Release Notes:
As the old clichΘ goes, there are two sides to every story, and the music of
Lancaster PAÆs MOVIES WITH HEROES is no exception.
For MOVIES, five years of indie-touring, self-released records, and
uncompromising live shows culminate with the release of their national debut,
Nothing Here is Perfect. The album, an overpowering blend of the ferocious and
the fragile, manages to deliver on two fronts, simultaneously rocking both
melodically and methodically.
On one hand, you have the cerebral lyrics, the delicately deliberate
arrangements, and the intricately structured melodies. ItÆs music from the
brain, plotted-out with the uncanny precision.
On the other hand, you have the sound of something visceral and fierce. This is
the sound of five grown men going for broke. The sound of five lifetimes worth
of passion being distilled into a single powerful presentation. ItÆs music from
the heart, brimming over with sincerity and ardor.
Produced and recorded by the members of MOVIES WITH HEROES and mixed by Ed Rose
(THE GET UP KIDS, REGGIE AND THE FULL EFFECT), Nothing Here Is Perfect is a
kaleidoscopic romp through the annals of arena rock. From the riotous march of
ôWake Upö to the black-and-blue groove of ôNothingö to the anthemic pop of
ôWildflower,ö the band shows in the full spectrum of colors how years of
struggle, sacrifice and angst can blossom into a sound full of purpose and
drive.
Since solidifying in 2000, the band has shared stages across the US with the
likes of COHEED AND CAMBRIA, DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL, CURSIVE, THE PROMISE RING,
RAINER MARIA, and more. Now in partnership with CI Records, MOVIES WITH HEROES
is poised to make an impact on a national front as one of the most excitingly
honest and emotive bands to emerge from the independent music scene.
Like a working class COLDPLAY, or the FOO FIGHTERS with a doctorate, MOVIES WITH
HEROES walks a fine line between the two sides of their story, finding something
beautiful in the delicate, albeit tense, balance between them.
Nothing Here is Perfect hits stores March 28th, 2006.
