This Is A Standoff - Be Excited


This Is A Standoff -- A name almost as long as the distance that separates
these four guys. Although formed from opposite sides of the country, this
band still manages to get together to write music, tour, and even have a pint
or two.

After the demise of one of Canada's hardest working punk bands, Belvedere,
Steve and Graham were set on starting a new project and getting back on the
road. In the summer of 2006, they recruited John (Forty Cent Fix) all the way
from Ottawa. For over a month, Steve and John spent their time working
construction, watching The Sopranos, and writing some hot blazing tracks.

In November, the band released two demo songs, "Silvio" and "Better Than All
Of Us", through their Myspace page, and received an overwhelming response
from listeners worldwide. With the recent addition of Corey (Deville,
Inventing The Wheel) on bass, the band has been hard at work writing and
rehearsing twelve songs, which will appear on the band's debut release later
this year.

But first things first, the band will be hitting the road for nearly a month
in Europe this spring to give people a sample of the new band and the new
songs. With a fresh start, This Is A Standoff is ready to take over the
world.
