9/14/06 - Back When Writing New Album

"We are currently knee-deep in the writing process for our next record and it is going splendidly.  The songs are shaping up to have a much more structured and streamlined feel, with the noodling fat cut off.  The overall feel we get from these songs is something bright, shining, yet completely dirty in its undertones.  Hope you all like it as much as we do.  Songs being considered now are "Choir of Gods", "Golden", "The Looming", "The Sloth" and "Polishing Brass" with "Hypocenter" pretty much abandoned.  We only played that song once in Omaha so if you were there you witnessed its first and only public listening."

UPCOMING SHOWS
09/17 Omaha, NE - Back When w/ Minsk (Relapse Records)

AVAILABLE NOW
Back When - We Sang As Ghosts CD
Seven epic songs jumping all genres to create glorious electronic soundscapes. Mammoth riffs, pounding drums, and quiet country interludes. Recorded by Matt Talbott of Hum (singer/guitarist) and mastered by Alan Douches at West West Side. This dynamic record promises to satisfy any fan of innovative, heavy music. We Sang as Ghosts is 55 minutes and is sure to please fans of Isis, Neurosis, and Radiohead.

Back When - Celebration of Alceste CDep
Comprised of former and current members of STATISTICS, EXAMINATION OF THE... and PLOSION. Mid-west technical wizardry at it's finest, and this is the band's debut! Six relentless tracks of chaotic heaviness blasting and screeching it's way around spiraling guitars that lead into absolutely punishing breakdowns. Weird little jazzy interludes keep this extra-interesting, but overall this is just pure genre-blending brutality. An excellent debut and highly recommended for fans of anything complicated, technical and weirdly pummeling.
