Middle Class Rut Debut Coming in October
. The album�s first single, �New Low,� is being serviced to radio later this month and a video is currently in the works. Middle Class Rut�s music artfully blurs the line between heavy and melodic, showcasing the band�s skill for raw, energized rock and roll that is equally complex and immediate. The record is enormous and rowdy, propelled by the duo�s ability to make heavy music tasteful and accessible. Opening number �Busy Bein� Born� represents the rest of the disc, setting a tone and pace for the impassioned tracks that follow. �It takes everything this band does and puts it into one song,� Lopez says. �It�s hard to do that. We�re able to capture the heavier and mellower side of our music in one song.� No Name No Color compiles 12 songs from a span of several years, showcasing a breadth of time without ever losing its clear impression of cohesion. A few tracks have appeared previously on the band�s three EPs, which they released in 2007, 2008 and 2009, but the album as a whole is a new construction that reveals a band with a unique creative process. The majority of the songs have been tested on the road during tours in the U.S. with Social Distortion, Them Crooked Vultures and Alice In Chains, and in Europe with The Bronx and �And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead. �I feel like the music we make needs to be heard,� Zack says. �Maybe everyone feels that way about their music, I don�t know. We struggled for a long time to find something that was us and as soon as we decided that we would do it ourselves everything clicked. Realizing we didn�t need anyone but ourselves to do this was important for this band. Now we want to get this out there and really get our own audience for our music.� Preview and Purchase Middle Class Rut CDs Middle Class Rut MP3 Downloads |
