It is with great regret that we have to announce we will no longer be touring the States in November / December. It was nothing to do with us, Dance Gavin Dance have some issues right now and have pulled the tour. We're absolutely gutted, but we're already planning something else so don't be too sad and stay tuned!

In other news, our album Go Now And Live was re-released in the UK today. It comes with an 11-track bonus disc of our Live & Unplugged acoustic show at London's Bush Hall in August.

Hassle Records are shipping worldwide from their online store, so even those of you outside of the UK can order a copy here; http://hasslerecords.sandbag.uk.com/Store/DII-2553-1-we+are+the+ocean:+go+now+and+live+reissue+preorder.html.


We're currently on tour in the UK with The Blackout for another 6 days and then we head to mainland Europe for more of the same!

We've teamed up with brand new mobile app based social newtorking site Flowd (www.flowd.com) and are running an exclusive competition for its users and our fans at our Live & Unplugged acoustic show at London's Bush Hall on August 18th!

Its quite simple; All you need to do is check in to the event 'We Are The Ocean @ Bush Hall' using Flowd on your iPhone / Nokia Touch / Android once you are in the queue! (NOTE: you won't be able to check in unless you are actually at Bush Hall). Check-in starts at 4pm and the first 5 people to do it will earn early entrance to the gig with a plus one (so a friend can come with you) to watch us soundcheck and also meet us!

Additionally, everyone who takes part and check's in will be entitled to a free poster, which you can claim at our merch desk inside thed venue by showing them your Flowd on your phone!

Its as easy as that!
