New York – May 6, 2010 – After scoring their first ever hit on the Active Rock charts last year with “Guilty,” Since October have returned with a brand new album and lead single which picks up where they left off.
The band’s sophomore release Life, Scars, Apologies will be released on Tooth & Nail/EMI Records on June 8th. The first single “The Way You Move” has already reignited the band’s fan base by becoming the #1 most added track at Active Rock radio this week.
The foursome made up of Ben Graham (Lead Vocals), Luke Graham (Guitar / Backing Vocals), Josh Johnson (Bass) and Audie Grantham (Drums) are excited to get their latest single on the air.
"This is a song about a relationship gone right, and my wife of 8 years is the inspiration,” commented Ben. “It seems like most 'relationship songs' are about what went wrong. Since a 'happy marriage' is rare these days I figured I should take advantage of my situation. Before we met, I was at a time in my life where I had decided to be 'single for awhile', you know, focus on my life, my job, my faith, my whatever. However, let's just say after I caught a glimpse of her, that philosophy went flying out the window! There was something about her that restored in me the idea of 'true love’. We both took a chance and after 8 years I still enjoy watching her walk through a room!"
Through driving rhythms, memorable choruses, moving melodies and rock solid bottom end, the Floridian bred band have connected with listeners in clubs across America, on the radio, and via the Internet. The band’s authentic, pure voice delivered a significant following through the release of their debut album This Is My Heart in 2008, which has built steadily in to imminent street date of Life, Scars, Apologies. Graham shares, “Anything in our lyrics is usually something I've dealt with or maybe someone in the band is dealing with. People are attracted to that level of honesty, especially in the clubs. When people see us on stage, they might assume that we've got everything together and our lives are perfect. We like to say, 'You know, we might be on stage but we're not any higher than you guys are and we're struggling through this just as much as you guys are.' We're just trying to tell our stories."
Life, Scars, Apologies -- the band's upcoming album -- will undoubtedly kick down even more doors for Since October, spreading their huge riffs and big harmonies further across the globe. The band is poised to do great things, but by no means have they forgotten how and why they started. "Our faith is a huge part of our lives -- what we do, how we live," explains lead vocalist Ben Graham.
Since October was built from the ground up, kicking and clawing in the hardscrabble Southern club circuit as a self-made rock n' roll band and selling 5,000 copies of their self-financed CD through word of mouth. They've toured with bands like Trapt, 10 Years, Saving Abel and Saliva and shared stages with Shinedown, Flyleaf, Papa Roach, Chevelle and Judas Priest, to name a few. Most importantly for the group they've been able to connect to a wider audience with their music and messages.
"A lot of the songs are really upbeat and fast tempo on the first album compared to this new one," Ben points out. "We really drop the tempo down and just chug a little bit on this album."
The band will head to Nashville to shoot a video for “The Way You Move” this month. After that, they expect to do what they do best – hit the road and tour. More details to be announced shortly.
