Saponification : Resurrection

For those of you that have been there since the beginning, you will remember that this started when I was a student mainly to share music news I found interesting and to update people on when Disarm gigs were.

I then got a job, Disarm disbanded so have only sporadically updated now and then.

Well I'm a student again, which means I may blog more, or this could be an isolated sporadic post -you never know - but there have been a few noteworthy developments in the past month or so I'd like to mention.

Grammatrain, my first all time favourite band is reuniting to record a new album and play a couple of shows! more info on Facebook and myspace

Michael Tait from DC Talk is joining the Newsboys and taking over singing from Pete Furler on tour. Pete Furler will continue to be involved in song writing and production.

A certain up and coming band from Fernie in British Columbia has a couple of songs on youtube.

Parachute have cancelled noise conference this year, citing the lack of excellent contributors as the reason.

Project 86 are in the studio working on a new album, MewithoutYou have a new one out soon, as do As Cities Burn, and Stavesacre have recently finished recording another EP.

Oh and for those wondering how the band saponification is going, After and enforced hiatus as both key contributers were living in different cities, we are now in the same city, but taking a break to concentrate on other projects.
