Collide is featured in the latest issue of Beyond Fantasy Magazine. A magazine for the 21st century dreamer!!! Great magazine and stunning photos.

It's a very nice full color magazine printed on very nice paper...the way magazines should be. Our interview is four pages long, and contains some pretty funny moments...like why Statik would like to be a rat with wings, or why kaRIN wants an evil monkey.

Meanwhile, we've been a bit quiet lately, as we're busy in the studio, writing songs for a new Collide album.

We have uploaded a couple of videos to our YouTube page. They were done while we were filming our acoustic sessions for our "Like the Hunted" DVD in 2005. After we finished our songs, kaRIN, Roger, and Scott did a few impromptu jams with Statik filming and recording. This was one of our inspirations for our last album "These Eyes Before".

"Breathe" was filmed first, and the guitar parts in the video were used in the final album version of the song, and "Time" was filmed right after. The video we put up was the first and only take of it. They were both "off the cuff", there's some goofs, and they're not perfect, but we hope you like them!

We've put up a couple of new download items on our store. Each is only $4.99. One contains instrumental versions of all of the songs from "These Eyes Before", and one contains Acapella (vocal only) versions.

Each download contains a special "bonus" track. One has an Angelic Mix of Creep, and the other has an Orchestral Mix of Comfortably Numb.

Maybe you want to listen to kaRIN without any of Statik's noise getting in the way, maybe you want to sing along to the songs without kaRIN's vocals getting in the way? Either way, we have something here for you. Enjoy!!

We start 2010 with the greatest news. Collide is appearing on the cover of the 72 page U.K. magazine Nocturnal. It is the most Collide-filled magazine we have ever seen! Besides the cover, there's a four page interview, a two page piece on kaRIN's Saints & Sinners Clothing and Accessory line, and a review of "These Eyes Before". You also get a free downloadable compilation album, which includes our version of David Bowies's "Space Oddity".

We really must thank Steven Hurst for all of his efforts and writing to make this happen....wooo-hooooo!

To download the magazine, go here. It does require users to create a login (which is purely for their own stats, no strings attached). The cost for the issue is only about $1, which can be paid by paypal. Not a bad deal, considering you also get the 12-song album!

Collide is on the cover of The Mick. This is a very cool interview with Mick Mercer who is the world's leading writer on the goth and punk subcultures and their history. The interview goes into depth what went into the choosing of the songs on These Eyes Before.

Also, check out The Mick's holiday issue where a bunch of bands (including ourselves, and the members of SPC-ECO) list their favorite Christmas presents and tell ghost stories =)."

It's a free downloadable magazine. Check it out here
