Greetings Earthlings, and for the first time ever: those of you who use Internet Explorer.

As you all know, 2010 has been an intense blend of awesome, challenging, new, intimidating and rewarding experiences for us. Please let us reminisce, and bring you up to speed regarding our evil schemes, present and future.

After embarking on (and somehow surviving) our first tour across the east coast of Canada, we hit the stage again in Toronto supporting THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, GOATWHORE and ARKAIK on BDM’s DEFLORATE NORTH AMERICA tour.

We would like to thank our friends, old and new, for coming out and supporting us. You guys always show us interesting ways to have a good time.

On that note, we’re very sorry to say that those of you who attended that show also saw the last Hallows Die performance of 2010. We have decided to retreat to our respective slave pits and use the rest of this year to write and potentially start recording our next album. With new members, new ideas, and a lyrical theme loosely based on the misconceptions and diluted realities that we, as a species, face, we’ve entitled the project MASKS.

We wouldn’t simply disappear without leaving you fine folks with something to stew over for the next few months, so we present to you the first recorded version of Do Androids Dream of Robot Sheep. Check it out on our facebook or on the media section above.

Don’t forget to check back here, as this is just a small portion of everything we have planned over the next little while. We will continue to post updates as things come together so keep your ears peeled.

Until next time, rock hard and stay groovy,

Ryan, Pat, Dylan, Gabe
