Close To Insane, Eating Fossils!

Below you will find the official music video for "Superspecies."
This is a Toronto-centric affair featuring ample live footage.

This song addresses humankind's exploitation of the natural world,
and the fact that we humans TRULY don't have any friends.

Cursed Arrows Are Moving To Halifax

ANNOUNCEMENT

Cursed Arrows are relocating
to Nova Scotia
in the coming Autumn months.

We've been mulling this over for years.
We wanted to give the full extent of ourselves
to our home province
before we left,
and that,
we have done.

A couple hundred live shows,
and two self-produced albums.

Now is the right time for us to move.
(There is never a right time.)
To keep moving.
To tour more than we stay in place.

We can't afford this move monetarily,
but ideologically,
it is the most reasonable option.

To be poor by the ocean,
instead of these lakes.

We've got a massive third full-length album
ready to record.


Demons already unleashed.
Goodbyes already said.
We've sung and screamed.
We've learned and been burned.

Nothing
left
unsaid.

The Coast was kind enough to pick up on our news,
and write about it.

From Naked Ape To Superspecies

We've been talking about this book for at least 5 years.
We won't stop until everybody listens.

David Suzuki and Holly Dressel
provide a heavily researched
and supremely enjoyable primer
on humankind's exploitative position
as gutless consumers
of the earth's natural systems.

The Nurse Should Not Be The One Who Puts Salt In Your Wounds

You can't stop where music takes you.

Thank you to those who support what we do.

Night Run Of The Living Forever Dead



Music video for our song "Run Forever" from the album Telepathic High Five. Comprised exclusively using footage from one of our favourite radical 60's independent films, Night of the Living Dead.

The guerrilla-style direction and improvisational performances provide a unique visual take on a socio-political protest song about the decimation of Lake Victoria cichlids by the Nile Perch.
The loss of half of these fish has been termed "the greatest vertebrate mass extinction in recorded history."
