			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Brooklyn based singer songwriter Kevin Devine has signed to Razor &amp; Tie Records.</p>
<p>New Album &#8220;Between The Concrete and Clouds&#8221; To Be Released On September 13TH, 2011</p>
<p><a href="http://meviomusic.mevio.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/274.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-5021" title="274" src="http://meviomusic.mevio.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/274-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>His new full length album, Between the Concrete &amp; Clouds, will be released September 13, 2011 via Razor &amp; Tie / Favorite Gentlemen.  Devine will head out this fall on a headlining tour with The Features as direct support on its first leg.  The tour will kick off on September 6th in Pittsburgh, PA at Club AE and make stops nationwide, concluding in Upland, CA at The Wire.</p>

<p><strong>mp3</strong>: <a href="http://razorandtiepublicity.com/kevindevine/concreteandclouds.mp3" target="_blank"><strong>Between The Concrete and Clouds</strong></a></p>
<p>According to his press release:</p>
<p>Between The Concrete &amp; Clouds is a record full of firsts for Devine, both sonically and technically.  Perhaps best known for his solo acoustic musings, this is the first record he&#8217;s made that is fully backed by a band.  After settling back home in Brooklyn after being on tour for most of 2009 and &#8217;10, Devine spent time in his rehearsal space playing around with ideas on his own, bringing shape to the songs by recording them as acoustic demos, something he hasn&#8217;t done since high school.<br />
Produced by longtime collaborator Chris Bracco and mixed by Rob Schnapf (Beck, Elliott Smith, Dr. Dog), Between the Concrete &amp; Clouds was recorded in 10 days over a span of a month.  The 10 track album features musicians Brian Bonz (keyboard), Chris Bracco (bass, keyboard), Mike Fadem (drums, percussion), Russell Smith (electric guitar), and Mike Strandberg (guitar, mandolin).  This is the first recording Devine&#8217;s done with his version of this band, and it had an inspired impact on the final product.<br />
&#8220;The combination of Chris and Rob on this record kind of marries the best aspects of everything I&#8217;ve tried to do over the past ten years,&#8221; said Kevin.  &#8220;I tried to explore a bit musically and make an album that still has a lot to chew on, but serves it with a scoop of ice cream,&#8221; said Kevin.  &#8220;I took the lyrical density of what I typically write &#8211; which are not-simple stories about not-simple people, or what I feel life is most accurately like &#8211; but give them more of a traditional pop structure.&#8221;<br />
Devine has received numerous accolades from press and fans alike over the span of his nine year career.  His discography includes several EPs and live albums, as well as past full-lengths Circle Gets the Square (2002), Make the Clocks Move (2003), Split The Country, Split The Street (2005), Put Your Ghost to Rest (2006), Brother&#8217;s Blood (2009), and Bad Books (2010), a side project Kevin worked on with Andy Hull and other members of Manchester Orchestra.  Kevin has played with top artists including Bright Eyes, Manchester Orchestra, Okkervill River, Earlimart, and many more, and has performed at the following festivals: Coachella 2010, Bonnaroo 2010, Bamboozle 2010, Lollapalooza 2009, Austin City Limits 2007, and Soundwave 2008 (Australia).</p>

<p>&#8220;Before We&#8217;re Gone&#8221; represents the very exciting and new sonic territory that Pigeon John explores throughout Dragon Slayer. Dragon Slayer houses the signature Pigeon John humor and witty rhymes, with a bit more rock and pop presence. With the aid of General Elektriks&#8217; Hervé Salters, Pigeon John produced the whole record, including, for the first time, recording and chopping up his own instrumentation rather than just flipping samples and banging on an MPC. Quannum Projects is set to release Pigeon John&#8217;s new album Dragon Slayer on October 12, 2010, the follow up to critically acclaimed Pigeon John&#8230;And The Summertime Pool Party.</p>
<p>Pigeon John kicks off his national tour with DJ Abilities on September 30th.  DJ Abilities will be performing his own set as well as mashing it up on stage as Pigeon John&#8217;s DJ. Experience the greatness live&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Buckcherry&#8217;s fifth studio album, ALL NIGHT LONG, their first since the band&#8217;s move back to Top Independent Rock label Eleven Seven Music, has debuted at #10 on the Top Billboard Top 200 Album chart and was the #1 Rock debut.  ALL NIGHT LONG is winning rave reviews from fans and critics alike&#8230;The New York Post called the album &#8220;A fun rock n&#8217; roll tribute to hedonism&#8221;, while Classic Rock said, &#8220;It&#8217;s about a band playing to its instincts and leaving you with the promise that the winning streak ain&#8217;t no fluke.&#8221;  Kerrang added, &#8220;The party is back on&#8221; and Spin dubbed Buckcherry, &#8220;Fist-pumping anthem-makers.&#8221;</p>
<p>The band continues their Top 10 success worldwide as they debuted at #7 on the overall chart in Canada (their highest chart position to date there) and scored their first Top 10 chart positions in the UK at #6 on the Independent Albums and #5 on the Rock and Metal charts, respectively.</p>
<p>The band will be on Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight on ABC at 12:05am ET/PT</p>

