This Side of Emptiness

My son there is no end, only eternity
Wait beside me to surrender this body
To hear your voice over and over
It repeats the message
“Look above the soil and feel the wind carry me”

My father’s eyes swollen over the years apart
Take my hand to share the loneliness
And repeat these words I speak
“Look beyond the days and feel the warmth of the sunrise”

Pieces of my heart scattered in the darkness
My dear boys love lodges within my skin
The words singing in my head
“Turn to me and feel my love”

My mother’s will shattered to the sea
I’ll lift her spirits from the ground to the sky
As she whispers in my ears
“My love is lost within up. It will be mine when we meet again

It's been a while............

As you all know we finished and released our EP This Side of Emptiness this past spring. We are very proud of it and are glad so many of you enjoyed the music. Due to being a part-time band with full-time ambitions, life sometimes makes you put the band in the back burner. Because of us having families and loved ones to attend to we needed to take some time and reconnect with everyone. We've spent the last three years playing shows, recording, and promoting this band. Which leaves holes in your personal life. Therefore we have not played shows in a few months. Don't worry because of the down time we have begun to write a new EP. We are calling the writing sessions L.H.T.D. Can you figure out what that means? HAHA. Our plans are to hit the rehearsals hard in the coming months to finishing writing and start to record our new EP. We are working hard to take our music to a new level and expand on our sound. If all goes well we should have some songs up in the spring of next year. We will of course continue to promote the band here on myspace and at several shows in L.A, say hello if you see us!!!

We will be posting a new song "Beyond The Days" in a few weeks. Also our guitarist Danny "Jedi" has created a grand new myspace layout which will also be coming out soon. Be sure to check out the new video for "Masked Parade." We shot it in the high desert of Palmdale at Brady's house, our dear Street Team leader. It was an awesome time. We have also been asked a lot about touring and we hope to get out somewhere close to you next year. If you want us to play your hometown hit us up and let us know.

In light of the holidays we are having a sale at the merch store, bullettoeden.bigcartel.com and SNOCAP. Our old EP Lovers is only $1.50 at SNOCAP. This Side of Emptiness is $3, for a physical CD with a jewel case and booklet, and our Lovers shirt is $5 at our bigcartel store. Buy some merch to help support us and get some cool stuff for the holidays!

Lastly on this long blog post we wanted to thank every single one of you who has supported and helped us out. It means a lot to us and makes everything worth while. With that we still need you to help spread BTE to the masses. Join the street team, myspace.com/btestreetteam, post our songs and banners on your page. Tell some of your friends to add us. Every little bit helps. Speaking of our fans L.V.S.B.F.D., myspace.com/lvsbfd, will be doing a cover of The Justification. Should be very cool. When they post it we will tell you. Since we are writing again check out the blog at bullettoeden.blogspot.com for random posts and pics. Thanks again and hit us up!!!

Almost There

Hey everyone! We are almost done with the new EP. In the meantime we will be playing two shows towards the end of the month on Dec 18 & 19. More Details on our www.myspace.com/bullettoeden. We are all extremely happy with the way the music came out and are positive everyone will enjoy the results. Attached are a few pictures of all the fun we had. More to come as we finish up the vocals and synths. This process was a great learning experience and we had a blast working with Roger. We also gained a few pounds as Roger introduced us to some of the fine dining available in Irvine.
One last note for our shows at the end of this month we are going to have a special tribute to Chi by performaning a few Deftones covers. We are hoping for the best for Chi. As many can tell from our sound Deftones have been a huge inspiration to us. Hope that many of you can come to either of the shows.
