We are proudly announcing Bart's recent association with German amp manufacturer ENGL. Bart became intrigued after having had a great experience playing Engl gear on tour in Europe. Says Bart: "The Engl Invader's vast tonal range translates perfectly both live and in the studio. I'm looking forward to playing and recording this amp on future projects!" He recently put his new Invader 150 through a studio test session at 40 West studio. Check www.bartfrydrychowicz.com soon for the results!
Also, the Engl website posted a picture of Bart in their artist roster in the Professionals section. |

Tomorrow is the first of our next series of
shows and we're psyched, just wanted to let you know we decided to post some
footage from the May 12 Montreal show, here is "Fate's
Descent"
See you at the shows!

We want to thank all the fans who showed up at the Medley in Montreal on May 12. The 1500 strong crowd filled the venue nearly to capacity and it reminded us why we write music in the first place. Big THANK YOU to the
bands that shared the stage with us: Martyr, Blinded By Faith and Endust. We experimented with having live video of the stage show projected onto two giant screens while we played, as well as some live backstage footage during the times between the sets. Judging by the crowd response, the ideas were received very well. This was an experience we will soon want to repeat…

Hey everyone, we're on week 2 of shows and tonight we're playing in adelsheim, there is a major storm outside the highways are closed due to fallen trees etc. The drive from slovenia that was supposed to take 7 hours but it took over 10... Eastern Europe was crazy, Budapest fans would not stop screaming after the show, Prague was a 300-350 capacity club but there were at least 400 in the club and a bunch outside. Zagreb and Ljubliana were both great venues with some of the best sound on this tour - we were invited to do two interviews and some songs were recorded for local tv... Now we're back in germany for the last week of shows... Thanks to everyone who drove far to see us. Thanks again to Kataklysm for inviting us on the tour. We hope to be back soon - see you next time.
Also, don't forget to check out the recent photos from week 1!
January 10, 2007
Greetings from Munich!!! Things have been pretty hectic last few shows, the turnouts have been better then expected, reaching over 500 crazy fans in Hannover. The show in Holland was sold out. We are excited to get to each and every new venue. Kataklysm are being amazing hosts on our shared bus and they deliver on stage every night without fail. Greetings to everyone who raised a glass with us over the past few shows - you know who you are - we can't wait to come back. In the meantime, some photos from the first week will soon be uploaded for you to check out!
January 3, 2007
We had a crazy night preparing the final details for the road to the point that none of us got any sleep. All went well at the airport and with the flights. We are now in Amsterdam relaxing before the first show in the Netherlands.

Hello to all
Ontario Shows
We would like to thank all the fans who showed up at the Ontario shows. For Hamilton, we arrived 7 hours late due to mechanical problems with our bus, but we made it! We were told 3/4 of the people had already left not believing we could make it - the rumor was made more believable since the Toronto show got cancelled due to the venue being shut down by the federal government. We arrived in Hamilton at 01:30AM, and we did everything we could to load-in the equipment and set up as fast as we could. We ended up starting around 02:15AM and got cut off at 03:00AM. To all the diehards who stayed at the venue and waited for us, we salute you! To the other couple of hundred who couldn't make it, we understand. We are truly sorry for being late, and we’ll be back and put together a special show for you guys.
The London show was the complete opposite of Hamilton. We arrived up at the venue earlier than schedule, and had no problems with the bus. Cheers to everyone from Toronto and Hamilton who drove a few hours to come to see us in London! Cheers to everyone we met, we had a blast and we'll be back.
Toronto Show Cancellation
Finally, the Toronto show was cancelled; we only found out while on the road and had no way of updating the site with this info. Apparently the venue was shut down by the government due to some permit issues. Unfortunately, we heard that no note or announcement was made at the venue and that a few dozen fans waited in the cold with no sign of life inside. We apologize for this. The promoter had told us he had spread the word and made announcements everywhere, however it turned out that tickets were still being sold online and there was no note at the venue.
We will try to find out more and let you know what happened. Again, many thanks to all that came out to see us; we will be back with full force!
