is this the band with the thief drummer? Did they open for the Lawrence Arms on a tour? Were they the pop punk one with the girl, or the xscenex looking ones?

this demo is awesome

They needed to do more touring with cool bands like Lawrence Arms. It seemed like every tour they were on was completely scenester garbage or disgusting over produced pop and their music fit neither category.

I'll unabashedly say that I really dig their music and I think had they been able to write a second record, it could have been great.

why isn't the second song downloadable and can anyone send me their album so i can save some money that i don't have?

ah brian you beat me to this article

the blackout pact was really fucking good. wisam, the drummer, was a cool dude who fucked up. i met him and he seemed very genuine. he realized he fucked up and handled the consequences. they wrote themselves an appropriate legacy, and hello sailor was a solid genuine piece of music. both guitarists left and the band seemed to lose something, so the way everything shaped up isn't completely bad for them. an awesome band awesome dudes, and stayed true. RIP

This is truly the sounds of the wires of the internet merging ap.net with punknews.org.

yeah, this pretty sweet for a demo. too many good bands broke up this year. I'm still pissed about The Letters Organize breaking up too.

I was so pissed when I heard they broke up. I never got the chance to see them.
