Some of you may have seen the news on the Black Rain site about Lee's motorbike accident. Just to let you all know, Lee broke his right knee and has had surgery to put the knee back together. All is well though as the healing process is moving along nicely and Lee should be walking again within 2 weeks and most importantly, riding his Harley againvery soon!!! ;-)

Some of you may have noticed that we now have an OFFICIAL MySpace profile for Aslna Faction. Tonight I'm uploading a couple of previously unreleased AF material. www.myspace.com/aslanfactionuk

10May2006

To all our fans out there who use, MySpace.com, there is NO official Aslan Faction MySpace site!!!!!! There is someone out there pretending to be us claiming to be from Canada. Seeing as we are both American's, why would we setup a site in Canada? If you have been in contact with the onwer of this MySpace profile, just realize that it is not Anthony or Lee. If you want to reach us do so on either the Killing Ophelia or Tactical Sekt profiles;

From bith Ant and Lee, we wish you the very best this holiday season . . . staty tuned for more news in the coming year!!!!!

07Sep2004

As many of you know, both of us have been very busy over the last few months with tours, side projects and work. Unfortunately there is no sign that this will get better anytime soon. We would like nothing more than to release a new album (including the best of the Weep For Me remixes) but we really just can't see that happening this year. This year has seen some dramatic changes in our lives (some of you will know more than I can say here) and hopefully by the end of this year things will begin to calm down a little. For the time being we will not be doing anymore live shows except for the planned show at Black Celebration in London at the end of October.

In the meantime, just remember that allot is happening with our other projects! Tactical Sekt has begun writing a new album which should be out in Mar2005. Killing Ophelia has also begun a new CD, no firm release dates are planned but expect to hear more in late 2004/early 2005. Ant & Lee's noise project, Discipline Unit will be releasing a CD very soon . . . stay tuned! The new CD "Crossfire" from Lee's project CYGORE is nearly finished; look forward to seeing that in the near future.

To all our fans, please don't loose hope; we should be back in 2005!!!! To all of you who remixed Weep For Me, thanks very much for all your work, we have not forgotten and will do something with them as soon as we can!!!

All the best Ant and Lee . . .

Ok, it's been far too long since we have posted any news here, so let's go;

As most of you are aware by now, we, along with many other Black Rain/NoiTekk bands will be performing together on the same stage at Wave Gothic Treffen. This has meant a lot of work (work that we love to do) for us all to put on great shows for all of you!!! Just when I thought I was all ready, my laptop died six months into it's warranty, which is bad news because both Aslan Faction and Killing Ophelia rely on the machine. Now it's all sorted and we are ready to roll again but it has all happened just in the nick of time since we have the show in Finland this weekend!!!!

Allot of people have been asking me on ICQ, when we will announce the winner of the Weep For Me remix contest. I wish I could be sure, but I'd guess we will announce sometime in June. We have not even had a chance to listen to all the entries, but if the rest are anything like what we've heard so far, it will be hard to pick just one winner!!!!

Unfortunately, this is it for now. We are really looking forward to seeing everyone at the WGT and also the new friends we will meet in Finland this weekend!!!!

To start the year off, we'd like to invite our fans to do a remix for us!! As many of you know, our last EP, "Sin-Drome Of Separation" had a remix of every new track except for "Weep For Me".

Don't worry about the size of the download, the file sizes will be kept as small as possible. In order to get the server address and log-in details, please fill out this form.
