New promo CD

And we all thought History Of Guns second album Apophenia would be the next release... Bizarrely History Of Guns have released a new promo cd titled "Apospemia (a collection of b-sides)". This new cd contains soundclips of songs from the forthcoming album mixed up into a curious audio montage, followed by what the band describe as "tracks which in an alternative universe would have been the b-sides to all the massively successful singles from new guns album Apophenia..." Confused? Have the guns gone too far this time?! Find out for yourself... a limited quantity of the new promos are available free of charge to visitors to this site

Where is Apophenia?

When asked in the pub when History Of Guns highly anticipated second album APOPHENIA would actually be released, the guns looked a little shifty. Del Gun said it was well all Max's fault... Max Rael mumbled something about it being down to Fester... and Fester just smiled with an insane grin in his eye... When pressed further as to whether the rumours were true that they'd spent all the profits from sales of Flashes Of Light LP on 500 hour long Whitby Promos that they'd given away for nothing Max Rael said, 'Look the cds will be out when the time is right, that is we've got a plan... right... and there's stuff about funding and everything but we're not gonna let you down... it's just... it's going to be worth the wait' APOPHENIA TRACKLISTING: 1) Death Of A Nation 2) Your Obedient Servants 3) I Am / You Are 4) One In Three 5) Apophenia ------------------------------------------------- 6) Divide And Conquer 7) Does Anyone Remember The War? 8) TV Spotlight 9) Battle Of The Bands 10) History Of Guns / After The Breakdown

History Of Guns 27 Paces DVD

"In a departure from the messed up blend of dark ambient and noisy beats of debut album FLASHES OF LIGHT LP, the guns played a breathtaking high energy industrial punk set"...

FLASHES OF LIGHT LP

History Of Guns blend experimental ambient, crunchy beats, white noise chaos and more melodic elements for their acclaimed debut album 'Flashes Of Light LP'!

"An astonishing piece of music" - Cool Noise "Oddly brilliant, like a goth metal Underworld" - Metal Hammer "they are, by far, the most inventive UK band to have got their hands caught in the Industrial threshing machine." - Mick Mercer "the single most startling album i've heard so far during 2004" - Adrian Denning Reviews "Scary as hell, but just as fiery." - Teletext (used with permission, (thanks to all concerned!), full reviews in the Press section)
