AMERICA UNDERWATER FLOODS THE WORLD!

AMERICA UNDERWATER FLOODS THE WORLD!

LoveHateHero’s brand new record America Underwater is in stores NOW! While writing songs for the record at Dreamlab Productions the band retooled their sound. The result was a record that focuses more on their well-developed vocal melodies and cleanly polished hooks. Nearly reinventing themselves as a whole, the group dropped a lot of the edginess from their songs, using it sparingly instead of as a crutch to rest on. For this release, “maturing as songwriters” wasn’t just a cliché.

When LoveHateHero was finished recording, they exited Dreamlab Productions with ten anthemic, pop-laced rock songs, powered by Pierrick Berube’s signature vocals and Thrasher’s relentless guitar attack. With Scot Gee (drums) and Paris Bosserman (bass) solidifying the rhythm section, the band steamrolls forward with more passion and fervor than ever before.

LoveHateHero now looks to blast headfirst to the next level with the release of America Underwater immediately followed by endless touring to support the album while spreading their sound to new listeners.

The band will embark on a Midwest to West Coast tour starting on October 23rd supporting Eyes Set To Kill, with Dreaming Of Eden in tow. Local bands will open each show on the tour! Tour dates and venue information can be found by clicking HERE

Leading up to today’s release date, the band made their record available across as many platforms, on as many websites as possible. Armed with the forward thinking that if they put it every where no one could escape it, LoveHateHero placed full album streams (along with premiering their new video for the title track) on MySpace, Pure Volume, Reverb Nation, iLike, Facebook and even Ferret Music’s iPhone App that allowed listeners to stream America Underwater even if they were away from their home computers!

The band also included websites such as Buzznet, Last.fm and Friends or Enemies as other places to stream just the record (no video) and then brought in video sharing websites YouTube, Vimeo and Yahoo Videos.

As if that wasn’t enough America Underwater is featured on an AOL Listening Party along side Paramore, Alice In Chains, Hatebreed and more! Check it out by clicking HERE

Today America Underwater is available in stores world wide as well as available online at these outlets:

MIKE VALLELY: BATTLE COMMANDER!

Mike Vallely iconic pro skater and vocalist of Revolution Mother has been named the Battle Commander! Each month Skating filmmaker extraordinaire The Berrics film a skate pro for an original video that they dub The Battle Commander. Though Vallely (Aka Mike V) has been professional for over twenty years this is his first truly focused traditional skate video segment since the late eighties. Commenting on the video which went live today Vallely said “For the past fifteen years I’ve been an ambassador and promoter for my sport. While many of my peers were working on producing skate video after video or posing for pictures in a magazine I’ve been representing live and in person doing demonstrations and appearances. Though people have documented me skating I haven’t focused on a traditional skate video until now. I have spent the hours on the maneuvers, blood has been spilt, bruises have been taken and it’s a good representation of my work.”

The video is cut to the song Runaway Train by Revolution Mother which is Vallely’s other passion. Serving as vocalist to the band Vallely and his bandmates have recently released their second full-length Rollin’ With Tha Mutha on July 7th. The music is chock full of galloping dirty rock with punk ferocity and hardcore power. Exclaim! Magazine called the band “the perfect collection of miscreants to fill those great shoes vacated by hardcore punks Discharge” and “It’s one of few releases from a newbie band that merits instant credibility, as it’s performed by the kind of dudes you really want on your side of any potential battle.”

The band will appear as the musical act on nationally broadcast Fuel TV’s The Daily Habit on Monday, July 27th. In addition audiences throughout the country recently got a dose of the band when seeing the major motion picture The Hangover. The song Ride The Sky II is featured in a scene which also has Vallely making an appearance.
