HOW MUCH!?!?!

Yikes.
Still, gives me a reason to gloat and post this again.



The only thing of there's that I haven't been able to find that I really want is the Let The Transmitting Begin EP. It was their first, and has a load of cool live tracks on it. But it's rarer than hen's teeth and I've never seen a real copy.

So the band has finally set up an official Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/sikthofficial in order to sell official merch. There's some interesting snippets on there.

So here it is!!! The first Official SikTh Merchandise store.
This page is run by the band - and only the band.

We've been blown away by the continued support we've had from our fans even though we split up a while back now. There's been a constant demand for merchandise so we thought we'd make it happen. We are starting with one of the old designs. We intend to add more designs If all goes well.

And before you all ask, NO we are not reforming - not yet. Some point in the future maybe, but as for 2012, all we have for you is T-Shirts and a thank you for making us all feel proud of what we achieved in SikTh.

They certainly are wetting everyone's appetite with all this new activity. There's some cool videos on the page too from when four of the guys played at ACM, my friend's music college. They used to come in quite often and do instrumental performances and talks, was pretty cool of them.

I've been addicted to Trees recently. How May I Help You? is probably one of the funniest songs I've ever heard. :metalol:
Orion....that's the one with a bunch of power chords and boringly harsh vocals, isn't it?

I god I love SikTh news

Quote
More Merch has been ordered guys.. hoodies and girls skinny tee's. we will then look at getting some of the other designs up. btw, Calls for a reunion are amazing.. thanks... OF COURSE we want to... we've never said other wise. It will happen when the times right. There WILL be another SikTh record... and it will be our best... thats a PROMISE. It took us the best part of 2 years to complete the writing of DOADD so I guess you'll have to be patient. Besides, theres a bucket load of riffs that we wrote for album three still sat there - so we'll have a head start next time ;-)

Yes.

I don't see why they don't reform right away. There's clearly a demand for it, and they're clearly teasing us for some reason. New album, world tour, lather rinse repeat until the end of time.

Please?

Well some of the members are involved in side-projects right now... we have to remember that the band split up for a reason. But with that said, I really hope the new album will come out soon. :tup

I never heard why the vocalists left though. All I heard was they left and the rest of the band got tired of looking for replacements.

Looks like the rest of the band really wants SikTh to continue and for once the vocalists are not all negative about that happening. It's a matter of time like they say!! :caffeine:

So far I think only Pin and Dan Weller have posted. Mikee's not really a big internet user so I doubt he'll write on the page at all.

There's a new Primal Rock Rebellion video. I like it. It's definitely got more in common with SikTh than Iron Maiden, but it's more or less a completely new direction for both of them.

Ugh, I didn't like much about that at all.

Definitely preferred the first song they released.

Listening to the Primal Rock Rebellion album. I'm enjoying it so far. It might just be getting by on the merit of hearing Mikee doing something that isn't SikTh though.

Edit: Upon further listening, I'd say this has potential to be in my top 10 of the year, and it's definitely the best thing that's been released so far this year.

What’s the plan for SikTh beyond that?

“Nothing yet. Nothing at all. We wanted to come back and do a really great gig and see how it goes. We’ve got new bands, we have obligations to our careers, but equally, we do want to make new SikTh music in the future at some point. This is a one-off gig for now, and then we’ll see how it goes…”

Listening to 'The Trees Are Dead & Dried Out; Wait For Something Wild'

....

Wow. :metal   Especially Tupelo. Why the heck did I never listen to this before?

I remember first discovering SikTh, it was like getting hit in the head with a breeze block of riffage. How May I Help You is my favourite on that album.  And Skies of Millenium Night.  And Pussyfoot.  And everything else is my favourite.  I loves all of it really.

Didn't I tell you to listen that like six months ago? Anyway, great that you are finally appreciating the genius that is SikTh. And yes, Tupelo freaking slays.

Yeah, I vaguely remember discussing it at some point. :lol

Although, I did listen to some of Death Of A Dead Day at one point and enjoyed it, but I guess it didn't make too much of an impression on me.

I prefer DoaDD over Trees, I think.  Bland Street Bloom is probably one of the best metal songs ever.
