Having released their first four track demo which was aired by Radio 1's Zane Lowe and Mary Anne Hobbs, who they played a live Radio 1 Rock show session for, the band went on to win Zane Lowe’s 'fresh meat' competition for best single! Zane Lowe also mentioned the band on his ‘Gonza’ Mtv2 show saying “We have played them a few times on Radio 1 now and their going to be huge”! On air assertions from Jo Whiley that they were one of a handful of bands set to go ballistic, the band prove just why they deserved all that early support from the country's top rock DJs! Airplay has also come from Xfm and regional BBC stations as well as KROQ in Los Angeles!
Support also came from Welsh phenomenon Funeral for a Friend: saying "They're a band who can be brutally heavy in parts yet beautifully melodic at the same time. They've just given us a copy of their new demo and it's really f**king good, criminally good in fact!" - Metal Hammer magazine. (Go to our photos for more press)
Their debut album 'Words of Betrayal' was released in October 05 where they recieved superb reviews from all major magazine & on-line websites.

Their single was then added to the Scuzz & Kerrang tv playlists. 'Love crossed Pistols' was also voted top 3 tracks by you in issue 78 of Rocksound! After the huge success of their debut album they played to a packed out Tuborg stage at Download festival 07 and also played the main stage at the Bloodstock Open Air festival the same year! The band continue to tour the country and are currently working on new material for their next release.

I just went to your acoustic gig a while back n thought you would be a good person to ask! I don't actually know anybody who's into country music and I've only really listened to stuff like Keith Urban...any songs in particular out of those lot? or are they all just good ones to go with? I do have 'The Galway Girl', which is good times.
