Well, . . . Psyopus had to drop off the tour we were doing with Ion Dissonance, Swarm of the Lotus and Strong Intention in August. Our drummer in simple form is missing in action. We apologize a million times over to all who are let down by this news. We are equally as let down as anyone. We were anticipating this tour greatly.

We will still be doing Hell Fest this year but, it will be with the original line of Greg Herman on drums.

Blah!

So, . . . we are fucking broke and GREATLY NEED YOUR HELP! We need to generate $2000 dollars SOMEHOW this month to pay our Psyopus expenses (van payment, rehearsal room, $1200 30 net on t-shirt bill, etc . . . ) We have been living on the road to pay these bills and now, . . . we just got sledge hammered in the ass.

What we ask is if you are interested in buying merchandise from us via the mail, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DO! We would appreciate it more than you could imagine.

We had an order of 250 shirts sent to us in Columbus, OH with 2 new designs. Of coarse, we haven't been able to pick it up. The lovely guys in the Swarm of the Lotus camp have the packages for us and I am sure they would be willing to sell you anything at the shows we had to dip out on.

Otherwise, here is what we have in stock at home that you can order directly from us. Again, we really need this money and thank you greatly for the help.
