The band also has some shows on the horizon:

We’re rapidly shifting gears here at DIW headquarters. We’re shirking the old and embracing the new. Sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly, change is always good even if that change causes a bit of disruption to the comfort zone. Comfort causes complacency and that in itself is a slow death and we’re not down with that just yet. What’s the definition of insanity? It’s doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. So, time for change—stay tuned. Yay!

As with anything, situations change—it’s a people, places and things sorta deal. Quite frankly I’ve been in a period of re-evaluation, coming clean about my demons, my resentments, my loves, my hates and where my life is pointed. At this juncture, I’m half way through that life if the law of averages are correct and the simple fact is, I’ve been doing this for more than two thirds of that life. Where does the time go? So the last couple months have admittedly been a fucking mess. I’ve lost more than I’ve gained, lost a dear love of my life and somehow stranded myself on an island of the perpetual re-think. All things must pass. My direction will find itself and hopefully as our shows continue the direction will reveal itself further. Thanks for those who’ve been hanging with me and for those who haven’t, I understand why.
