09.14.08 - Productivity = The Thirteenth Hour A second Klog update in as many days? Holy crotchless jeans, Batman! And no, you will never know what the hell is up with all these inside joke references, just read the damn update! (Clicky...) 09.12.08 - Klog-ing with Beavis McTreevis Freaks, it's your boys from TTH checkin' in once again! Efforts at recording our new EP are bearing fruit that may end civilization, and which just might be able to overcome your metal-disappointment if you happen to buy a certain band's latest turd of an album today. ...And do you notice something missing just below this update? Hmm... might want to read the latest Klog! 08.26.08 - Recording, Klog-ing, drinking whiskey at the crack o' noon! Freaks, I see you once again binary-boarded over to good ol' TTH.com hoping to hear an update on the recording process for our new EP... And do you think that just because you looked, magically an update will appear?!? Ok fine, I guess you're right: Click for the Klog! 08.12.08 - Return of the Living Klog Freaks, the ever wordy son-of-a-bitch, KT, has (finally) provided us with our seriously over due Klog fix! Which is good, because I see you all out there going through the dt's and it's really not attractive. Get it together, read the Klog-ing goodness (read: "mess of inside jokes"), and get to spreading the word for a bass player! And yes, this was written on 08.10.08 and took a couple days to make it on the site, sorry 'bout that. P.S. If you have forgotten why this thing is called the Klog, look back a couple updates through our archives section and bask in the understanding. P.P.S. If you didn't know it by now, we are a METAL band, so "I play a lot of progressive blues" guy is probably not going to dig this shit! If you want to play bass for us, it really helps to like our music! 07.24.08 - Bassist needed immediately! I know you're thinking "Huh? Didn't they just get a bass player?" Unfortunately, Brook was not able to stay on as our bassist, which we knew was a possibility. Due to current commitments, he has elected to move in another direction. We wish him all the best is his future endeavors! ...Which brings us to a bassist search once again! With all the guarded mystery about this strange month and a half demo writing time that KT has been writing about in his "Klog" column (see below), we now feel that we should let some of the cat out of the proverbial bag, namely being that we were asked to write and record a showcase demo for a well known metal label. We thought we would show them how fast we can work and set this deadline for ourselves, but have since been assured that it is the outcome that matters, not the lead time. We calmed down, concentrated on writing the best material we can, and are now set to record, starting 07.27.08. Without a bassist, Andy Oliphant and/or Kevin Thomas will most likely end up recording bass tracks, but we MUST have a bassist soon for obvious reasons. If you are, or know of, a bassist with the gear, chops, and attitude to be in a serious (and hopefully soon to be touring) metal band, you need to contact us! Email Andy, andy@thethirteenthhour.com or call 661.492.7828 (serious calls only, fuckholes). You must be able to reherse in the Antelope Valley area (north of Hollywood), and be ready to gig ASAP. **Male or female** (if female, must be hotter than Kev) If you aren't a bassist, or aren't interested, tell someone who might be. If you don't know someone who might be, tell someone who might know someone else who might be!! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to step into a spot like this and not start from the ground up! 05.13.05 - Klog, Episode 2 Service Pack 1 Christmas time is here, Freaks! Well, not really, but our bizzare working titles for new songs continues. Click here for the latest Klog (AKA "Kevin Thomas' Untitled Blog" for those of you that haven't seen the past episodes.) 5.09.05 - Klog, Episode 2-beta What's up Freaks! In this rare (and hopefully unrepeated) early morning edition of Klog we once again realize... Kev writes alot! ...er, wait, I meant to say the mean 13 machine is still at it, and roaring towards this demo! Or crawling... something-ing anyway! (Click for Klog) 05.05.08 - The number of the Klog Freaks, I think ol' KT has lost what was left of his mind on this one. In this third episode of the latest internet craze known as Klog (standing for Kevin Thomas' Untitled Blog), we discover previously unknown connections between Mario Batali and The Thirteenth Hour... apparently both have professed their love for god-forsaken footwear. Click if ye be brave enough! 05.04.08 - Klog, episode 1.5 We figured since it will be a regularly updated piece, the Kevin Thomas untitled blog (hereby know as Klog) should have it's own space, apart from Brendan's "Rants" section. Check out the latest update, click here! (the Klog is a pop-up window, so make sure your pop-up blocker allows it). 