Stich

The Virus is here.

Hey. How’s it going? It’s been a while and in that time the former members of Stich have returned to bring you something awesome. Inoculate. That’s the new band name….but it’s more than just a new name. It’s new music. It’s new shows. It’s a completely new experience. Two years ago Douglas, Patrik and I decided to start a new project, Picking up two new members (Nikko and Paul) and creating new music that while having the same energy as Stich, is different in nature. It is more precise, it is more direct and it is to the point. We would like to invite you to check out our new music and stay updated with the new things we are doing. Please visit: www.inoculatemusic.com and download our music for free. Spread the virus.

Humble Beginnings

admin — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 20:07:42 +0000

If you read our last post, then you know Michael, Douglas, and I have chosen to no longer continue music under the moniker of Stich. We are forming a new 5 piece alternative metal project, and still searching for a bass player. If your interested, hit up altmetalproject.com.

Well ten years is a long time and during which, I personally, had some of the best moments of my life. Mike and I began playing music together when we were 11 years old, and almost 15 years later, we continue to do so. This band has been more then just music, it has been an almost tangible aspect of my life and I have a great appreciation for that. The members of this band are apart of my family, and I wouldn’t want it any other way.

Anyway, if you’re interested in seeing part of Stich’s humbled beginning, visit the Wayback Machine and search for “stich.tk”.

Stich No More.

After much discussion between the three of us, Patrik, Douglas, and I have decided to no longer go under the moniker of Stich. We’ve decided that the music that we have recently written, though still in the alternative metal genre, is of a different entity. It goes without saying that Kevin was a big part of Stich’s sound and identity and it makes sense to us to end Stich at the point of Kevin’s departure. That being said, as noted previously, the three of us will continue to perform and make music as a band. We’ve also included second guitarist Nikko Gallardo to the line up and are still looking for a bass player to fill in the final slot. As soon as we get a new identity we will inform you of the new websites to go to. For now if there is any dire news we will inform you through the normal outlets. All of us are very excited about the new music we have written and heavily believe that Stich fans will enjoy this new evolution of our musical sound. Thank you for being with us through this stage of our lives and we hope that you will continue to support us through this new venture. Without you Stich would not have been what it was. Here’s to ten years of awesome.

Here and now we start anew. Be ready for it because we will be.

Kevin’s Last Show

admin — Fri, 08 May 2009 16:32:22 +0000

Kevin’s last show will be next Saturday (May 16th) at the Spillway. Kevin is parting ways with Stich to pursue other passions in life, and we wish him nothing but the best. We are losing a huge piece of the puzzle, but as Stich has done for the past 8 years, we will persevere and move forward.

We will begin our search for the missing piece shortly, but first we want to have one last kick-ass show with Kevin. Though if you ,or someone you know is interested in trying out for the Bass position, please contact us directly at stich@stichmusic.com.

The Year of Stich

admin — Sat, 03 Jan 2009 20:01:34 +0000

We hope you all had a great holiday season. 2008 was a big year for Stich. We finally achieved a long time goal of ours, which was recording and releasing our debut album. We are now in a new era, and 2009 we’ll be a big part of it. Our goal now is to bring our music to the masses and will let nothing stand in our way. If you’ve been a Stich fan for any amount of time, then you know music is our life.

You may be thinking, “How are you making this happen”? Well, it starts by making our music easily accessible. We now have our album available online from several retailers including the increasingly popular Amazon mp3, which if you aren’t aware, sells DRM-free music downloads for an awesome price. Amazon mp3 also integrates very easily with both iTunes and Windows Media Player. Here is breakdown of all available online retailers (more to be added in the upcoming months).

95 Days…

admin — Sat, 09 Aug 2008 01:00:04 +0000

95 days is all that is left until we release our first, self-titled album; due out Nov. 11th, 2008. Its been a long time coming and it has been an even longer journey that we will never forget. Those that know us or have been with us for a while, know that creating an album has been our goal for a long time. I can now proudly say, “Our goal has been accomplished”. Getting to this point has not been easy, we’ve had to overcome many obstacles in our 8 years of existence. We’ve persevered though it all and it has resulted in 14 songs that give insight to who we are and what we are about. This album tells a tale, one that combines 8 years of music and memories. We hope you all will enjoy it as much as we do.

We realize we haven’t said much in the past two years. We decided to lay low and just concentrate on making our album. Its the one thing that has always been missing from our musical careers. Its like being a painter, but never finishing a piece. It made us feel incomplete without it.

Even with an album, we are nothing without you, our fans. Therefore, I believe I can speak for the band and apologize to everyone for the lack of communication. We hope you have not given up on us, but understand if you have; though we hope you can revive that feeling once again and continue to support us.

Now that our journey is complete, its time to bring down this town. We are now an unstoppable force, and it all begins Saturday, August 30th at Wyatt’s Torch. This will be your first chance to hear and see what we have in store. We will have new merch (mens and womens tee’s) for you to get your hands on and we will be giving out free promo cds, stickers, and other cool swag. Show starts at 9:00pm and the cover is $5. We hope to see you there, it will be nice to see our friends again… our moshipt victims.
