bass player Chris Fittante.
I would also like to take this time to point you to our two horribly recorded new practice recordings with Mike on the drums. Take a listen at http://www.myspace.com/emptyorchestrama

man i thought you guys were going to get mike from a terrible night.

He asked us a couple of days ago before we announced this Mike was in, who has been practicing with us for 2-3 weeks now. I feel bad though, Mike (Maggot) and I have been friends since we were little kids, and I think he's pissed at me.

Well, he kinda asked after the fact... though granted he didn't know there was the fact.
Whatever, Maggot knows he was our first choice after Mike, and that's what counts.

I actually think we should play together more often. I've been listening to our mp3s back to back and we'd be a good match for shows.

I'd go to that show Nick. Hit up Vaast (Charles band) and see about coming to NH when you guys are ready. Kyle has a new band too, they have been playing together. Congrats on the drummer.

Agreed. I'm gonna try booking some shows(again) at the 119 Gallery since I realized the fact that it wasn't the venue that fucked me, but the regular "booker".
I'll definitely put on some Orchestra Smasher shows.