05.03.08 - "Rants, Facts, and Bitchery" returns! Brendan Leeigh's irregular column returns this week with guest writer (and TTH rhythm guitarist / vocalist) Kevin Thomas. In his first installment in the chronicles of writing an EP, we delve into the previously un-seen depths of The Thirteenth Hour's inner bowel... or something very akin to that anyway. CLICK HERE! (or go to the rants section under the "news" section to the left). 04.12.08 - Press Check out the interview with Brendan Leeigh for GearByOwner.com in the Press Releases section under the Band Bio. See the first unveiling of his new Rockett Drum Works kit! Filmed at Winter NAMM 2008 @ the Rockett Drum Works booth. Since becoming an endorsed artist under their previous name, Brendan's involvement with the company has grown, and he became even more hands-on, signing on as Project Manager (you can see him on rockettdrumworks.com as both artist & employee). 04.06.08 - Press Check out the press releases section under the band bio to see Brendan Leeigh's new Rockett Drum Works kit in Drum Business Magazine, reporting on this years Winter NAMM Show in Anaheim, CA. 04.01.08 - The Thirteenth Hour announces new bassist! We're proud to welcome Brook Spencer into The Thirteenth Hour as our new bassist (at least for the time being)! Brook is a good friend of Brendan's, and has agreed to fill the bass slot for the immediate future. What poor ol' Brook doesn't know yet, is that after his first show he'll be hooked like a Hate Junky, and as much a slave to the un-stopable TTH monster as the rest of us! He'll be trained up and kicking ass in no time, and once again we'll see everyone at the next show!!! On another note, Kevin Thomas and Andy Oliphant are very excited to announce their endorsement by D'Andrea Music Products, makers of Snarling Dogs! 02.09.08 - Added Kevin Thomas pic to the "misc. pics" section 01.18.08 - The Thirteenth Hour @ 2008 Winter NAMM The Thirteenth Hour is having a blast this year at the winter NAMM show in Anaheim, CA. If you don't know what the hell a NAMM is, it's the biggest music trade show around, with hundreds of companies displaying everything under the sun musical instrument related. Brendan is an artist with Rockett Drum Works, and is attending the whole show. RDW was kind enough to get Andy & Kevin in as well, so Andy tore the place up today, Friday, and Kev will be making an appearance on Sunday. If you are going to the show, stop by the Rockett Drum Works booth, #2360, and say what's up to Brendan and the RDW crew. On another exciting NAMM note, Brendan has unveiled his brand new custom Rockett Drum Works kit! There isn't enough room for the whole thing, but pieces of it are on display at the RDW booth, and you can see it and other NAMM happenings right here at tth.com in the Miscellaneous Pics section (or click here). 01.03.08 - New Years Eve pics & more Attention Freaks: Happy fucking new year! Now that we've recovered from our hangovers, check out the miscellaneous pics section to see a couple snap shots of us tearing it up with some good friends! Hopefully we will see some of you out at NAMM this month in Anaheim, where we will be hanging out with out existing gear companies and rustling up new ones as well! By the way, we can't thank you enough for your support and endless curiosity about everything TTH. Thanks you all of you Freaks out there, we had 11,623 hits on this website in December! Hell yes! Great job everyone, keep it up, and let us know what you think! As always, thanks for sticking around, and keep an eye out for the latest news in 2008! 12.29.07 - 2007 wrap up Hello, Freaks! So, we're wrapping up 2007, I can't believe it's another year gone. It's been an exciting one for The Thirteenth Hour, with the release of our debut album "Echoes of Life" online @ iTunes, Napster, Rhapsody, and Yahoo. We haven't been able to see everyone up close and personal as much as we would like, with an open bass player spot, but thanks to our good friend Travis Squire, we were at least able to play a very important show dedicated to Randy Roberts, a great and severely-missed musician & close friend, who we lost suddenly this November. Thank you for being there, Trav, we truely appreciate your work in learning those songs in two weeks, and letting it all out on stage with us, as the only tribute we know how to do, and the most meaningful for us. For all of you out there who were not able to attend the show, those tracks are up at thethirteenthhour.com. 2007 saw Drummer Brendan Leeigh joining forces with the Rockett Drum Works team as an endorsed artist, to compliment his existing deal with Vater drumsticks. We're all very excited to have this going for us, and equally as excited to see his new kit that is being worked on as we speak. Yes, we are true gear whores. Speaking of gear, this year also marked the official turn to Carvin Guitars by Lead Guitarist Andy Oliphant, joining Rhythm Guitarist / Vocalist Kevin Thomas, who had alreay made that decision. Both now rock fully custom DC727, 7 string guitars. Thomas & Oliphant also exclusively use Line 6 amplification. We look forward to seeing all of our respective gear companies this January, at the 2008 Winter NAMM show in Anaheim, courtesy of Rikki Rockett & Rockett Drum Works. 