A note from the band members: A lot has happened recently! First off, we're finally rid of all the immigration issues that have dogged us in the past year and we are all able to travel and work freely in the U.S. now. Finally! With this new-found liberty, and in light of the upcoming promotional push we'll be getting in the U.S. in the new year, we've changed our name from Softcore to Guards of Metropolis. Here's why: The changing nature of search engines such as Google, and more sophisticated email spam filters have made it increasingly difficult to communicate with our fans and friends on the internet. Messages containing the word "Softcore" would never get to them. People kept telling us that they never got our newsletters since they were being filtered directly into their trash file. Perhaps that's where we ultimately belong, but we'd like YOU to have the chance to decide, not your service provider or Hotmail interface!
Cool? So that's that then. Same band, different name. We're now called Guards of Metropolis, and we have a CD coming out in early 2007. We're currently working on several videos to accompany the CD. We'll also be doing a U.S. tour at the same time, so if you join our email list we'll let you know when we're coming to your town.
We'll keep sending news bulletins for awhile to everyone who joined the Softcore email list, but we recommend that you also sign up for our new email list which will be posted shortly.
Thanks for your continued support!
Kristin, Silver, Jason, and Charles
