'Lock Jaw'. Alongside the title track the recording features the songs 'Bon Fire' and 'The Rattler' which are staples in the band's live set list. 2006 saw the release of the single 'Let Me Go'. This was followed by the self-tilted debut album in 2007 which also included the band's signature tune 'Warhead' - a heavy riff-laden tune about the Great White shark. Left without a drummer in early 2010, the band recorded the acoustic album 'Acoustic, Electric, Eclectic'. This album has recently been remastered with the addition of previously unreleased tracks and was released on digital format only in October 2019. With the 25th anniversary of the band's formation approaching, the band has commissioned the remastering of its debut E.P. 'Lock Jaw' and is set to celebrate the release in early 2020.
