Show on December 2nd!!!!

Hello all!
sorry its been a while, I've had a lot of stuff going on, school and what have you...
BUT WE ARE BACK!!! And we are playing an awesome show at the Cornerstone Christian School, Manchester CT! So, if you are local, go check it out.
The show is a benefit concert for the Cornerstone class of 2010, so while it is free, donations will be gladly accepted.

This show is going to be particularly cool, because we are going to be playing acoustic versions of our songs, and they have a completely different vibe than in the full band setting.
yes, that is right, I(the bass player) sadly will not be playing at this show due to a Uconn show that I kind of am getting graded for....but you should all go, unless you want to watch me. its a tough decision right?

Just make sure you go to one of these events, its music, so support one of the venues. Public performances such as these should not be taken for granted, it really is a freedom that we should be thankful for more often.
ok I'm done with the rant.

ALSO!!! MAKE SURE YOU GO TO OUR SHOW AT THE WEBSTER: JANUARY 7th!!!!
*more details to come later*

Thanks for your support over the past year!!

CONCERT ON NOVEMBER 5!!!!

Just a friendly reminder that we will be playing a concert at the Webster Underground, Friday November 5th. The doors open at 6:15, and we are probably going to be pretty early in the line up. It would be AWESOME if we could see a bunch of our friends there, and that New Englanders can indeed rock out.

One might then ask themselves..."Oh yes, I would most assuredly like to join Visitor Rebuilt in their festive rock show, but how can I take part in such a shindig?"

Well, let me tell you. You can STILL buy tickets online. 10 bucks for 10 bands. pretty sweet deal.

tickets!!!

or you can buy tickets at the door, those will be 12 bucks.

In either case....GO and we will shower you with love and much rock and roll

New Songs

Hello hello again,

So Sunday night the three of us, (James is not back from COTW) put in some serious work on a couple new songs and they are shaping up to be EPIC. I think I speak for the rest of the band in that we are really excited about the progress that has been taking place and we all thank you for the prayers and support. There maybe a follow up post including a sneak peek at one of the songs...

SHOW!

Hey all
Wow, this is like two posts in one DAY, awesome.
Anyhow, the show that was supposed to be in September, got moved. Its a long story that if asked of me will be accompanied by many much gnashing of the teeth and pulling of the hair. FEAR NOT, the Show is still a go and has been set for Friday October 8th at 8:00pm. It is at the same place, von der Mehden on the Uconn campus. Check out our Facebook page for more details or even *gasp* our myspace page.

Visitor Rebuilt

at anyone of those sites you can listen to our demo tracks, as well as some rough scratch tracks.
peace yo

Ever Rising Demo

Hey all you awesome people!
We have been working on recording a three song demo for the past three weeks, and not to brag or anything, but it sounds quite good. There is a bit of mixing left, but we anticipate it to be done within the next few weeks. The songs featured will be "Comfortable", "With these Arms", and "Ever Rising". The lyrics to these songs are somewhere on this site, if you are one of those people who like to sing.(Such a strange thing to do right?) 


ALSO!!!!! blogger decided to be awesome and finally add the movie player to my toolbar
so I can finally load our concert video, to give you all an idea of what Ever Rising sounds like

September Show

ok, so later today...6:30pm to be exact, I travel to the wonderful world of Uconn to meet with the stage manager. Just four weeks! Rehearsals have been going well, despite the overall lack of a drummer who will remain nameless(coughjamescough). Once I meet with the manager, I will put up the exact date of the show and times and ticket information.

Also------we were found by a group called AFTON. So through this search group we will be playing shows at the webster and other places around the state. we are pumped and ready to see what God has in store for our band!

