BASEMENT RECORDS (Newsletter 10-05-09)

We have plenty of new stuff going on including, new signings, new releases and tour info.

FICTION REFORM
The newest addition to Basement Records is Fiction Reform. The band comprising of members of AERODRONE, THIS IS MY EMPIRE, THE LAST GANG and BULLET TREATMENT play uptempo, catchy, hard rockin' tunes in the vein of BAD RELIGION, RISE AGAINST, THE DISTILLERS & FOO FIGHTERS. Led by female vocalist Brenna Red their upcoming full length release "Revelation In The Palms Of The Weak" should see a release in early 2010. Their first single for the song "Small Silhouette" will begin getting aired next week with a preview as part of a feature on ESPN's LA Sports Center segments. They will also be filming a video for the song in the coming weeks, as well as finishing up the final vocal tracks for the record. We will post the release date and cover art (which by the way Richard Minino of Horse Bites Designs is doing) in the coming weeks so watch for it.

BOBOT ADRENALINE
We're looking at releasing their new record by the end of the year, just need to put the finishing touches on some mixes, finish up some art and we're good. Bobot's new record "Dumb Bomb" will have some of their best material to date. Pepper and the guys' have busted their asses and written one hell of a catchy record.

BULLET TREATMENT
BT will be releasing "Designated vol. 2" very shortly, so far tracks from Jordan/VULTURES UNITED, Matt/THE BRONX, Liam/CANCER BATS & Ryan/OUTBREAK all have turned in their tracks. There has been talks of a couple others that are just about done so hopefully this will be done sooner rather then later. And also watch for an upcoming digital release including all of the previous vinyl material as well as some unreleased demos and cover songs from the likes of BAD BRAINS, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, ADOLECENTS, and the DESCENDENTS.