2008 should be an active one for us, which we are eager to meet head on! Pass around the word that a permanent bass player is needed, but we are considering just going forward with a temp to continue doing what we do best, and that's rocking the fuck out of every stage we step foot on. With some much needed rehersal after the holidays, we will be up and running in the live respect once again. Expect to see us out and about in Hollywood starting in January, not only playing shows, but just hanging out and being with our friends and fans. If you are in the area, stop by Howl at the Moon on Citywalk, you just might see us there most weeks! So as 2007 winds to an end, here is a huge "THANK YOU!" to everyone who has supported us, come to see us live, and downloaded the album. This ride is just getting started! Much love, The Thirteenth Hour 12.24.07 - Randy Roberts memorial show audio We had a short 20 minute set for the memorial show on 12.08.07. After almost a year being away from the stage, and only 2 weeks to prepare for the show... well it ain't perfect, it's metal, and we're proud as hell to have had the opportunity to play that show and share it with the world now. Check it out: 1. Collapse 12.18.07 - Randy Roberts memorial show pictures Check out the live pics section for 14 new shots of us at the memorial show for our friend Randy Roberts, from 12.08.07 Many thanks to our buddy Travis Squire for filling in on bass, which allowed us to play this very important show! 11.19.07 - Goodbye to a dear friend, Randy Roberts The news of Randy's death hit everyone unexpectedly yesterday afternoon, and we are all dealing with it in our own ways. On behalf of The Thirteenth Hour, I wanted to take a moment to say how much we will all miss him. He was a great and close friend to us all, and he unendingly supported us from the very beginning, hell, before the beginning. His friendship and kind words to what had to be my painfully bad playing to such an accomplished musician when I first started learning my instrument, will never be forgotten. His excitement when we finally hit our stride with the realization of TTH and our subsequent first shows, was an inspiration all in it's self. He was so much a part of us all, and we were looking forward to making him a larger part in this band, taking him with us when we get on the road as our tech. But for now, please take the time to reflect on the happiness of what was, instead of the pain of what will never be. As the most optimistic and openly happy person I've ever met in my life, I know Randy would have wanted that. Randy, we love you. -Andy 08.25.07 - "Echoes of Life" international online release! Our debut album "Echoes of Life" (featuring the single "When the Freaks Come to Feed") is now available online through some of the world's largest online music stores! After a slight delay, having been pushed back from it's intended release date of Friday the Thirteenth of this past July, it is now for sale, track by track or in it's entirety, at the following locations: iTunes.com More locations coming soon! 07.28.07 - Album review by the editor of JAWBM Magazine! We are very proud to share with you, our full album review of "Echoes of Life" written by A. Toole, the editor-in-cheif of JAWBM Magazine. Go to our "Bio / Info" section, and look at our press releases (or click here)... and put your good reading monacle in, the dude's a bit wordy. 06.02.07 - Pre-production for new record, video postings We are officially on the job, working on material for the next TTH album! We will keep you up to date through every step, from writing & rehearsing to recording & release. Stay tuned, news will be posted both here and on MySpace. Also, search The Thirteenth Hour on You Tube!
05.27.07 - Official statement: The Thirteenth Hour has parted ways with bassist Michael Jaye, after his decision to focus on family. At this time we are moving forward, looking for a bassist to join our family and work towards professional goals & persuits, in keeping with the image and talent of The Thirteenth Hour. If you are a pro-minded bassist, with groove,
chops, gear & attitude, and are ready to hit the stage
immediately in Hollywood, email tth@thethirteenthhour.com.
04.24.07 - Artist endorsment Brendan is happy to announce his artist endorsment from Rockett Drum Works (formerly SoCal Drum Works), by Rikki Rockett of Poison! He has a new kit on the way, and it's going to be awesome. Check out their website for company details, and keep an eye on the gallery to see some of the killer drums they are making.