Open Rehersal

HEYYYYYY PEOPLE!!!
We are hosting an open rehearsal at PCM at 4:00pm!!!
This is something new we are trying in order to just keep things informal and for people to just hang out and listen to some music. So, if you can't make it to the 25th show, see if you can come out to get a taste of what we will be playing. Hope to see some of you there

Comfortable

Foolin around, I havent found
anything, that I long for
the harder that I hit the ground, it all becomes reality

the weight of this sound, fillin my head with the hurt around me

gotta leave this town, throw away all that has become comfortable
all I see, all I know, all that I hate
is what has become comfortable

Im so tired of waving this tattered flag
Ive given up what I stand for, so many times
but not anymore, theres a new fire within
you can throw your stones at me, but I'll never retreat

throw away, the shame of the day
pull away, from the blame of dismay
you dont need, the rot it breeds
starve the monster, just let it bleed
break free of the grip as it rips its way out
tears your skin new, true
keep pushing higher, the strength will grow
we fight the fire, with a burning soul
break free, just let it bleed
break free, you start on your knees 

You've Taken Me In

The unity is lost from this community
we've found no answers throughout our history
and everyday we find out something new, something old
something lost, and something found
but all of these somethings, they all point to one thing
a picture, a story, of truth

youve taken me in, youve taken me in
no conditions and no end
despite all my failed attmepts
to win with useless arguements
youve taken me in

Another passing of another fad, another chain
How many can we go through before we all become insane
And as the cycle completes, I step back out and step back down
its not my place, its not my crown to win
But slowly Im learning, that all of my yearning
will pull me through and keep me to the end, the end, the end, its not the end cause


I feel the warmth Ive always longed for, flowing through my viens
I see the arms of strength surround me, throwing down these chains
I find the love my heart demands, pulling me in close
with all the power to command, friendship of my foes

Ever Rising

theres something in the air
theres something in the room
I cant put my finger on
I cant take my eyes off
frozen in still frame
and yet it draws nearer
I try hard to focus
but still no clearer
I cant understand, what will we find
as we open our eyes

we're rising
eyes shining
bright as the sun
we're rising
hearts pounding
hands held as one
pain is feared no more
we're breaking through this storm
we're ever rising

a burst in the midnight
filling my lungs with life
the emptiness suddenly thrown away
this strange new feeling has come to stay
stars vanish
night lingers on
I cling to this last burning candle
till the rise of dawn

I cant understand, what will we find
as we open our eyes
chorus

stars vanish
night lingers on
I cling to this last burning candle
till the rise of dawn

take the hand that holds
youve so much more to know
we're ever rising

MAY 25

So our first gig of the summer season has been confirmed.

MAY 25(as the title of the post suggests)

6:30pm
 at
The Cornerstone Christian School

this is a benifit concert so the cost should not be more than $5.00

SUMMER SHOWS

Well....summer is right around the corner. So I hope you are all as pumped about enjoying time with friends and making music as we are. So far we are looking at tentatively playing May 25 in Manchester(exact location to be announced later). We are also looking at playing in Coventry, near Patriots Park, and perhaps some house parties.
Our big show is not till Sep 3rd where we will be headlining an event sponsored by RUF at Uconn.

SO EVERYONE: get excited and prepare for some awesome music.

Album progress

So, its been a while, but not to fear! The album is going forward, just a bit slower than anticipated. There had been some trouble with the sound quality of the drum set, so we decided to re-record the drum tracks. Once the drums are set, things should progress more regularly...maybe. but hey, its all good. We hope to be playing some more shows in the spring, and we have been busy working on some new material. so stay tuned for a show near you. yay!

Photos From the First Show!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, its been a while, and I'm sure everyone has been just dying to hear how the show went.
IT WAS AMAZING. Everyone played their best, and the crowd gave lots of positive feed back which was a huge encouragement. Thanks again to all who came out and supported the cause, and a special thanks to Robbie and Jimmy, who organized, invited us to play, and ran the sound. It was a great experience and we look forward to doing more shows with their band, Paint The Shore.

But anyhows, thanks to our good friend, we have a few photos of the band in action.
And while you are at it, follow this link video to see
1.) a video of most of the title track for our ep,
