Norma Jean announces winter tour

Norma Jean announces winter tour

The Explosions 2009 tour, Norma Jean‘s first headlining tour since fall of last year, is in the works!

solidstate5The Explosions 2009 tour, Norma Jean‘s first headlining tour since fall of last year, is in the works! In support of their most recent record, Anti Mother [which was released last month on Solid State Records], the tour will start late November and is said to have a rather impressive line-up of Horse The Band, The Chariot and Arsonists Get All The Girls all of which were hand selected by Norma Jean. Front man Cory Brandan states:

“We’ve always loved heavy music with no loyalty to any genre, style, approach or ‘fashion’ and this tour is just a taste of that non-allegiance. Arsonists are an insane band from Santa Cruz. The Chariot are our good friends from our home state of Georgia. I’m really looking to hearing the songs from their new record live. We may even join each other on stage once in a while. Horse The Band is such a different sounding band. You can tell they really love what they do and have fun doing it. That’s something we love about any band.”

Also, in select cities which have yet to be announced, Norma Jean will perform their breakthrough album “Bless The Martyr” and “Kiss the Child” in its entirety. Check out the Dying Scene Shows page for all the dates cities and venues.

Frank Turner to release “The First Three Years”

Come tomorrow, Paper + Plastik Records will be introducing Frank Turner‘s double LP “The First Three Years” to the world.

frank-turnerCome tomorrow, Paper + Plastik Records will be introducing Frank Turner‘s double LP “The First Three Years” to the world. This collection features demos, covers, live tracks and b-sides recorded by Frank after his London-based hardcore band, Million Dead, broke up in early 2005. Shortly after the break up, Frank began his solo career and recorded the 23 tracks which were only featured on split releases or UK compilations from 2005 to 2008, thus, “The First Three Years”. Paper + Plastik Records owner, Vinnie Fiorello, comments:

“Frank Turner is the future of British music, and I don’t say that lightly. He channels Billy Bragg like he has Billy’s blood running through his own veins. The lyrics, the melodies, and the way he connects with the crowd makes him a contender to be the ONLY British import that matters. I’m honored to be able to release his early songs all packaged up in a fantastic looking double LP. Long Live Frank Turner!”

Frank delivers his own interpretations of songs from Black Flag, Bad Brains, The Lemonheads, Postal Service and Abba so if you happen to be one of many who will rush out tomorrow to buy your own copy, you’re in for a “folkin” treat!

And if live performances are more your thing, you can catch Frank Turner live as he is on tour right now supporting The Gaslight Anthem. Check his Dying Scene Shows page for dates!
