Now in 2007, Winnipeg-based hard-core rockers X-Status have been roaming the musical wastelands since 2000, Their repertoire is a collective compilation of years of lost songs and forgotten riffs that lingered in the back of their heads for over a decade. Re-created for today's ears X- STATUS will rock you with their soulful aggression and techno heaviness. Futuristic and inspirational sounds in an EFFORT to FREE ALL MINDS.

After 5 years and 4 studios X-Status has finally slated a released date for their debut CD/DVD, with a pre release of the album portion in June 2007 the all out CD and DVD package are to be re-released on September 1, 2007, the new package will contain 8 of the bands most Hard Rocking tunes, and a DVD with 2 full sets of multi camera live stage action along with 2 music videos.

Released on StrongFront Records, Arbor Records and EMI Music Canada the band is optimistic, "We worked with the best, we recorded on the best gear, we took all the steps necessary to ensure we had great Canadian product and we are behind it 100%" Jesse Green, Singer & Guitarist.

The band has been waiting along time to release their first works, and feel that they couldn't have done any better.
