Press Release

Bigraphy 2009 :

There’s a delicate balance between the intertwining worlds of artistry, entertainment and humor, but for dance-derived alternative rockers Family Force 5, it’s an ecstatic equilibrium that remarkably illustrates all three elements. With tongue firmly planted in cheek, the Atlanta-based five-some are just as likely to get the party started as they are to escort audiences into an alternate reality. Even so, the band never compromises album creativity, while simultaneously hearkening back to the days of massive spectacles on tour.

The group’s sophomore release, Dance Or Die, oozes with over-the-top illustrations, charging out of the gate with funky rhythms, percolating club grooves, undeniably infectious hooks and instantaneous sing-a-longs. Imagine an inventive evolution of the band’s eye-opening debut, Business Up Front, Party in the Back, blended with Prince getting down at a Daft Punk concert where Michael Jackson busts out the moonwalk in the center of the dance floor.

“Listening to Family Force 5 is like lighting a cluster of firecrackers in your mouth,” offers guitarist Derek Mount (known to fans as Chap Stique), recommending a spin of Dance Or Die over that daredevil antic. “This album provides a connection and an escape, and it's guaranteed to make your booty shake and your head bang. It's greasy, slimy and soupy, yet still very slick and shiny at the same time.”

Indeed, the disc is replete with rippling rhythms, assaulting electronics and a raucous rock ‘n roll underpinning, but beyond these sonic elements, there’s also an all-encompassing futuristic vibe. From the sci-fi synth textures of “Fever” to the thrash-tinged robotic rocker “Radiator” to the ultra contagious title track, consider this project to be the musical version of Mad Max meets 2001: A Space Odyssey.

“The last record was a straight-up party, but we always said the second would be sweaty rock n’ roll music,” stresses front-man/guitarist Solomon Olds (Soul Glow Activatur), who co-produced the project with Joe Baldridge (Beck, Jewel). “The album title and imagery transport the listener into a dire life-or-death situation. Each song unites that urgency with a danceable beat, so get to steppin,' or you'll be extinct.”

Fans will have to fight to survive during the band’s live show, an unrelenting rush of delightfully uncontainable madness that has become Family Force 5’s bread and butter. “We encourage fans to dress up in costumes, whether it be a killer whale, a big chicken or a Skeletor outfit,“ urges Chap Stique. “Family Force 5 realizes that most people think rock n’ roll is about trying to be cool, but to us, there’s nothing cooler than when people let go and end up stealing the show by break dancing in helmets or body-slamming each other in Lucha Libre masks.”

Placing their lives and relationships at risk, the members have committed themselves to an arduous touring schedule, averaging 250 to 300 days on the road per year. The band is in the midst of a full-fledged summer run on the Vans Warped Tour, and will follow with a solo headlining trek, both equipped to supersede any prior concert experiences. In addition to members thrashing the stage wearing matching futuristic spacesuits, expect to see the Family Force 5000, a massive drum machine they personally invented that, at first glance, looks more like the next NASA launch computer than it does a musical instrument.

“It is the only fully-functional giant drum machine in the universe. It's a six-and-a-half-foot tall, 760-pound juggernaut of pads, knobs, and switches that inhales electricity and exhales lightning,” announces Soul Glow Activatur. “The Family Force 5000 started as a joke three years ago. Then we mentioned it to a friend, who happens to be a wizard in electronics, and he was able to bring our sci-fi idea to life. The fact that we have a huge, light-up, chunky machine on stage is pretty cool, and it adds to the robotic rock element of this season.”

Outside of their industrial explorations, members continue offering fans content in a variety of entertainment mediums as an additional means of appreciation for listeners’ unwavering support. Take, for instance, the steady stream of audio blogs, recently issued as the iTunes compilation Blingin’ Blogs Volume 1 (which finds the players offering a series of ghetto shout-outs and poking fun at pirates, to name a few). There’s also the ever-expanding online collection of The Really Real Show, a Spinal Tap-esque video library of stories from the road, spanning a broad comedic spectrum from bus brawls to single men's support groups.

Even with all the joyous insanity stemming from Family Force 5’s camp during the two years between projects (which also included first place in Yahoo’s “Who’s Next?,” several Energizer-sponsored extended slots on last summer’s Warped outing and countless reader’s choice awards), the eclectic quintet also persevered and endured through many adversities. Amidst tough financial times, the toil of the road, and label limbo, the band's grassroots fan base and determined work ethic fueled its highly storied course.

Armed with a do-it-yourself paradigm and a diversified entertainment enterprise, Family Force 5 is primed for intergalactic conquest. “'Dance or Die' is an unconventional arsenal of ultimate dance floor anthems,” declares Family Force 5000 player/keyboardist Nathan Currin (Nadaddy). “We're at war. Dancing is our weapon, and our party is ready to pull the trigger.”

