Hey everyone
My band Tempus Fugit has been working on an album for the past couple of years on and off - here is a sample of one of the songs - almost done - not mastered - let me know what you think - it is called Soap Stains and Ashes - http://www.darrincappe.com/Podcast/SoapS...dAshes.mp3.

Our first album can be downloaded from our site at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.fugitland.ca">http://www.fugitland.ca</a><!-- m --> - http://www.fugitland.ca/whenyourehavingfun-proper.shtml

Cool stuff! Music is always great when it's free and sounds this good. On the first listen right now. :music

[let_me_out]

Great song. I've downloaded the last album from your site. I will listen later. I now have high hopes...

[sherpa]

Thanks! The first album has some good songs IMHO - All Over Again, +Clover, Solitude (My Tribe) and Slip Away are all good in my biased opinion. The new album is much better, I think.

Hey Sherpa, I've finally gotten around to listening to this, and it's great stuff! Thanks muchly.

Really good stuff.. has a bit of a barstool prophets vibe in some of the songs. I really like the progressive elements as well.

Also, did you guys derive your name from the Yes song?

[sherpa]

Yes to Yes - the band started in High School back in 1986 - Prog influenced stuff, Peter Gabriel, Genesis, Yes, Marillion, RUSH etc, our motto should be "if there is a space to breathe we'll fill it with something - probably a prog keyboard of some sort"
We did a retrospectively humbling cassette in 1986 on 4 track called Beyond The Barrier which is about immortality or something - I think it is actually more pedantic than the title implies.
Then in 1997 we got together and played around Toronto until about 2001 - during which time we release "...When You're Having Fun" ... get it? Tempus Fugit - When You're Having Fun.... anyway - in 2007 we got back together and recorded this album which we've worked on - on and off - for the past 3 years.
We'll be doing a CD release in Feb 2011 in Toronto and probably a show in Montreal in April - I'll post info as I have it.

I was at a print trade show and one of the vendors were showcasing a new press, and some posters they printed on it. The posters were for "Tempus Fugit".... and I was shocked that a young band would have a postering run of this size. Upon further inspection I saw that the product being advertised was Tempus Fugit Spirits:

I love the poster Chris - I think we'll try to use it for album 3

I threw this together yesterday
