| Lapush
Debut |
press release reports: St. Louis rockers LAPUSH
release their debut album someplace closer to here June 7th on 456 Enterprises
through Fontana Distribution / UMVD �For a new band committed to the "truth"
of music and the emotions it evokes there is no better decree�"There is
no façade�we mean what we say"� There is no better way to sum up
the band of hometown favorites from St. Louis, MO including singer/guitarist
Thom Donovan, drummer Brett Voelker, and bassist Kevin Bachmann who are
LAPUSH. Hailing from a city known for its hip-hop heroes, LAPUSH is making
their way onto the scene quietly and with a subtlety lost on most up-and-coming
rock bands. Having already drawn comparisons to British rockers Oasis,
Keane and The Verve both in their composition and passionate arrangements,
LAPUSH is a band of three local musicians who aren't trying to be anything
they're not.[see full story for a 5 song sampler]- Click

| Junior
Varsity Release Wide Eyed |
Victory Records reports: The Junior Varsity
has long been known for their dogged determination in the face of adversity
and it is finally paying off. Their Victory Record's debut, Wide Eyed,
will be in stores on July 12th and the band intends to tour non-stop to
celebrate. A pop record with pristine production and a pronounced prog
influence, Wide Eyed was produced by Matt Squire at SOMD! Studios in Bethesda,
Maryland. Their recording session was interrupted by several burglaries
of The Junior Varsity's vehicle and a trip to the U.K. with Straylight
Run that ran afoul of Byzantine immigration policies. "The last attempted
robbery was when some a**holes backed a U-Haul truck up to the studio door
and broke in at 1am with plans to ransack the place," remembers keyboard
player Nick, "luckily we defused the situation and they took off. It was
hard to keep out minds completely on our goal of making a great record
with stuff like this happening, but somehow nobody was really affected
by it. We understood that all we have is this band and making the album
was one of the most important things we've done in our lives."[see full
