October 1st, 2004:To all those who are looking for songs, we are now going to randomly change them every few days. Collect them all if you can motherfuckers!
September 28th, 2004:The show on Friday was kind of a bust, the P.A. was crap. The 40 still melted faces with our ferocious brand of rock, you just couldn't hear us sing. A blessing and a curse...Anyway, the album artwork is getting into high gear, and we're rocking the socks off of everyone we come in contact to! I also took some time off of colouring to update the page! Look around, I'm sure you'll find things like 2 of the songs off of our new/old EP called "Keepers of the takes from Hell" The other songs on the EP will be Carstairs Blues, She's So Perfect, Kill Me Anyway, and Kenneth and His Cat. Those of you hardcore fans who bought Solar Powered Sex Machine will recognize two or three of the tunes (depending on which edition you own) and the other three are brand new "live off the studio floor" takes of our oldest songs. The EP will cost $5 by itself or $15 when bundled with Cougar Bait, which will cost $10 on its own.
September 21st:Jar has begun the transformation the will ultimately become our brand new website! Check out the 40 Photos section- there's only 20 so far but what the fuck! It's actually nice out here in Calgary. No use sitting on the net all day.
September 16th: Alright 40 fans a new gig has been confirmed on Friday, Sept. 24th. Inspected will be opening for Kiss the Queen and Kiss of Death at the Bankview Community Hall 2418 17th Street S.W. This is an all ages show so bring hidable booze, and our ongoing charity for unbroken things is still kickin.