<p>About the band:<br />
Since dropping their debut full-length, 2003’s Turn It Around, COMEBACK KID has been an undeniable staple of the hardcore community. Each subsequent release has built upon the foundation of its predecessor while continually experimenting with and incorporating new musical elements from beyond the confines of modern hardcore. Five seconds into the band’s latest release, Symptoms + Cures, though, it’s made clear that this time around, COMEBACK KID has pushed their output to a new plateau. Originally formed in 2000 by members of Winnipeg, Canada’s underground music scene, COMEBACK KID has amassed a catalog of four full-length international releases along with a live CD/DVD. Says vocalist Andrew Neufeld about the band’s origins: “We wanted to keep the intensity from our other bands or those we looked up to at the time, but also took influence from ‘90s skate punk and more melodic acts.” He continues: “We wanted the music to be heavy, but the vocals were meant to incorporate a bit more melody than was found in traditional hardcore. Still, I don’t think we knew how far we could go with it at the time.” The band’s sophomore effort, 2005’s Wake The Dead, affirmed their position atop the heap of modern hardcore bands; however, when writing commenced for 2007’s Broadcasting…, vocalist and founding member Scott Wade announced his departure from the group, finding Neufeld abandoning his axe to take over vocal duties. But Broadcasting… didn’t miss a beat. With Neufeld more than capably filling Wade’s shoes, CBK delivered a powerful record that was undeniably COMEBACK KID while incorporating further-developed musical ideas and a more colorful vocal performance. Having delivered their pure and passionate brand of hardcore to fans around the world since 2002, COMEBACK KID released a live CD/DVD package dubbed Through The Noise in 2008. On top of accurately relaying the intensity and attitude of a CBK performance through a 17-song set list comprised of favorites from the band’s three previous releases, it also included an hour-long documentary entitled Our Distance that shared the band’s story to date. Since then, the band has dominated stages on several continents and worked on an array of other projects, musical or otherwise, all while composing the fourth COMEBACK KID record. Officially dropping August 31st, 2010, Symptoms + Cures is the latest offering from the lineup currently consisting of Neufeld on vocals, founding members Kyle Profeta on drums and Jeremy Hiebert on guitar, as well as guitarist Casey Hjelmberg and bassist Matt Keil. The album is firmly rooted in the brand of hardcore that its three predecessors helped established, yet incorporates more musical layers and vocal variance than we’ve heard from the band thus far. “We really found our mesh with Andrew singing,” says Profeta about the effort. “Our last album was more of a ‘feeler.’ We were just getting in the mode of Andrew becoming our front man. With Symptoms + Cures, we’ve really found our sound with him and we’re all really excited about it.” Trademark elements of the band’s sound are abundant on Symptoms + Cures – gang vocals, half-time bridges, and tastefully-placed breakdowns among them. However, the record also features a more dynamic vocal performance than we’ve previously heard, weaving a much harsher and urgent vocal delivery with sing-able passages, not to mention new musical expansions that stray from the straight-up simplicity of hardcore. Still, these new elements only serve to enhance, not overpower, the core of COMEBACK KID’s sound – and this is assuredly a COMEBACK KID album. Once the record’s been delivered to the masses, COMEBACK KID will embark on a world tour, hitting North America, Europe, Asia, and South America and sharing stages with acts like Madball, Sick Of It All, Four Year Strong, A Wilhelm Scream, Parkway Drive, Bleeding Through, and others. Says Neufeld: “It’ll be nice playing with some new bands as well as some of our hardcore heroes – bands we all really respect.” While fans will undoubtedly find much to embrace in Symptoms + Cures, it’s notable that the band members themselves believe this to be the pinnacle of their cumulative output. “It’s a good feeling that despite how long we’ve been doing this, we can still get so collectively excited about our music,” shares Neufeld. “We love doing this. There’s no better feeling for any of us than being in a room, losing our minds, and watching others lose their minds to the music.”</p>

