DRUG CHURCH PAY HOMAGE TO ‘PAUL WALKER’ ON NEW STUDIO ALBUM

1Degenerate punk loners Drug Church have announced plans to release their debut, full-length album,Paul Walker, on July 23rd via No Sleep Records.  The guys have premiered the first new song, “Donny’s Woods,” today atAltPress.com.  The misled and ill informed can pre-order the new album from No Sleep Records now at nosleeprecords.com/paulwalker.

Listen to “Donny’s Woods” now at AltPress.com: http://bit.ly/10q1lkr
Consisting of Patrick Kindlon (End of A Year, Self Defense Family), Chris Villeneuve (drums), Nick Cogan (guitar), Cory Galusha (guitar) and Pat Wynne (bass), Drug Church is the sound garbage makes when thrown off a roof into the dumpster your dickhead boss rented for your underpaying contractor gig. Come back in a few weeks and steal the copper piping because there’s no other benefit to the job and you’re probably getting sick from asbestos, so to hell with it.
Borrowing heavily from bands like Seaweed and Quicksand, Drug Church released their debut, self-titled EP in July of 2012; the perfect record to listen to as you skate home from your night shift cleaning up puke in the bathroom of a Steak & Shake.  It even scored the band a spot on Alternative Press’ “100 Bands You Need To Know” list earlier this year!
2013 rolled around the guys took a break from delivering pizzas and entered the studio to record their first full-length, Paul Walker; surely named for their secret obsession with ‘Varsity Blues’ and ‘Eight Below.’  And the thought of letting these dudes wild again in the studio scared the shit out of No Sleep President, Chris Hansen; rightfully so!
“No Sleep offered us a bunch of money and suggested producers to record this LP with and we said, ‘Bro. You forgot the struggle, you forgot the streets,” Kindlon says. “We’re recording this as the coregods intended: Quick and nasty.’ So what’s what we did. Pushpit.”
Nonetheless, they guys somehow managed to crank out ten of the gnarliest tracks you’ll hear all year long, including the new song, “Donny’s Woods.”
“For everyone who ever thought about faking their own death, we present ‘Donny’s Woods’ a song about how quickly people will forget about your ass,” Kindlon tells AltPress.com.
One thing people won’t forget though is how awesome Paul Walker is…oh and the album is pretty good too!

Allison Weiss – Say What You Mean album review

PromoImageA true DIY artist, and a rising star on the national scene, Allison Weiss conveys the heartbreak and longing that only comes when you truly love someone.

Every track on her newest full-length, Say What You Mean, is a classic, full of the pop smarts and brilliant hooks that she is known for, without sacrificing any of the emotion and art that enriches the songs.