The Promise Hero - Interview 2009




Hei Everybody, I’m proud to post this. A simple interview with new member of TDR records, THE PROMISE HERO, from Cleveland, Ohio, United States. In the wake of 2008's lauded self-titled CD/EP, “Wait For The Sun.”. Pop Punk band like a We The Kings, Boys Like Girls And Northstar.

Here They Are The Promise Hero

Line Up :


Daniel Weiss (Guitar)
Bobby Vaughn (Vocals)
Jeff DiLorenzo (Bass)
Frank Fini (Drums)





What’s the name of your band? What’s the origin of that name? Have you changed the band’s name before?

We call ourselves the Promise Hero. The name was donated from a close friend of the band while we were stumped on a name. we've never changed it because we couldn't think of anything else!

How long have you all known each other? How did you meet?

I've know Bobby since I was 15 and he was 16, 6 years ago. We met our drummer Frank a year after that when he was only 14 (14!). He was awesome at drums then, too. I finally met Jeff when he and I worked at Guitar center together 3 1/2 years ago.

When did you form your band? What inspired you to make music together?

Since I've been playing in bands with Bobby since I was 15, I'd say that's a good place to say we started, even though the Promise Hero didn't technically form until about 3 years after that. I thought Bobby was a really great singer and songwriter and that he was very charming, that inspired me to make music with him.

What can you tell me about your instruments? Are you subject to brand loyalty or will you play with whatever’s available? What made you choose the instruments you have now? Was it cost or was it a style/model/brand/color preference?

We've all saved up to buy professional instruments, and I've got certain preferences in the way I set up my guitar that is hard to compromise on. I think we all bought the instruments we have for their model and brand, but at that point you can pretty much pick any cool color or style you would prefer.

Where have you performed? What are your favorite and least favorite venues? Do you have any upcoming shows?

We've performed all over the US, and our favorite place is certainly our home base of the Grog Shop in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. We've always got upcoming shows!

Which songs do you perform most frequently? Do you ever play any covers? Do you have a set play list?


We play most of the songs off of our newest album. We never have played a cover before, but there are always ones I'd like to try. The trick is to not bastardize any 'sacred' or loved pop songs.

Who writes your songs? What are the main themes or topics for most of your songs? Do you think these topics will change over time?


Me and Bobby write all the songs, sometimes together or sometimes individually. The songs are normally about relationships, or introspection. I can't imagine they'll change for the most part.

Could you briefly describe the music-making process?

Bobby or myself will write a song, then we'll demo it at my house and send the mp3 file to the guys to learn. Then we'll get together during practice and collaborate on it.

What are your rehearsals generally like? Do you have a set time each week in which you practice or are rehearsals more spontaneous?

We usually practice before shows, but not a set time that we do consistently. We haven't even been practicing all that much lately. We've gotten to a point where we play together pretty well together.

How has your music evolved since you first began playing music together?

We used to write songs based on influences, whereas now our influence is just to write good songs, if that makes sense.

What has been your biggest challenge as a band? Have you been able to overcome that challenge? If so, how?


The biggest challenge is working hard to take the band in a direction that will bring us success. We've overcome certain aspects of it, but there are always other hurdles. It is hard, but rewarding work!

What’s your ultimate direction for your band? Are you seeking fame and fortune?

Fortune seems to be an unlikely goal in any endeavor anymore, and always shallow. I would like us to be able to successfully tour.

What advice do you have for people who want to form their own bands?

Do it because you have to do it, not because it's a cool thing to do.

How can fans-to-be gain access to your music? Do you have a website with sample songs or a demo CD?

Yes, thepromisehero.com which re-directs to myspace. Our albums are also available on iTunes.
Check out the video and check out the album. If you do love our band’s music or any band’s music, go out and pick up the record.

Biography 2009

Callisto - Providence


Words will easily fail when one attempts to come up with a comprehensive description of the sonic worlds created by the Turku-based sextet Callisto, as no language can adequately convey the feelings of pathos and elegance this music evokes. Their sound is deeply rooted in the somewhat somber atmosphere so characteristic of the northern landscape they inhabit, but instead of toying with suicidal themes they seek the beauty in melancholy, and manage to make it sound strangely uplifting.

Callisto began their musical exploration in 2001 inspired by such ’post-hardcore’ bands as Neurosis and Breach. In mere eight years they have progressed far past any genre boundaries, from the godly racket of their early days and their first album True Nature Unfolds to the dark cinematic sophistication of Noir and ultimately to their adventurous masterpiece Providence, set to be released in spring 2009.

Not willing to stagnate and release a similar sounding record after record after record, Callisto have taken a bold creative step away from their earlier, more instrumental material and composed a vocal record. The songs on Providence is built upon layers of melodies, but this is far from pop music, this is progressive music in its truest form. The band colours their aural approach with mellotrons, prog rock overtones, some jazzy bits and other stylish influences drawn from the seventies, and wrap everything up with vocals that range from screams of anguish to solemn melodies and beyond.

