To start things off, here’s the Comp. 3 artwork done by the awesome Natty Peterkin of Cassus. Super nice dude, super talented.
As for the band list, that will be posted sometime this week. However, since you know that a dude from Cassus did the artwork *hint* *hint*…yeah, Cassus is going to be on the next comp.
This is going to be kewl.

Could People Possibly Make Love Without Me
My idols had a gaze in their eyes I can’t ever forget
Infatuated by your quick, sly wit
Terrified by anger, fear, and perpetual guilt
On summer nights where rose petals wilt
If you believe you’re worthy of love
You’ll find the love you’re worthy of
Leave your city, give up the ghost
I’ve misremembered regret, I’ve forgotten remorse
Rest your broken breathe on my sunken chest
When our hollow eyes tried to fast forward time
Half muttered cries, feelings convict crime
Is this what it’s like to feel truly innocent?
Null and void when black hearts commit
I’ve given up on submissiveness
I’ll feed on your failures, and force you to live with this
Is it worth having any sliver of hope?
When the idea is afloat, on the shores of white seas
That people could possibly make love without me
I’ll sail on, out of the past
And expose death as a cowardly mask
You’ll serve my heart on a blood stained platter
It eluded us then but that’s no matter
We’ll run faster, stretch our arms farther
“And one evening I’ll appear in the palm of your hand
Quiet and pure like a glass statuette
You will see me. Round about. There’ll be nothing left.”
