BraveWords.com has received the following:

Joel, Adam and Tim Parent, the 3 brothers that make up the powerhouse trio NINJASPY, announced today that they have signed with Zestone Records to release Pi Nature, their debut album.

Written by Ninjaspy, produced by Garth "GGGarth" Richardson and Ben Kaplan, and mixed by Bill Kennedy, Pi Nature is due for release on October 14th across Japan.

"People kept telling me we needed to go to Japan," says guitarist/ vocalist Joel Parent, "so I went there to do some martial arts training. I ended up meeting a ton of awesome, open-minded people. I heard bands like SIM doing ska and breakdowns, stuff that you would rarely hear in North America. I walked into record stores and actually found a ‘Mixture’ section on the shelves. On that trip I realized that we really belonged over there. Then I met a friend of a friend in Osaka, Tag from Zestone, and the world seemed a whole lot smaller.”

Ninjaspy's infectious first single, 'Evolution Of The Skid', was released in the spring of 2009. The single is taken from Pi Nature and won them a coveted spot on the Taste of Chaos Tour in Calgary, AB. See link below to watch the video for "Evolution of The Skid"
