This day in history: We played our first show on this date in 2008, at a now-defunct hair salon on Seventh Street with now-buddies JJCnV and a half-dozen now-defunct acts. To our knowledge, there's no photographic evidence of the performance, so here's a picture of us now (minus Cappy), 12 years later.

Future Like the Past: Unreleased SvT 2009-2016, by Scorpion vs. Tarantula 29/06/2020

Hey, everybody. We've been scouring the archives to come up with a li'l compilation of unreleased tracks from our first nine years as a band. It's now available to listen or download for free. It's got demos (including our first recordings), unmixed stuff, outtakes and other tracks that just never made it onto a record. Thanks to all the past SvT members and killer engineers who made it all possible, including Full Well Recording Studio, Ghetto Recorders and Audioconfusion. Enjoy!
