While you were away...

So... it's been a while.
Sometimes, one has nothing to blog about, which can be weird because a lot of stuff has happened since that last angry blog back in 2011. A LOT.

  1. We set up a website. 
  2. We recorded a new song, In Silence, and made a video for it.
  3. We released our sophomore album, Hello Light
  4. We went on a city tour! On a mobile stage! Very cool :-)
  5. We released the second single, and here's the video.
  6. Both songs appeared on a Top 10 countdown.
  7. We're expanding our tour.
This process has been so overwhelming, that words have been a bit inadequate to describe the intensity of the emotional roller coaster that we have been on.  So, does it make sense that it was impossible to blog about?

However, some things are easy to talk about in this endless pursuit of happyness, and three of those things are "happiness",  "Kill Bill" and "numbers".

Happiness. We all want it.

Kill Bill. Was just an amazing movie.  And while the six main characters were absolutely coolishly bad mofos, "Deadly Viper Assassination Squad" is a silly name.  Which is quite the situation we have in "Murfy's fLaW"

Numbers. Two important numbers for Murfy's fLaW are 312 and 1496. Why? Both these years were leap years. And in 312 AD Constantine I marched into Rome, fished Maxentius' body out of the Tiber and decapitated it.  Then in 1496 AD Leonardo da Vinci tested a flying machine.  Unsuccessfully.

Those exciting facts aside, we love 312 and 1496 because this is the number of people who've taken time out to follow and like us on twitter and facebook respectively. We appreciate you all - yes, even those of you who've only followed us so that you can try to sell us earplugs and specific-body-part-growth hormones.

Seriously though, it's you guys who keep voting for our songs, interacting with us, and making us feel that despite the lows, there are some people out there who give a damn, so thanks.

And as a token of our appreciation, here's a picture I drew of the band pretending to be members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad! 

(And in the interest of full disclosure, this blog was all about justifying why I should throw into the public domain a badly drawn sketch of Murfy's fLaW pretending to be members to the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad.)
