doing something right.

Hey everyone,
well, since the last post, the record has been unleashed and slowly making its way across the world. We have had orders coming from all over the earth, including Japan, France, Canada, Columbia, Colombia, Israel, the UK, etc etc, so that has been incredibly cool to see! We thank all of you fans abroad to for paying the extra few bucks in shipping! We tried to keep the cd to the lowest price possible for everyone. 
 Anyway, one of those righteous fans happened to send us an email the other day, and we just thought that was pretty cool, so I thought we'd post that email (we omitted his name, just in case he doesn't want to be on our shitty website! hahaha)

Hello Orwell

I've successfully received your album the other day and I must say I'm thoroughly impressed by the whole thing (package and the music).
It's a very unique CD and I'm keeping the words of appreciation with the lyrical book. I must admit it touched me deeply to see an artist to be so appreciative. It makes me wish I had paid so much more for your CD (I'm a student who just moved, fucking ouch) because it would be totally worth it.
I'll definitely be buying a t-shirt if you guys ever release one and I hope to see you guys live at the other side of the pond, as you guys put so eloquently.
My copy of AVOHFASIH is the most prized possession of my 2000+ albums counting musical collection. You guys can be proud!
Keep up the good work guys! I'll see about writing a review for the album and posting it on Sputnik Music when I feel I can do it justice.

Kindest regards of a new fan,

So that was cool to read and kind of demonstrates the overall reaction we have received to the packaging and the physical album. Hopefully other bands take note and realize that if you truley put your heart into something, people will support it.


Also, I have to note that we were on the cover of La Crosse's alt-news-art-music-scene (like the city pages in other big cities, only cooler ;) paper  yesterday, and that is also incredibly cool to us. We all read and love the second supper, it is a staple of La Crosse Wisconsin, which is a town we all have a deep love and appreciation for, so to be honored on the cover and in the pages of the second supper is pretty fulfilling for us! I haven't had a chance to read to the article yet (as I live 3 hours from LaX) but they always do a great job, so go grab one of these free pieces of awesome.




Lastly, I must apologize for giving a weeks worth of updates in one post. After the album finally dropped and our release shows go under our belts, it was time to take a few days to breath and refocus. That's over though, and it's go time now! haha

That's it for now! More to come soon.
As we have asked, and continue to ask, please show everyone you know AVOHFASIH, we are extremely proud of this record and confident that anyone who has at least a tolerance for metal and heavy music can find something within the record. Thank all of you guys so much!!!!
