Aug 21, 2012 at 4:49 PM the nice young men over at iDie:youDie gave 'Hate Life' a lovely review, which i recommend you take a look at:
click here for the full review
"It’s a neat experience to take in an LP like this as a sort of time capsule, presenting flash frozen examples of the various sounds Newman was investigating, often at the peak of their critical and commercial success: American coldwave, darkwave, and good old fashioned electro-industrial all crop up in equal turns and ably balanced. "
it's really a great review...

Feb 6, 2012 at 6:49 PM although it took a lot longer than expected, the new album from the valley of wolves is now available.
graham had this to say about it:
"this one is the best record we've made so far. definitely the heaviest, and definitely an indicator of future work to come. unlike the first album, this one costs something...even though it's close to nothing. i want to see if people are willing to buy it instead of just ignoring another album that's free...and i want my two dollars..."
Dec 30, 2011 at 7:34 PM the album 'westward expansion' is now available via bandcamp.
