In case you haven't heard, the alternative/indie rock band SNACK has returned to Northern New Jersey, back from their tour of the outer North Atlantic coastal island villages and their now infamous and brief stint on the Danish "Real World". Hailed by the Christian Science Monitor as "the shizzzit," this raucous power trio is looking forward to again displaying its musical "verite" for the listening public. Get ready for those molten riffs, be-bopping skins, "dont' tell mama I stole the chicken" bass lines and glorious pained screams of agony! Snack is back and the restraining order has been lifted!"
SNACK's next show is at the CBGB's Downstair's Lounge on Saturday, July 23rd so come on out to East Village and check us out if you're looking for a good time. Click on "Shows" for details. If you can't make the show, be sure to watch our show online via CBGB's cybercast. Just logon on to www.cbgb.com right before the show and click on their cybercast webcam. It's pretty awesome.

Just some quick info. on what we've been doing and what lies ahead. We had two great shows in January at The Continental and The Wreck Room (RIP) at which we debuted four new songs. You can hear these songs from the Continental show on the "Sounds" page. The last two months we've just kind of been taking it easy, just jamming and writing some more new songs. We've also invested in some semi-pro recording gear so we can record our new stuff at our on pace and on our own dime from now on. So stay tuned for a new demo sometime this year. hopefully before the summer.
We will be playing CBGB's Downstair's Lounge on Friday, April 22 so come on out to East Village and check us out if you're looking for a good time. Click on "Shows" for details.
