Recently, the band launched the first parts of their multi-part documentary series entitled "Welcome To The Garden States":

Stay tuned for the upcoming episodes that will detail the journey to the upcoming album, »The Wings Of War«.

Recently, the band released the second single entitled, "Head Of A Pin".

Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth comments, "Head of a Pin" took a long time to come together, it is probably the tune that went through the most changes and the last one I finished. Looking back on it's development, the time invested was all well worth it. The tonality of the guitar shines on it and the song goes 'other places', traditional with a touch of the down-low-dirty riff, and a sing-along chorus...personally, one of my favorites offThe Wings of War."
