Following some enquiries from listeners in the US, we’re pleased to announce that our debut album, Evacuate, is now available to buy in both CD and digital download formats from US distributor CD Baby. To celebrate, the album will be available at the discounted price of US$9.99 (CD) and US$5.00 (digital) for a limited period only.

Life in the old dog yet

When the past few weeks have brought apocalyptic flooding and music festival wash-outs, you know you must be in the middle of a British summertime! Talking of the festivals, this is the first year for a while that I’ve not gone along to Reading, but looking at the line-up, I had a definite sense of deja-vu – Rage Against the Machine, Metallica, The Killers? Maybe it’s a bit of jealousy at not going, but despite there being some great bands on the bill, I’m pretty sure they’ve all headlined there before.

Some sad news...

We have some unhappy news to report this month, as Tim Hall will no longer be playing bass with ACAS. Since joining us last year, Tim has contributed some amazing bass lines to the songs we're lining up for Album 2 (luckily for us, you'll still get to hear his performances on the new release, though). Tim is a very gifted player and musician in general, and we wish him great success and all the best with the other band he plays in – Brighton's HerelDeduke. Check 'em out.
