Maxeen has posted an update on their MySpace page. The band has also posted a couple of new songs which you can check out here.

as you can see we’ve made a few changes here and there…..
We posted two new songs called Suffer & take it and Shout Radio. We recorded these at The Document Room in Malibu so thankyou to JT, Sara and the great Jared for making that happen for us. Check out the studio views here: http://www.documentroom.com
Take a look at the short videopod things we shot when we were recording…you can find them in the Watch & Listen section….

There is also a lil ditty called Beautiful Disease on the player never before heard by a naked ear canal so take a listen……

And……. new photos! Thanks to Dove Shore and Jay Matsueda for taking great shots and making us look good. Check the photo section and take a look around.
And this new site was made possible by the great Kelly at burnthisforever.com Check out his site…..

We are working diligently on bringing you some new t-shirts so we hope to have a little storefront up and running in the very near future so stay tuned on that one.

The new songs will be available for FREE downloading in the next few days so check back if you can pull yourself away from your daily rituals.

Heading to the Echo for a show so if you’re around come on down!

Till next time..
