Sparta gets new guiarist, record deal

So, in the wake of Paul Hinojos leaving to be a 'sound maniuplator' aka drug mule for The Mars Volta, fellow At The Drive-in castoffs Sparta was in need of a new guitar player.

Also, it seemed that they were released from Geffen Records. This may or may not have something to do with Geffen Records dissolving.

Anyways, it seems like they've solved both of these problems, as is explained by this press release.

FORMER DENALI/ENGINE DOWN LEADER KEELEY DAVIS NAMED NEW GUITARIST

thats what Sparta has to say about it. Very elucidating.

Cool, I suppose. Porcelain was good, but a bit of a let down, I think. Here's to new things.
