New Single + MCS Returns To Japan!
Sorry for the lateness of this post, but over the weekend MCS announced that the second single from Go, "Timelines" will be released digitally on May 22.

They have also announced they will be playing the Nano-Mugen Festival 2012 presented by the Asian Kung Fu Generation in Japan on July 15-16. The show on July 16th will be acoustic.

I have a laundry list of updates to make to the site but am really busy lately so please bear with me if you see anything that is missing or not updated... Thanks!