04.24.07 - Bio update We've updated Brendan's bio with the new drum deal he has with SoCal Drum Works, by Rikki Rockett of Poison, and his new email address: brendanleeigh@hotmail.com. More specific info on SoCal Drum Works will be posted soon! 04.21.07 - "Echoes of Life" available online! This July, on Friday the 13th, our debut album "Echoes of Life" will be available for purchase on several major online distribution sources! The list includes: iTunes International This is just a small taste of things that are coming up for this band, keep an eye on us here or on MySpace.com/thethirteenthhour, other news is soon to follow! 04.14.07 - Back in action... again! Seems like around every corner lies the next obstacle for TTH. We've been dealing with neighbors calling the fuzz on us for the last year or so, and we had to switch to low-volume practices just to keep our chops up enough for shows. Brendan would bust out his electric kit, and all the guitars would stay at talking volume... it kept our chops up, but lost all the fun. It turned rehersal into work, just having to show up to go through the motions. We decided this had to change. We needed Brendan on real drums. We needed to hear The Thirteenth Hour how we were meant to be heard if we were ever going to get the fire back, get truely stage polished again, and write some new material for the next record. After a 3 month break, our new rehersal space is finally ready. Equipped with a full in-ear monitor set up, we can get it on at whatever volumes we feel like, whenever we feel like, and all the neighbors will ever hear is the drums (which is not a problem with them, thank fucking god). So onward we plow, into this year preparing to light the fire under the ass of metal that we have been talking about for so long now. New instruments are on the way, new audio and video is on the way, T-shirts and other merchandise is on the way. Brendan is finalizing his new drum deal as I type, and we will be announcing that in the VERY near future right here on TTH.com. Our long-time friend Cliff, who has worked with Creed and Evanescence, has agreed to help us out with promotion and show booking. We will be hitting Hollywood with everything we have, along with Napster, iTunes, You Tube, and MySpace. Look out. 12.25.06 - New Year, next show! Merry Christmas, yule, time to drink, whatever the hell it is you celebrate, to all the Freaks! Our first show of the new year is coming up, Saturday January 6th @ Schooners. This might be the last show we play there for a little while, we're going to concentrate on other areas for once, so don't miss this one. Plus, we'll be doing a song with James Kottak from the Scorpions!
08.16.06 Giant picture update! Check out the pics section for the latest look at us ugly bastards. This has been a huge update, with over 60 new pictures (the ones at the top are the newest, and let all those thumbnails load first or you won't see everything)!

Here's a gigantic HELL YEAH to our boys in Shroud (no pun intended really), you guys are always a blast to come out and party with.

Keep an eye out, this show kicked a ton of things into action, so we're going to start rolling soon! We'll see all of you at the next show! 03.23.06 - RANT!

New rant coming soon from Brendan, lots more pictures, all kinds a shit. Apologies to our awesome street team for not giving you anything to do. We're trying to get some promo materials together, free demo CDs and fliers at the very least, we just haven't been able to yet. Don't give up on us, you will get some cool shit to hand out to whoever you can get interested in us. If you haven't had your TTH live fix in a while (and we know you haven't), you're in for one hell of a show... check this out:

Limited run of 200 signed and numbered copies will be sold first. Limited release is just what it sounds like: LIMITED! If they're sold out before you get to them, that's it, they're sold. Of course if they are sold out you will still be sent a normal CD, it just won't be the limited signed and numbered one. We're working on getting a pay pal account, but for now send check or money order (made out to Andy Oliphant) to: The Thirteenth Hour Mail order price is $13 (you should have known!), that's already including shipping, and if you're local and know where to find us it's $10.

