Not sure anyone has checked out the site in the last few days but they have a video up of Dave adding some guitar to a new track in the studio.

From the sounds of it with the new band will also come a new sound, which I will say I am curious to hear in it's entirety.

I hadn't posted on here for ages & in fact rarely do, despite reading/ lurking on here almost weekly but after reading this thread thought I should comment with my opinions and say that while I must admit It's great that there is some official input from the (new lineup part of the) band on the official domain name, however I feel this site has certainty worked very hard to create & indeed promoted everything that has happened to Soul Asylum for many years now so I believe that the new site on the official domain name http://soulasylum.com/ should at the VERY least have a link prominently displayed to this site as that is certainly very least this site deserves for all the their hard work, especially as I'm sure a lot of visitors to this site originally found their way to here via soulasylum.com & therefore may well not be able to find this site now if they are typing into their browser/bookmarks, soulasylum.com

Very well put, Andrew. I completely agree and I guess that's what I was trying to say in my previous post. I'm fine with the new site, but I think there definitely needs to be a link back to here on it. Both sites are cool, but this one shouldn't be ignored by the new domain. Especially since the new official one is more of a blog type site and this is both a fan forum and more of an informational site, so they're both unique. Like I said, both are cool, but a link on there would be great so new fans can easily find both sites.

wow, i'm so behind - i am only now just reading about the new site.
having some computer issues so i couldn't browse the new site much.
i think maybe they should have a temporary link to here to help people who bookmarked this site the other way. but i can see them not having one permanently - cuz i don't see other band official sites linking to fan sites, and while this one was the official for awhile it's ok if they want to take it back now that they have somebody interested in doing the site.

i think it's nice that they realized their old site was not being kept up and recognized that redirecting to here made sense at the time.

also - i commented on the other post abotu the new song clip but i (from what i can tell) really like the new sound. reminds me of the 'can't even tell' sound more than their usual stuff and i love that song.
