FEBRUARY
2004 UPDATES:
- (Feb.
27, 2004) We
worked hard wednesday, without Nick, and ended up with a new song, but still
currently working on that to finish it up. Today, Bloomington High School
newspaper group "The Aegis" released an article by our friend, Matt
Christensen, about Death Before Sunrise. Check out the 'media' page under
the section entitled: 'press' for the article. Until next update, and probably
next month, see ya! (by the way, I'm in the works of creating a flash page,
wanna see what I have so far? Click
Here)
- (Feb.
18, 2004) Little
updates, lots of production and hard work! DBS's demo is complete and is about
to go through CD duplication when we can afford it. We're proud of this, but
still agree that a band is way better live. hah. We have not decided yet,
but we may sell the demo at 4 bucks a CD...we'll keep you updated though.
I (TJ) will talk to the band and ask them which MP3 files we should post on
the site, to give you all some teasers and whatnot...until then, you get the
same crappy recordings from a live show, unless you talk to me (TJ) personally,
maybe I could spare you something. Hah. Come back.

We did it guys, we got 3 songs completely recorded up. 2 of which may not
sound the best, but are of good quality anyhow. We experimented with our song
"Another Way" before recording, and we finally recorded it and it
sounds damn sweet. We are now in the process of adding these 3 songs to a
CD and sending it off to MAXLIDER. Wish us luck.
(we plan on re-recording
"Lies" and "Fear", perhaps, that way we can work on
quality, as well as finishing up recording with our songs: "Tim Tackett",
"Session" and maybe a few others, also 2 or 3 songs may be placed
on the site for you internet junkies searchin' for our tunes, stay connected
and come back often for more s h i t).

(Feb.
09, 2004) We have 2 songs completed for our demo CD
(Lies and Fear). They sound alright for what we recorded with. Nick shaved
his head. Our show at Joe's didn't happen, and we just about have enough
of a CD to send to Maxlider and we will find out, shortly, if we're on the
gig! We'll let you know as soon as it happens. Thank you all.
JANUARY
2004 UPDATES:
- (Jan.
30, 2004) ATTENTION!
For those of you hoping to give our band a listen, live, you may be in good
luck of doing so! We will (hopefully still be having) a show at our friend,
Joe's, house for a 'promotion' party. That will be February 7th, at 7:00p.m.
if it is still happening, you will be notified if it is not. ALSO, VERY IMPORTANT.
Our band is in the process of making a DEMO CD to deliver to you all, plus
a local band known as 'MAXLIDER'. If we are approved by Maxlider, we may be
able to play a show with them at ISU's BBC. Also appearing at the show is:
None Taken and Nothing Fits. So, the band is working ever so hard to get this
CD complete and delivered, hopefully we'll be seeing you at the BBC for a
show! Thanks! (spread the word)
- (Jan.
19, 2004) Yeah,
we're all alright. Anyways, I've updated the site with a new show, check out
the 'shows' section of the site for more information, or contact TJ. Also
we should start recording a demo cd soon, like ... at this upcoming wednesday
band practice! Look forward to that, you DBS junkies.

We did a damn awesome job playing our first full show friday, although our
show at West was cancelled, we still played at Jeff's house. Today the whole
band, excluding Mark, was involved in a car accident heading to our gig for
the night, at Jim's Girlfriend's house for her birthday party. We wish her
a happy birthday, and apologize for most of the band not being able to make
it because of this accident. Thank you. We may be heading into a studio to
record Monday, hopefully.
- (Jan.
13, 2004) Added
another 'news' page to the site. This will give you as much information as
I can provide on other bands that we pay attention to. Oh, and Mark updated
his bio =O!!!!!!

Audio has been added to a temporary server for download purposes. Access it
at the Media>Audio page. Also, we may have a show at the BBC coming up,
if things work out the way they should. Keep coming back and checking in for
more updates like that. The show next friday at Normal Community West High
School may only be for students and faculty that attend that building, please
contact Jim Tackett for more information regarding that. We have been working
real hard lately and been practicing more than usual, we now have plenty songs
to feed you with. Only 2 of which are available online at the moment. A 'street
team' may be in the process of being created soon, contact me (TJ) if you're
interested or have any comments or suggestions regarding this. Check back.

