Flyleaf to release Special Edition CD/DVD on 10/30!

Flyleaf A&M/Octone recording group Flyleaf will give their fans something brand new to talk about on October 30th, when they release a special edition two-disc version of their self-titled RIAA gold debut album FLYLEAF. In its 79th week on the Billboard 200 album chart, the original configuration remains inside the Top 100, with total sales of more than 750,000 and average sales of 8-9,000 per week – testament to the band’s explosive performances this summer on their second consecutive Family Values Tour.

The new CD + DVD package builds on the success of “All Around Me,” now in its sixth month out, and breaking into the Top 5 at Modern Rock radio. It’s the third single from the album, following “I’m So Sick” and “Fully Alive” – and the video clips for all three will be included on the bonus DVD. (The video for “All Around Me” was shot by visionary director Paul Fedor, whose credits include Evanescence, Marilyn Manson, and 30 Seconds to Mars. The videos for “I’m So Sick” and “Fully Alive” were directed by the Brothers Strause, who’ve worked with A Perfect Circle, Linkin Park, Godsmack, Staind, and others.)

In addition, special exclusive acoustic versions of “All Around Me,” “I’m So Sick,” and “Fully Alive,” plus “Cassie” and “Red Sam,” will be included on both the CD and DVD configurations. The new package will also contain a full-color Flyleaf locker poster, and access to free “All Around Me” ringtone and wallpaper.

Flyleaf harvested a multitude of new fans on the 31-city 2007 Family Values Tour, sharing the stage with Korn, Evanescence, Atreyu, Hellyeah, Trivium, Neurosonic, Droid, and others. The tour followed up Flyleaf’s own two-month headlining Justice & Mercy Tour, from April through June, featuring Kill Hannah, Sick Puppies, and Resident Hero, and sponsored by the Spyglass/Universal movie Evan Almighty, which opened in June. June also marked the opening of 20th Century Fox’s Live Free Or Die Hard, featuring “I’m So Sick.”

Texas-bred Flyleaf – propelled by the arsenic-laced lyrics and blow-torch delivery of vocalist/lyricist Lacey Mosley, dual shredmaster guitarists Sameer Bhattacharya and Jared Hartmann, and the thundering rhythm section of bassist Pat Seals and drummer James Culpepper – have been have been winning over crowds ever since the lineup came together in 2002. Word of their intense, live performances spread across Texas, and earned them a SXSW showcase and ultimately a record deal with Octone Records. The New York-based label is home to Maroon 5, and is known for its long-haul artist development and marketing strategies on behalf of its artists, grass roots promotion, and sustained creative and commercial success.

The FLYLEAF album (released September 2005) was produced by Howard Benson, known for his work with Papa Roach, My Chemical Romance, POD and The All-American Rejects. It was eventually chosen as part of MTV’s coveted “Discover & Download” program. Since last year, the band has made major network television appearances on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live, and NBC’s Last Call with Carson Daly. Flyleaf has been touring virtually non-stop since the release of the album.

The band’s fan club has more than 20,000 “Mob Members” signed up, and their website on MySpace has more than 442,000 friends. The site currently logs over 12,000 plays per day and boasts over 22 million plays to date. “Mob Member” perks include limited edition merch­andise, exclusive online content, and the chance to meet Flyleaf in person at shows.
