Burning Brides Set Release

(PR) Having played the major label game, released 2004's critically-acclaimed "Leave No Ashes," been caught up in label downsizing, and then walked away with their artistic integrity intact and a six-figure check in their pockets, BURNING BRIDES are back with a brand new album - but on their own terms. On April 24, "Hang Love" will be released on the independent Modart imprint with distribution through Caroline/EMI. Said Burning Brides' guitarist/vocalist Dimitri Coats, "We may be one of the few bands doing it right now, but this is the way the future is going to be. We own the masters, we dictate how and when we do things, we take the risks."

Modern Artists Management's Les Borsai, who manages Burning Brides and oversees the Modart imprint, presented the band with a business model in which they could retain control over how "Hang Love" was marketed, promoted, and sold, and yet reap the majority share of the profits. "Major label deals are no longer structured to develop artists," said Borsai, "and many bands get dropped after their first album, saddled with a huge debt to the label. This arrangement will allow the Brides to make music and make a living." Caroline's sales staff will pound both the digital and brick-and-mortar pavements, and the band will tour extensively.

The track listing for Burning Brides' "Hang Love" is as follows:
Ring Around the Rosary
San Diego
She Comes to Me
Waring Street
Your Nation Will Die
Unglued
Poor House
Feel No Shame
Hang Love
And I'm Free
