Fordirelifesake, following last year's departure of guitarist Brian Southall, who left to drum full-time for Boys Night Out, and bassist Ryan Podlubny, who now plays guitar for the Fullblast, have brought on guitarist Terry Peake and bassist Dave Wisbiski as replacements, respectively. The re-tooled lineup is currently working on new songs and plan on playing several May shows in their local Detroit area, with a tentative full tour to follow later this year.

In related band news, Forge Again will be releasing a compilation of Fordirelifesake's older material, including splits and compilation tracks amongst other releases. A tentative release is set for some time this Summer.

The band released the Dance.Pretend.Forget. Defend. EP last year through Thorp.
