Hello everyone,
you are probably wondering why the band's myspace page is different and looks broken...
I have made the decision to leave Kid vs Hero. It wasn't a decision made lightly, but after a lot of thought, careful consideration and talking for a while with Kevin and the rest of the band.
What it came down to was the inability to continue to work on a positive level with Chris. Every little details seemed to cause issues between us and the relentless arguing and bickering was getting on my nerves. After a phone call the other day, where the arguing again continued, I told him that I was done. I no longer wanted to deal with the pointless, relentless arguing.
I had been contemplating the change also because the style of music we were playing towards the end did not reflect at all the style I had in mind when I started the band back in april.
After I told them I quit, our new bassist Josh also made the choice to leave the band, though he didn't give a direct reason.
As for Kevin and Chris, I am not sure what their plan is. Perhaps they will continue to work as Kid vs Hero, maybe it's the end of the band that barely got started, though we did play some rather sweet shows.
Meanwhile, keep an eye out for www.myspace.com/tylergahnmusic it is a new band that I am starting with a good, very talented friend of mine...We are in the very early stages of still writing and working on the music but plan to be ready to play shows here very soon...
Take Care.

Recording News
Hey we felt it was important to update you all on what's going on!
We made the decision to self-produce our debut album, and it's going very well. Kevin has finished up his drums for all the tracks, and Josh has just completed the bass parts! All that's left is for Chris to finish up some guitar parts, and for Rob to record all of his parts...which will be done tomorrow sometime!
We made the decision to move away from any large studio and into our own for three reason:
The First;
The expense of what we were planning to do far outweighed what was realistic for where we want to be in the very near future.
The Second;
We truly wanted to do a full album, but didn't have the funding to do this, and settled on (at the time) a three song sampler.
The Third;
We wanted to emerse ourselves in the music, we all have audio production backgrounds, and have confidence that our full album will turn out just how we want it to!
So what's that mean for you?
NEW SONGS COMING SOON!

Wow I've been a busy lately!
So some news on my part for ya,
I've been working every freakin day usually 8:00am-11:00pm which is wearing me out a bit...on the nights I get home earlier, Tyler has been coming over to work on the album together, and let me just say how excited I am for the direction and great the songs are turning out...we are on step 3 of about 50 lol but the end will be worth it!
I go in on sunday to record all of my guitar parts for Kid vs Hero. Our album is coming out soon too, we just have to finish it. I'm very excited to hear what the guys have done without me these past few weeks, I just read on the KvH blog that Kevin has his drumparts done, and Josh is already done with bass! now it's just down to chris and I...
It's a lot of work lately but two great music projects coming out with new music very soon, one band I'm going to be mixing & mastering our self-produced album, the other band I'll be helping with co-writes and the song development and selecting the right studio (we have a few in mind) and then taking the rest of the project from there...album design, printing, pressing, releasing to the media, booking the first show for Tyler....it's gonna be sweet!
I feel like if I had a week off I would have everything done by now...oh well more fun to come in the weeks ahead!
Later, I need tea then I'm off to work

News News News
So we just wanted to update you all really quick. So January 5th we began tracking new songs at Destiny Worldwide Studios, with Brandon Metcalf, and we are stoked.
Until then we will be locked away at our rehearsal space, writing new songs, and working on the older ones. Josh has the songs down tight and is already contributing so much to the band, we are very excited to have him, and even more excited that he's ready for the studio, and the shows coming up after that.
Speaking of shows, already have them lined up for our return, and will be posting the details very soon so keep your eyes open. You're gonna wanna be at our first show back, not only to hear the new music, but also to meet Josh.
Video Update coming soon, but meanwhile, enjoy the holidays!

Update!
So...
Who had fun at our show this last weekend w/Daphne Loves Derby, Sunderlyn, Look Closer and Shadows at Morning? We sure did! Thank you all for coming out and listening, we had such a great time, and it was a good show right before our little leave of absence...
So let's start with a few updates...First of all we wanted to let you all know about some changes within Kid vs Hero. Sometimes no matter how hard you try, there are fundamental differences between people musically that you can't overcome. That being said, Tori didn't leave the band on bad terms, things simply didn't work out musically and we have found someone who is a perfect fit for Kid vs Hero. So, without and further hesitation, please give a warm welcome to our newest member Josh! He's going to be taking over on bass and we are very excited to have him. Be sure to leave a comment saying hi!
In other news, we are taking a small break to go into the studio with Brandon Metcalf and the guys at Destiny Worldwide to record some new music. So we are going to spend the rest of December getting Josh ready and working on pre-pre-production for the songs we are going to record. Then in January we are going to head into the studio to start recording! So new songs coming soon!
So no shows for a little while, but we are cool with that if you are, and when we return we will have some new music for you.
We can't wait to start playing with Josh, he's a nice guy and an amazing bassist, we are sad to see Tori go and wish her the best, but sometimes things happen and you have to go with the flow, and finally....
KID VS HERO is going into the studio in January! :)
Love,
Chris, Rob, Kevin & Josh
