ballinacup asked: what are you guys listening to right now?
stevelayman asked: I think you'd have an interesting view on this. Back a few weeks ago, we had a peaceful protest at my college in solidarity with OWS. A few young men voiced their opinion in favor of re instituting the barter system. Do you feel that the OWS protests would be more powerful if the people voicing their opinions on the matter were (for a lack of a better phrase) more educated on the problems at...
lackofvigilance asked: How do you feel about the world today?
maconsun asked: Stumbled upon the Lion's Den a handful of times way back when. You guy wreak of Albany and that's what makes you filthy good. What's next on the agenda?
stevelayman asked: So when are you putting your new acoustic song out on an official release? ;]
We haven't gotten asked anything in months.
I attribute this to only touring twice a year (if that) and not being that good. If you’re interested in learning more about us hit up the following link:

And the words spill forth unabated
I’ve been having a difficult time looking inward in writing lyrics lately. It takes me months to write anything I think is worth showing anyone (which is part of the reason we release one EP every year), but it seems that when words finally start to flow there’s nothing I can do to stop them. Recently, these words have been observational. One of my closest friends and my current...

Torn Asunder: Upstate New York two weeks after...
My mother’s friend lost her entire world in the flooding that came on the heels of Tropical Storm Irene. The home she shared with her husband outside of Prattsville, New York was lifted off of its foundation and pushed roughly a quarter mile away from where it was built. The house was located, but as her friends, family, and volunteers began to dig out her front door she found her former life...

stayontheoutside asked: I will always help bands that I love. You guys are hard workers and it's obvious. Punk music has given me so much, and all I can try and do is give back. If that happens let me know. My floor is open for you guys.
playingitout asked: You guys should come back to albany soon when I'll actually be there. Because that would be sweeeeet.

Tomorrow. God Willing. Nevermind.
I’m afraid there’s nothing left to say, I’m original in all the same ways. Toss and turn through fitful wake, Wretched sleep in the bed I’ve made. I was drunk, but I sobered up; Superstitious once, but I believe in love. I want a hand to fit the glove. I was drunk when I drove the point home. Seems I need to be to pick up the phone. Wrecked a heart of ice and snow, Buried...

Lyrics to Songs You Might Have Heard/May Hear soon

If you’ve been curious, wanted to sing along, or were looking for some progress on our end, please check out the following, but please, don’t borrow or steal. Dutch Guts Nodding off on Hudson in the corner of the room. Suddenly, the world comes into...

1. Greenville, South Carolina
Greenville contains the sad realities endemic in almost every college town in the country: poverty that has encouraged a population of spare-changers and vagrants; urban sectionalism that has led to radically different sections of town divided by wealth, race, and age; the shadowy, mostly unspoken, ghosts of deep-seeded, All-American racism. It reminded me of...

Tour Dates 2010-2011
Myspace finally shit the bed. I’ve held on for years, for as long as humanly possible, but when the take away your ability to revise blogs, take away the ease and convenience of updating and promoting shows, and make it so much more difficult to read the site, it makes more sense to use other means of correspondence. This is a list of shows we played on our Winter East Coast Tour from New...

New Drummer, New Label, New York
Long time no talk! Sorry for the lack of communication but we’ve all been really busy with Antebellum Southern Slave History, English Composition, Screen-printing, Dish-washing, and helping conduct the Census. Now that we have some time to kill, I’d like to announce two big additions to Camp Caleb Lionheart. We have a new drummer named Steve! After months of trying out different...
