Run Squirrel

Run Squirrel is a 4 piece rock outfit from Newcastle, Australia. Featuring members from many other well known Newcastle folk, punk, post-hardcore and metal bands (Like... Alaska, Captain My Captain, Caverns, Bats & Battleships) their eclectic tastes mash together to form a cohesive and intense sound akin to At The Drive-In, Brand New and other bands in and around the various "post" genres. http://www.facebook.com/runsquirrelnc

Polyfox and the Union of the most ghosts

A fox wanders into a grey forest, the grey forest inspires in the fox heart the polychameleon elements of its fox circulatory system, lighting fires of forest greens through its fox fur. This causes splinters of fox colour to shoot like arrows from the tips of the fox fur printing the surrounding forest in fox colours. Mini and big fox alike become lost in the fox foliage. The whole grey forest is as though it is wearing a fox fur coat.