Happy new year, everyone. We had a pretty fucking sweet party for new year's
eve, thanks to Jeff and his family. We also had a practice on that Wednesday,
and it went alright. Yes, once again there's a new layout to the site, more
of a theme involved now too. So, yeah. Enjoy ... not much else is going on,
just practices ... gettin' ready for another show and being damn productive.
DECEMBER 2003 UPDATES:
- (Dec.
30, 2003)
We hope everyone has had a good holiday season, as the
new year is about to roll around. There hasn't been much for updates, due
to the lack of, needing to update, really. I'm no longer posting a bunch of
DBS band practice pictures, because of a lack of space we have for such things.
If you're interested in pictures, contact me...I have some that will not be
posted. Our audio on iuma.com has still yet to be approved for whatever various
reasons, sorry for the delays. Tomorrow is new years eve, the band will be
practicing a lot tomorrow...should be an open session as far as I know. We're
starting at around probably 12:30 to 1, gettin' things going. We'll be messing
around all day because, well...no school...no work...you get it. Anyways,
I'm posting one new thing to the website, a new buddy icon. It gives people
seizures, from what I hear. Enjoy.
- (Dec.
18, 2003)
Yes, a new layout, again. It's cool. Anyways, there's
some plans for the site in the near future. We're going to have two different
versions of the site, one in flash, one in html like this one. So, look forward
to that, if you'd like. Also, we had practice yesterday, and it went pretty
well. There's more news on that in the 'news' section at the top of this page.
ALSO! A change has been made to our 'shows' area, we've played our first show,
but our second scheduled show as been postponed to January 16, 2004 at Normal
Community West High School. For more information on that, contact Jim.

15, 2003)
Alright, sorry for the lack of updates, my home computer
hasn't been working properly. Anyways, we fucking ruled some ass this last
friday the 12th. We got things recorded on video of our performance, and we
also got offered to be added into the school's spring talent show. So, we
have 3 videos now, 2 of the same song, 1 of another and also I made .mp3 files
out of these videos for those who just want audio clips of our performance.
They will be added to the 'media>audio' section of the website when our
submission to iuma.com is completed. There is practice this wednesday, as
usual. This upcoming friday we have a show at Normal West Community High School,
or at least we should have one. For more details, get ahold of either Jeff
or Jim. But anyways, come support us as much as you can! And I thank everyone
who showed to the BHS Auditorium to see our performance last friday! IT WAS
SWEET!

No band practice this upcoming Wednesday, Jeff has an
orientation. And now there's an easier way to reach the site, instead of typing
all the geocities.com whatever.. Just type in the address bar: www.deathbeforesunrise.tk.
- (Dec.
3, 2003) Band
practice went REALLY well today, everyone showed, and a few extra people popped
up to watch us practice as well. We have a new way of playing "Lies (Breaking
You Down)" and we also have our cover of Clint Eastwood by The Gorillaz,
and 2 other songs going as well. We're really being productive lately, and
it's REALLY paying off. I added the link to the pictures on the media site,
but the link doesn't work yet because right now, I'm too lazy to upload 98
full images, 98 thumbnails, and 98 pages all at once ... that's too much for
me at the time. You all will have to wait a little bit. DEAL WITH IT..
AND TO THOSE WHO ARE GETTING PISSED OFF ABOUT THE MESSAGE
BOARD CENSORS, DEAL WITH IT ALSO! IT'S A FREE SERVICE, WE'RE LUCKY
TO HAVE SUCH A THING WHERE WE CAN COMMUNICATE INSTANTLY! hahaha, anyways,
don't get too worked up about it, there's other words in the dictionary that
can describe how you feel, without having to use such vulgar language like
this: Shit, fuck, damn, cunt ...etc... Hehe, had to do that. But like I said,
deal with it ... free services do that to ya.
- (Dec.
2, 2003)
Alright, so the site has a new design and layout, kinda. Go figure, right?
TJ gets bored for a night so he does something constructive on the site. But
hey, at least I'm taking the time to do that, right? Anyhow, band practice
is tomorrow ... also, the 'news' page has been updated with a few things.