<p>The group has been touring the United States since the release of their latest album, “Lost Souls Like Us,” was released on March 2, 2010.  “Lost Souls Like Us” debuted on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart at #15, the Billboard Indie Albums Chart at #50 and at #76 on the Billboard Current Digital Albums Chart.  On iTunes, the album hit #5 on the Rock Chart and was Top 30 on iTunes in overall sales week of release.  Since the release of the album, the band has been touring as a four-piece featuring founding group members Benjy Davis and Mic Capdevielle and two touring musicians who round out the line-up.  Their summer and early fall dates see them visiting the East, South, and Midwest, and include shows with labelmates Sister Hazel and Ingram Hill, as well as a show with Shooter Jennings and Corey Smith.  (See list of tour dates below.)</p>

<p>Benjy Davis Project has toured extensively in the South, including seven performances at New Orleans’ annual Jazz Fest, Voodoo Fest, and countless college performances, as well as jaunts with Sister Hazel, Robert Randolph, Buckwheat Zydeco, and many others.  2008 and 2009 saw them heading further afield on a touring circuit that now incorporates the entire country.</p>

<div class="topspin-widget topspin-widget-single-track-player-widget">
<br />
The troubled son of a hairdresser and a “teacher who lived many lives” (semi-pro football, massage therapy, film maker and other things we’ll tell you about when you’re older), George was born in the Dominican Republic and spent his formative years in Florida. Not in a happening spot like Miami, though. Try an island that happened to be the winter home base of the Ringling Brothers’ Circus and palm tree-flanked old people.</p>
<p>If you think that’s strange? You don’t know the half of it. And neither does George, although he’s trying to remember; trying to piece the sepia-toned scenes together along with a debut album that’s all about letting go. Or is it? Like an art-house double feature that leaves you wondering what the hell just happened in the best way possible, Forget tells a spellbinding story without spelling everything out.</p>
<p>Forget isn’t tethered to any trends or specific genre, either. Instead, it seems almost to be hovering above the landscape of decades gone past; checking in at rest stops with it&#8217;s wheels pointed directly toward the future. So don’t be surprised to hear things abruptly shift from synth-swept soundscapes (“I Can’t Wait,” “Castles In the Snow”) to glimmers of gossamer dance music (“For Now,” “Shooting Holes At the Moon”) or full-on power balladry (“Slow”).</p>
<p>And who is that sitting next to George’s director’s chair?  Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear in the role of producer, working closely with Twin Shadow, fine-tuning Forget’s special effects while maintaining the memory-wracked mood that George spent months perfecting in his Brooklyn apartment. Brooklyn based label Terrible Records will be taking Twin Shadow&#8217;s Forget on as their very first LP release.</p>
<p>“It’s bedroom recorded music, but it’s been done with the same attention as many classic B-movies,” he says. “It’s not like a slapdash home video, though; it’s someone operating with very little at 100-percent of their ability.”</p>
<p>In other words, Forget is like The Seventh Seal filtered through the drive-in feel of Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!. Meaning: lots of tight shots, careful lighting, and a lingering sense that something’s not quite right—a film adaptation of George’s life that’s essentially a 40-minute waking dream.</p>