We're working on more shows right now, as always, you'll hear it first right here. Also, I know everyone wants to know what the hell is going on with the record, given that it's already April and no word yet. Unfortunately there's not much we can tell you right now. Top secret, need-to-know-basis and all that... Although we can say that Echoes of Life is 100% done and in our hands, artwork and everything, just waiting to be pressed... but we're taking some time, delaying the release... read into that what you will, we can say no more... 03.07.05 Lots of stuff going on in the world of TTH recently... First of all we're very happy to debut the title track of our upcoming album "Echoes of Life" right here on tth.com! Download this, crank it on your system and let us know what you think. We also have a show coming up that should be very cool. It's at Mr. Ques in Lancaster on 04.08.05 at 8:45pm. We'll be playing with some killer bands including Prod and Warhead, so be sure to check that out. Warmup for the record release show! Finally we'd like to announce that The Thirteenth Hour is now proudly using Line 6 amps! Mike is rocking the Bass PODxt Pro, and Andy and Kev are both using the PODxt Pro. We're very excited about the tones we're getting, and can't wait to get them out on the stage to show off. 12.17.04 Finally! The record is mastered! We have a few edits to do still, but we've now heard the final recorded version of most of our songs. In a drunken bout of celebration, we managed to burn some copies, and we proudly bring you VICIOUS! The title track "Echoes of Life" will be up soon, right here on thethirteenthhour.com! You know what this means, we're well on track for an early 2005 true release of our debut album! See you at the release party!!! 12.06.04 We've created a new page on MySpace.com for you all to keep in touch with us. Check it out at myspace.com/thethirteenthhour. Join our friends list and help us create a new community there! We will keep everyone updated on shows there as well as our normal mailing list, and Andy will be keeping a running blog on band news, which is linked to from there. Let us know what you think! 11.07.04 - Another show update! Oh yeah, regardless of how much physical shit we put ourselves through on stage, we can never seem to wait to do it again! The next victims will be everyone in the crowd at Schooners in Lancaster on Sunday 11.14.04. The show starts early, but we hit the stage at 10:30pm. I know you've all heard the commercials on 100.1 The Edge about the Block Shop's "Rock to Block" competition on Sundays at Schooners. Here's the deal - We'll be playing along with our good friends in the AV's funk-ing-est band, whatever they happen to be calling themselves at the moment. We're not part of the competition though, this is a show of it's own right after the battle of the bands. We played the last Block Shop fling, we're not in the fight for a slot in the next one although we still may be there! Once again - FREE DEMO CD's! As usual, email us if you need any more info on the show, or are interested in helping out with the Street Team. We're having guestbook issues, so aparently that's not an option, but you can always come up to us at the show and let us know what you think... about anything! (Except that situation with the herd of albino buffalo, the judge said we're not allowed to talk about that...) 10.11.04 - Halloween Show Update! After we got off stage on the 8th, the promoter (Heart Attack Promotions) invited us to play the Halloween show at El Dorado in Lancaster on 10.29.04 (the Friday before Halloween), which was already packed full of bands. Time slots are not finalized yet, but we managed to snag a slot somewhere around 9 or 10pm. The show starts at 7pm, and cover is $7 at the door. There are supposed to be 11 bands playing, so this is well worth your money. As usual, we'll be giving out FREE demo CDs after our set, and we'll bring more than we did last show so there will be plenty to go around. Email us with band costume suggestions! Think of themes that require four people! Anything but KISS! 10.10.04 - Thanks again everyone for coming out to see us Friday! A bunch of pictures from that show are up in the live pics secion (thanks to Patricia for taking some long over-due pics!). We have another show booked already (actually it was booked immediately after our show on Friday), and we'll fill you guys in as soon as we get the set time confirmed. Get ready to break out the scary shit and show yourselves for the 'Freaks' you (and we) are! 10.09.04 - Everyone, thanks for coming out to see us last night! We had a blast, and got some cool pictures that I'll put on the site tomorrow. You guys are awesome! 10.04.04 - Show Update! Sorry for the short notice! We'll be thrashing the El Dorado stage once again this Friday, October 8th. Doors open at 7pm and TTH hits the stage at 10pm (slightly better slot than last time). The cover is 7 bucks at the door, and if you don't know where the place is at already the address is 44275 Division Street, Lancaster CA. We'll have 2 or 3 song demos at the show for FREE so come check that out... and I promise I'll wear a shirt this time. Really. Also, take notice of the new email address (yes, again). Good ol' Mikey switched providers so the sbcglobal.net address is dead 'n gone. It's now thethirteenthhour@adelphia.net 08.23.04 - Show Update! What's up Freaks, I told you we'd be setting up some shows soon! This Saturday (08.28.04) we'll make a return to El Dorado in Lancaster with 6 other AV metal bands (including our bros from Scission and Prod). Doors open at 7pm and we hit the stage at midnight (if that ain't a metal start time I don't know what is!). We haven't quite had a chance to get the demo CDs put together yet, but you'll be seeing those soon. Until then, check out "When the Freaks Come to Feed" in our multimedia section