i posted a demo that’s not actually new to me but you’ve never heard it so technically its still “new” as far as you’re concerned. anyway, i wanted to share one more demo with you guys and gals before heading into the studio very soon. as soon as its solidified i’ll be posting info on the recording which will be very very soon.
on a side note… heat is a horrible horrible thing.

take care…

Cloak/Dagger “Pinata Breaks, Demo Takes” Digital Release Out Now

By Leave a Comment

After signing to Jade Tree last summer, CLOAK/DAGGER began preparing songs for their Jade Tree debut EP. Months later and a few technical difficulties overcome, the band has now turned the release into a full length album which they are currently in the studio recording. Details of that album will be posted soon, but in the meantime Piñata Breaks, Demo Takes is a digital only release that features the band’s most recent Piñata 7″, originally released and still available on Grave Mistake Records. The nine songs will trigger memories of favorites such as Black Flag, Circle Jerks and even Hot Snakes, but they offer an entirely new experience with raw energy that can only be rivaled by the band’s live show.