Those with a fondness of Neurosis and their ilk will still find a lot to digest in these majestic compositions, and also those into progressive heavyweights such as King Crimson and Opeth are in for a real treat. Providence was produced, engineered and mixed by Jonas Olsson and mastered by Svante Forsbäck. The artwork is contributed by Martin Kvamme of Unit Delta Plus (Fantomas, Satyricon, Turbonegro). The album will be available on CD by Fullsteam Records and on limited double vinyl by Svart Records.

Biography 2009


Burden of a Day will stake their reputation on their ability to perform. They’ve exhibited an energy and a presence seldom paralleled by even their more accomplished peers. Hailing from Sarasota, Florida - a retired people’s town with a music scene as cold and unforgiving as the winters most move there to escape - they’ve managed to accumulate a following that keeps even their smallest shows well populated.

Formed in January of 2004, they’ve fast developed a natural chemistry, allowing them to constantly evolve as musicians, aiming beyond the simple, straight-forward songwriting that plagues a lot of bands in their genre. Genre is a bit of a tricky subject... When asked, they’d probably tell you Post Hardcore/ Screamo or something along those lines. Although watching them play, one might be prone to question the ’Post’ part of that description. These boys are hard. Heartfelt and melodic, but not afraid to throw in a breakdown or two... which is more than occasionally. Influences include the likes of Thrice, The Bled, Life in Your Way, Saosin, New Found Glory, and many more. While staying true to the music they love and grew up with, Burden of a Day is ready and able to progress forward and pass the message on to the next generation.

Press Release :

ZAO - "Awake?" - Biography 2009



"If the melodic end of the kingdom has been taken by Killswitch Engage then the extreme end belongs to Zao. No question." - Metal Hammer Magazine

Awake? will sound immediately familiar to anyone who has followed Zao’s convoluted, controversial and altogether exciting career, with its signature all-out heaviness and beautifully simple memorability. Awake? stands easily beside the best and brightest of the Zao catalog, with the kind of production (courtesy of guitarist Scott Mellinger himself together with As I Lay Dying vocalist Tim Lambesis and Daniel Castleman) that Zao has always deserved.

Thunderous, epic, and full of passion, Zao (Greek for “alive”) is driven by vocals that exorcise singer Daniel Weyandt’s demons as if his life depended on the songs. His words reshape a personal history wrought with tragedy, suicide and death into beautiful musings that connected with their brutal honesty and naked self-observation. Mellinger, the band’s primary songwriter, adds melodic vocals as well.

Zao’s storied career was documented on the two-disc The Lesser Lights Of Heaven DVD and the luminaries of today’s heavy music scene are well aware of their debt to the band. Underoath and Unearth opened for Zao. Thrice, As I Lay Dying and Demon Hunter love Zao. Matt Heafy from Trivium joined the band onstage during a tour together.

Zao’s hometown of Greensburg, Pennsylvania isn’t known for many things besides being in close proximity to the mall where George A. Romero filmed Dawn Of The Dead. And that isolation has allowed the band to steer clear of trends.

Zao’s original incarnation formed in the mid-90s with evangelical zeal. When that version of the band fell apart, Zao as it would come to change the course of heavy music was born. Recently hailed by Alternative Press as “one of the most important albums of 1998, Where Blood and Fire Bring Rest took the conventions of hardcore and heavy metal and turned them upside down.

When Scott Mellinger joined Zao for the following year’s Liberate te ex Inferis, it began a song-writing partnership with Weyandt that persists to this day. Self-Titled was written and recorded by Dan, Scott and Jesse Smith (the only remaining holdover from the pre-Blood&Fire days) and featured a vast amount of experimentation with electronics, dark soundscapes, and melodic interludes. “Five Year Winter” continues to be one of Zao’s most popular songs in the live setting. The trio created Parade Of Chaos together as well, pushing the envelope even further.

Zao’s first album for Ferret Music, The Funeral of God, was recorded as a five-piece with producer Eric Rachel (Atreyu, Every Time I Die). The album became Zao’s biggest selling record and saw them receive their first airplay on MTV2 and Fuse and major press accolades.

After tours with bands like Bleeding Through and Dillinger Escape Plan, the band – now Dan, Scott, Marty Lunn (bass) and Jeff Gretz (drums) – recorded The Fear Is What Keeps Us Here with Steve Albini (Nirvana, Pixies, Neurosis) manning the reel-to-reel. Next they hit the road with In Flames, Trivium, Demon Hunter & Throwdown.

Dan, Scott, Marty and Jeff reconvened for Awake?, their first album of new material in three years. The record was produced and engineered almost entirely by Scott in Pennsylvania, with Daniel Castleman and As I Lay Dying vocalist Tim Lambesis producing drums in Southern California and handling the mixing. Longtime friend and Grammy nominated graphic designer Ryan Clark returned to handle the packaging, with some artwork from Dan’s close friend, Gabe Felice.

Zao’s latest album wants to step into your consciousness, unnerve you, make you think. Are you truly… Awake?