<p>Here’s a line you don’t hear very often: “The puppet world blows my mind.”</p>
<p>We’re not talking about the next generation of Jim Hensons here, either. We’re referring to Joemca’s ongoing relationship with Inkfish, an experimental puppetry troupe that explores the human condition like John Cusack’s string-pulling character in Being John Malkovich. And by exploring the human condition, we mean everything from a “fantasy of Einstein taking back the [atom] bomb” (The Brain) to a moody meditation on war-torn wives (Three Good Wives), with Joemca’s rich, tightly-woven soundscapes scampering across every last scene.</p>
<p>Kinda like how the L.A. native/New York transplant spent the last year coloring outside the lines of his long-awaited debut LP, 16 Devils. Despite having roots that reach as far back as 2006, the album feels like one seamless collection of love songs that are a little off, a little more real than one verse/chorus, verse/chorus exercise after another. Which makes sense when you think about it. After all, Joemca’s self-titled EP was co-produced by Yoko Ono’s longtime collaborator, Rob Stevens, earning a stack of press clippings for its “tastefully morbid tales of hummable melodrama” (Spin) and “words [that] are as heady as the music itself” (All Music Guide). Or as The Village Voice put it, “Hearing [Joemca] is like taking a walk through a scattered mind, yet it all somehow makes sense.”</p>
<p>“My puppet show stuff is a lot more abstract and atmospheric,” explains Joemca, “but my solo songs are more like Sam Cooke—deceptively simple.”</p>
<p>That’s immediately clear if you listen closely, as “Big Dreams” raises the curtain with crushed beats and groove-locked hooks. Elsewhere, “Tip Toe” is haunted by phantasmagoric harmonies; “Sleeping Pattern” is pelted by laser-like synths and clouded keys; and “Control Yourself” is cut with restless rhythms that are a few BPMs away from being a drum ’n’ bass single. So while Joemca insists he’s been influenced by Al Green as of late, his background in classical composition (Mozart, Chopin) and cutting-edge electronic music (Oval, Plaid) also seeps into 16 Devils’ shape-shifting songs. That, and Joemca’s days of studying film in college.</p>
<p>“I was more interested in being an auteur than anything else,” he says, “so I’d write and direct all my own movies. No one would understand any of it, but they made perfect sense to me.”</p>
<p>Joemca’s records are much more universal—the perfect balance between artiness and accessibility. And he’s not about to stop making them, either. Another set of songs is already in its early stages, although Joemca insists, “If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work. I like when things aren’t spelled out for anyone, you know?”</p>

<p>On September 14th, 2010 <a href="http://www.cloudcult.com/" target="_blank">Cloud Cult</a> will be releasing Light Chasers on Earthology Records.  Their eighth studio album in the last 15 years (not including Lost Songs from Lost Years), this latest full-length is their most epic and reflects a band that has explored all that life has to offer ranging from lost love to death to sorrow to healing to birth.  The first song released from the new album was “Running With the Wolves,” which came out digitally in April as part of a special Earth Day EP and instantly found fans at The Current in Minneapolis and KEXP.</p>
<p>Light Chasers – is the band’s first new full-length studio album since Feel Good Ghosts (Tea-Partying Through Tornadoes) (April 2008).  Since 1995, Cloud Cult has been quietly crafting sprawling, cathartic albums.  Founder Craig Minowa wrote, recorded and released the first Cloud Cult album The Shade Project in 1995 using the closet of his small Minneapolis apartment as his recording studio.  Over the next 15 years Cloud Cult released Who Killed Puck (2000),  They Live on the Sun (2003), Aurora Borealis (2004), Advice from the Happy Hippopotamus (2005), The Meaning of 8 (2007), and Feel Good Ghosts (Tea-partying Through Tornadoes) (2008).  In addition, they released a documentary DVD No One Said It Would Be Easy on April 21st, 2009 and at the end of 2009 the band released a double-disc reissue of They Live on the Sun and Aurora Borealis as well as a limited re-release of Lost Songs from the Lost Years (2002).</p>
<p>Now with their new album Light Chasers done and set for release on September 14th, the band will be doing a handful of dates with a full US tour scheduled for this fall.</p>

<p><strong>“Diligence is the mother of good luck.”<br />
</strong>The<br />
quote above is from Benjamin Franklin and it’s great inspiration for<br />
the Melbourne band Rudely Interrupted. RI are one of Australia’s truly<br />
unique indie rock acts. 5 out of the 6 members share a range of both<br />
physical and intellectual differences but with a sound likened to Joy<br />
Division having a Gary Numan party while eating pitch perfect cookies,<br />
this band will challenge your thoughts and entertain your mind with<br />
their infectious hooks.<span id="more-2605"></span><br />
<strong><br />
Rudely Interrupte</strong>d<br />
whose music has been hailed by the critics as ‘some of the most<br />
energetic and genuine to emerge from the Australian rock ‘n’ roll<br />
