NEWS!!!!

Well, another successful summer of shows are done. The last 2 weeks were pretty fun and eventful. Everything from crowds from 4-400, getting lynched by uninformed feministas, 1 exploded alternator, 4 blown club breakers, 627 hard iced teas, couple a weird beers, 3 goddamn delicious burgers, and 1 diligent driver. Thanks to everyone who lets us crash on their floor/couch/bed!!

We also want to apologize to everyone that wanted to see us at burgerfest for the technical difficulties during our set(?). What can I say, when you play with a drumb machine, and rely on monitors so much...things are bound to get fucked eventually. We always travel with our own monitors, but with the short changeover times, we didn't have time to set them up. Lesson learned. But DON'T WORRY, we're gonna be back in Vancouver on Oct.11 for our label bro's ANION record release at the Astoria to make it up!! Here's the FB event...

In membership news, Jim has left the band to focus on his sick sludge band The Weir. Go check them out! Much love and good luck to that dude! Aaron and I are going to carry on as a 2pc for now. *que circus music*.

Our first order of business as a 2pc is to record a song for a 25th anniversary Forbidden Dimension tribute album that the dudes from 6ftplus are putting out, i'm told the release date is Oct or so.

Stay rad!

We're also still in talks with our boyfriends The Great Sabatini about doing a split release. No real deets yet, but something will probably be happening before the year is out.

Split....and shit!

The BK/Kataplexis split is going to be a 10", and it's coming together fast! We should be finishing up all the recording within the next few weeks. The cover art is also in the works, and being done by the eerie Cate Francis!! I've seen a rough copy of it, and it looks dope! We're also horny to announce that No List Records will be putting this muh-fuggah out!! So stoked on that! We're not sure of the exact release date yet, but we'll have it for tour fersure.

NEWS!!!

This is the new Breathe Knives site. All news and whatnot will be posted here from now on.

The reason for this site is 2 fold: 1. Since the fall of myspace(they can die), we needed a place to have our music, bio, shit like that(P.s. - If you look to the right ---->, you'll see all things media). I said 2 fold, right? 2. It's nice just having something that someone else doesn't completely control....so basically, it goes back to hating myspace and hoping their server gets an incurable virus.

Other News!!!

We will be heading out on tour this summer. We're gonna be doing Western Canaduh in the summer, and another Eastern tour in Sept with our bros Kataplexis http://www.myspace.com/kataplexis! Which leads to the other exciting news!! We will be doing a split of some sort with said Kataplexis dudes slotted for a May release. We will be covering one of each others songs, along with some new shit and possibly some other covers. We're not exactly sure what the media will be, but I assure you, it will be dope!


Also, the tracks to the right are all FREE downloads! Go nuts! Go to our Bandcamp page to d/l a couple others.

Stay sick!