if you haven't already, and keep telling everyone you know about this website and that song! 08.04.04 Freaks, the time is almost here! Last Saturday we received a test copy of the upcoming 'Echoes of Life' album to note any changes that have to be made for the final mix. It's sounding amazing, and it's great having an engineer who has such a similar vision for our music as we do, that he can get it this close to perfect without our input. Select few people have heard previews of a song or two off the album, and you can see one of our long-time fan's comments about it in the guestbook. Most likely 'Collapse' will be the next song to hit the website, so keep an ear out for that in the next couple weeks. Those of you on the mailing list, your inbox will shortly be getting emails from us again. We're going to be booking shows to get out there in your faces much more often than in the past, and we'll have 3 song demos of the record available at the shows as well. Those of you not on the mailing list... Get on it! 06.04.04 Freaks, the last two shows went great, and we thank you all for being the amazing people that you are and coming out and having a good fucking time with us. We'll let you know ASAP as soon as we can announce more shows, and you know you'll hear it here first... well, here and from our mailing list... which is at the bottom of the page... Sign it... As always, check out Brendan's latest rant, it was just updated and is full of very serious factual TTH events and commentary/history. And keep downloading 'Freaks' and spreading it around. All you metal fans still in school have the perfect opportunity to be spreading this shit like wildfire, get it out there! That contest is still on, by the way... something about 'XIII' and back hair... figure it out... 05.09.04 - New show dates! We have two shows coming up at the end of this month... 05.22.04 we are playing at the Block Jam 2, an X-Games style all-day-long event, with pro BMX riders on a full street course and 12 live bands. The Thirteenth Hour hits the stage last at 9:00pm. Address is 42217 12th St West in Lancaster, CA (check out the link above for more info). This is a free show! On 05.30.04 (the day before Memorial Day) we return to the Schooner's stage to raise some hell. We've put together a killer show consisting of 4 bands: Goodfella, Scission, TTH, and 60 Cycle Hum. The show starts at 6:00pm, tickets are $10 at the door and discount tickets are available from the band. This show will be our first 'real' show in a while, being indoors with full lights and sound, so we're excited as hell. We hope you can all make it out to see what promises to be a furious night of loud music! As always - keep downloading 'When the Freaks Come to Feed' (under the multimedia tab), and keep sharing it with your computerless friends or those who are too damn lazy to get it themselves! Burn the bitch onto CDR's and get it out there, we're not Metallica, we won't sue you! 03.01.04 - You can hear When the Freaks Come to Feed on rotation at http://www.thunderradio.net on Sundays from 11pm to 3am CST and Monday nights from 1am to 3am CST. Be sure to tune in towards the beginning of the show! 02.28.04 - When the Freaks Come to Feed! Check out our audio section (under the Multimedia tab), we've posted the first single off our our upcoming album 'Echoes of Life.' Again, we can't thank John Blanchard and Gary StClair enough for their efforts on our behalf. Much love, and thank you for kicking this thing out thus far! Stay tuned to this site, because this is just the beginning. PLUS... We have our first post-recording show booked at Club DI (in the Desert Inn) in Lancaster, at 10:30pm on March 12th. We'll be playing all kinds of new shit, so if you want an album preview, come hang out with us, get crazy, and listen to some good fucking metal. 02.06.04 - New website... again! Yes, we're never happy with 'good enough' so here's version 13.864, or there abouts. This version of the site will be easier to navigate and find every piece of info you need, without having to wade through every page. It's all right here on the front, including (obviously) the most up to date news, and Brendan's now infamous Rants column. We have some audio up and running again, and we will have live video clips soon, as well as that T-shirt we promised. So check out the links at the top, and take a look at all the stuff you could never find before. Above all, enjoy the new site! 09.29.03 - Echoes of Life tentative track list:
08.02.03 - Fixed our javascript issues, the site works as it was intended now. 07.31.03 - Check it out, check it out... New site! Also keep an eye out for a brand new T-shirt, and our debut album 'Echoes of Life' coming this winter! 07.27.03 - Quick update on the website... As you can see, we've finally moved to a no-ad server (many thanks to Scott from 665.org!) and now the only section of our site left with ads is the guestbook. We will be unveiling a brand new kickass site design (to coincide with the release of our debut album, tentatively titled 'Echoes of Life') with TONS of updates, including a new pictures and a great ad free guestbook! We had a photo shoot for the album/website on 07.26.03, and you'll be able to see the results of that right here in the near future. 05.12.03 - Holy crap, it's about time!
TTH has a show booked! We are going to rock the fuck out of
El Dorado in Lancaster, CA on 06.21.03 at 9:00pm (that's a Saturday).
This is a brand new stage for us, so help us break it in, and
tear it down! We'll be playing some new material, and look forward
to thrashing it out for all of you. See ya there! 08.20.02 - Welcome to the brand new home of The Thirteenth Hour!! As you wander around be sure not to trip on our over abundance of information... ha ha ha. Much more will be added to this site in the near future, be patient... The Thirteenth Hour lasts forever...
