thank you and new AmberAsylum merchandise
Thank you to all who attended one of our shows this past weekend. We had some very successful performances. In other news, please take a look at the new AmberAsylum t-shirts on our shopkeeper page, created exclusively for AmberAsylum by artist, David V. D'Andrea! Unfortunately, (and fortunately!), the shirts were such a success up North, that we return with only a handful available in each size. So, get 'em while they're hot!

AmberAsylum cell phone ring tone???
We are a part of a very interesting project that has just been launched by Start Mobile in which they have collected 60-second musical loops by a variety of underground musicians and created free cell phone ring tones! You can download one of two AmberAsylum ring tones for free during the first 60 days of launch, after which they will start charging $ for them. The two ring tones available by us are excerpts from our songs Luxuria and Still Point. Other artists include Zoe Keating, Kid Beyond, My Life with the Thrill Kill Cult, American Heartbreak, and Crime in Choir.

news
AmberAsylum has just finished recording our fifth full-length CD at Louder Studios, San Francisco, CA, engineered by Tim Green (The Fucking Champs). Currently, we are in the process of mixing the tracks and are very much anticipating it's release since our last full-length was released almost five years ago! We have a lot of new material and feel this album is going to be worth the wait. Release date not yet confirmed.
Nanotear Booking is working on our upcoming tour in May with Jarboe and Unto Ashes. If you are on the East Coast, please keep your eyes and ears open as our shows become confirmed. We will keep you updated on this page of our web site as we have more information.
