the Holy Kiss- new record, new tour, the end?

So we have good news and bad news regarding the Holy Kiss. First the bad: after a good run spanning a good portion of the decade, the Holy Kiss have decided to throw in the towel. Still looking to fight the good fight, members are splintering off to other cities across the US (some winding up in New York, others in Portland, some staying in the Bay Area), this will make it near impossible to continue. Still, you'll more than likely see these familiar faces pop up in new bands in no time.

The good news, though, is that this will not be happening without a good amount of fanfare as the band is releasing their final record (and first recordings with Alli and Panther in the line up), entitled "Under Noon of Night" in a limited vinyl LP format. It's a collaborative effort between the band and Hungry Eye, will be limited to 500 copies and boast a silk screened cover. The final tour will also be their first jaunt over to Europe, and will take the band to Spain, France, Holland, Belgium, Germany and the Czech Republic. Be sure to check back for a lot of news regarding the Holy Kiss in the coming weeks.

You'll shortly be seeing:
-an mp3 sample of some new material on the website
-pre-orders for the LP going up shortly (shipping in March '09)
-full tour dates
-anything else that comes up along the way!
