Hello everyone. First, a show update: We'll be playing at Sideffest 2008 in Helsinki. It's held at a secret location, so you'll have to do a little detective work to get the address, but it'll be worth it! See the Shows section for some info and the first clue (actually the only clue) you'll need to solve this mystery. 

The second piece of news is that the Ultraconservative Mathias Sings CDr we made with our friends Athletic Arms is now sold out...

More records, shows and other stuff coming, we think. Peace to all.

23.6.2008...................... We're very happy to announce that the new Verilöyly/Candy Cane/Navigations/Cahier split CDr has been released. And it's a beauty! There's some info regarding the record on the Records page of our site so please head over there to drink from the fountain of knowledge.

We're working on new songs and ideas, but more of that later as there's a summer going on and we must not miss it! All the best to you all.
4.5.2008....................... Our new EP Good Times End Times is out. This is a from-the-vaults kind of release as we've recorded the songs over a year ago. We feel that this EP marks the end of a certain era of our band. A new phase is beginning, and a change is taking place as those of you who have been to our shows lately may have heard. Life and music are completely intertwined and mirrored in each other. Changes in our lives will bring forth changes in the music and vice versa. Full of hope we travel...

Anyway, please buy our new EP now as we only made 50 of these. The songs still sound quite nice to us and now you can have them in a really beautiful package too.

And hey, if you're in Turku we have two great shows coming up this month. Check out the Shows section for details.

Also also! Our dear friend Marko's new label Rabbit Ilsn will release a four way split CDr with two songs each from Cahier, Candy Cane, Verilöyly and us. This will be an awesome record! Coming in June!
1.3.2008....................... We've made a new record with our friends Athletic Arms called Ultraconservative Mathias Sings. It's not a split record as members from both bands contribute on all tracks. An inspiring and beautiful experience. See the Records page for more details.

We have a new ep coming up in a few weeks as well. We call it Good Times End Times and it includes four songs we recorded about a year ago. If you've been to our shows in the last year or so you'll probably recognize at least a couple of these tunes. Updates about the record coming soon.
10.1.2008..................... Peace and love for the new year everyone!  

We've got some shows coming up. So if you want to come see us play check out the myspace page and the Shows section here for updated details. 
28.10.2007.................... Hey! We're playing a show in December! Check out the Shows page for details!

Now this may be hard to believe but we have actually updated the Links page. There are links there! And each of those links will take you to some of our lovely friends. Click 'em and see!   
19.6.2007.................... The ultimate summer soundtrack also known as the Candy Cane/Navigations split is out now! 2 songs from Candy Cane and 5 from us, all raced through in under 13 minutes. All of our songs are about bears. The material on the disc is pretty wide ranging, noisy and beautiful and probably a little surprising too. We made just a 100 of these so everyone interested should get their copy right now. You can get it either from us or CC, so get in touch.

More info on the Records page.
22.4.2007.................... Shows updated.

16.9.2006................... Hey everyone, long time no see! This time we've got some exciting news for all y'all. So read on.
 
First, we're honored and humbled to let you know that our version of "Ritz Dance" is on the magnificent Silkworm tribute record An Idiot to Not Appreciate Your Time: The Songs of Silkworm. This thing is a massive 2cd release with 29 beautiful versions of some of the greatest rock songs ever written. Other participating bands and artists include Heather Whinna & Steve Albini, The Kadane Brothers and .22 just to name a few. So it's an understament to say that we're in good company. (Oh, and by the way, Niko did a solo version of "Don't Make Plans This Friday" under the name Trestle Music and it's on the record as well.) An Idiot to Not Appreciate Your Time: The Songs of Silkworm was released by Genuflect Records, run by our hero, Isaac Turner of Kalamazoo, Michigan. Salut Ike, you're a beautiful man! Only 1000 copies were pressed and apparently they're going like hot cakes, so go here to order your copy before it's too late. Trust us, this is the one boat you don't want to miss. We'll be getting some extra copies of the record as well, so all you Finnish dorks can get them from us at our shows or by e-mailing us.
 
Now that's a lot of info, but there's more: Our song "Learning to Smoke" is on the compilation LP Hahmotushäiriö, out on Kissankusi Records. 49 minutes of punk, noise, improv and bad manners on a lovely slab o' black wax. It rocks, alright. Get you copy here. Many thanks to Raine of Kissankusi Records. You are a fine fellow.
15.3.2006................... Another show added. Yeah, that's right kids, we have two shows on the same day. Both in Turku.
3.2.2006..................... Things are once again happening at a glacial pace here in Navigationsland. We do have a couple of shows coming up, so check out the shows section. We are also trying to make this here site a bit more pleasing to the human (and animal) eye. There's a really nice review (in Finnish) of The Green Valley here.
8.11.2005................... Welcome friend, you have indeed come to the right place!

A lot of things going on here...

We've talked about a website for a long time and now we finally have one! Whoo! And the crowd goes wild!

Our first full length record has just come out. It's called The Green Valley and we're quite proud of it. The Green Valley consists of 8 songs and is about 36 minutes in length. You can listen to a couple of songs and find info on how to get a copy on the records page. The record is only available on vinyl (180 gram high quality vinyl, mind you), so if you don't have a turntable yet, here's your reason to get one.

If you'd like to write to us about something don't hesitate to use the e-mail address found on the contact page. We're friendly.

There are some shows in the works too, so keep checking the site for updates. And keep watching the skies!

Be safe.
