In Truth recorded a demo and had a song released on the latest Only the Strong compilation from Victory Records. They enjoyed long walks on the beach, listening to Metallica, and they started an R & B side project called Silk Sheets. New Silk Sheets single “A.T.M” coming to a store near you soon!
Rise Against continues to rock you and Tony recorded the demo for these dudes.
