"a brand new madina



heyyoo !


just wanted to check in with you guys.. we’ve been on a mission to get things back to “normal” for weeks. pushing ahead with Madina while whipping Matthew back into shape. Unfortunately he ended up back in the ER yesterday with a ruptured wisdom tooth. These are the types of things we’re going to be dealing with for the next year.. Injuries of this magnitude do all kinds of things to the body and one of them was shaking loose a wisdom tooth and having his immune system fighting so many things, it’s bound to fail from time to time. However, we’re getting through it and are ecstatic of the notion that just maybe one day things will be back to normal.


The alleged suspect has been formally charged with Attempted First Degree Murder, Aggravated Battery Causing Serious Bodily Harm and Aggravated Battery in a Public Place. More on that in time but focusing on the positive ..The “Through The Pain” benefit shows start tonight. It’s a grandiose display of Chicago’s integrity, loyalty, compassion and strength and we’re so effing lucky to have such amazing people in our lives. After these shows we’re going to be releasing a new song from our forthcoming record “Word War III”. We’d been demoing tracks for the record and Matthew recorded bass on this song the day before the incident. He was the last to record on it which is kind of strange because lately we’ve been tracking guitar and vox first, drums & bass last.. lyrically, the song is oddly premonicious (which is a word i think i just made up lol).. anyhow, we’re very proud of it and can’t wait to share.. details of it’s release will be determined this week so stay tuned..


as always, thank you again for everything.. we’re putting madina back together and the EP and WW3 are just around the corner which will begin a brand new chapter in our lives, band and perspective. There’s an old adage I try to live by which says “you are who you are and where you are because of the dominating thoughts that you allow to occupy your mind” .. so let them be positive, optimistic and inspiring thoughts.. crush the rest of em..
