BEAT UNION: VAN AND TRAILER STOLEN IN CANADA

Official Press Release:

British rockers BEAT UNION's current single is titled "Can't Stop The Radio." The band also can't stop touring despite a curveball thrown their way this past weekend in Canada. While en route to launch their North American tour, the band was stranded in Edmonton after their van and trailer were stolen there. Both were recovered--albeit in bad shape--after a police chase early yesterday; click to see full story in the Edmonton Sun: HERE.

After subsequently being forced to cancel a handful of local dates, BEAT UNION are pleased to announce they'll start back up with Bedouin Soundclash this Friday, September 5 in Sudbury, Ontario. Also on tap: BEAT UNION will perform a one-off New York show with The Loved Ones September 14 at the Knitting Factory before joining Flogging Molly on their U.S. trek September 15 in Sayreville at the Starland Ballroom. Next up, the four-piece will team-up with Horrorpops for an October U.S. run before heading back overseas for a UK tour with Less Than Jake. After wrapping up a summer-long run on the Vans Warped Tour, BEAT UNION are continuing to receive acclaim for their debut album DISCONNECTED (Science). Outburn magazine hailed the album for the way it "combines youthful energy with an attentiveness to songcraft that is inspiring" (July, 2008). Elsewhere, writer George Paul noted in the I.E. Weekly that "...Disconnected, produced by Goldfinger's John Feldmann, bears traces of late '70s-era Jam, Clash, Elvis Costello, Joe Jackson, Squeeze and The Police. The sharp album is one of the best debuts of '08 thus far" (6/18/08). Likewise, Jim Ruland claimed in the San Diego City Beat, "Beat Union may be the best thing out of Birmingham since Black Sabbath, coming off like The Clash while still earning comparisons to Elvis Costello" (August 12, 2008).

In video news, BEAT UNION are now streaming the video for their new single "Can't Stop the Radio." To view the clip directed by Nate Weaver, click here: www.youtube.com/beatunion.

50,000 ESCAPE THE FATE FANS UNLOCK NEW SONG

Unexpected, gratifying and momentarily frustrating to some, the promotion that asked fans to gather 50,000 people on Escape the Fate's Buzznet page had such an overwhelming response in its final minutes, it managed to crash the big servers of the social networking giant that was hosting the promotion. While it may have only been for 15 minutes, that was a long 15 minutes to fans who had been parked on the page for more than a day, waiting to hear a new song from their favorite band.

The band released this statement via their Buzznet Journal:

"After 30 long hours we are so stoked you guys accomplished 50,000 people on here at ONE TIME!! And since you guys waited so long, as promised, below is the stream and FREE DOWNLOAD for the surprise song titled 'The Flood' from our new record “This War Is Ours”, in stores 10.21.08 on Epitaph. We fucking love every single one of you. Escape The Fate fans are and always will be the coolest kids on the block.

This War Is OURSSSS..... Enjoy

- Escape The Fate"

UPDATES

Firstly, I know I keep promising all those interviews and new live photos I did over the last two months. The truth is, it is extremely difficult for me (and only me) to edit roughly 3,000 pictures and 13 interviews. Things will appear soon enough, once I find the time to sit down long enough to type, edit and post them. My apologies to those who are really looking forward to them. It's just hard for one person to maintain everything. Thanks!

We'll also be attending the Glamour Kills pre show bash in Poughkeepsie as well as the Bamboozle Festival, which we will be running around obtaining as much coverage as we are able too.

    OUR DEEPEST CONDOLENCES

    Hawthorne Heights have posted a message regarding the passing of guitarist, Casey Calvert. Our deepest prayers and hearts go out to Casey, his family, friends and everybody involved.

    "Today is probably the worst day ever. Its with our deepest regrets that we have to write this. Casey Calvert passed away in his sleep last night. We found out this afternoon before sound-check. We've spent the entire day trying to come to grips with this and figure out as much as possible. At this time we're not sure what exactly happened. Just last night he was joking around with everyone before he went to bed. We can say with absolute certainty that he was not doing anything illegal. Please, out of respect to Casey and his family, don't contribute or succumb to any gossip you may hear. We don't want his memory to be tainted in the least. Casey was our best friend. He was quirky and awesome and there will truly be no others like him! His loss is unexplainable. As soon as we know more we will let you know. Sincerely, Hawthorne Heights Eron, JT, Micah and Matt"

    THREE MEMBERS LEAVE THE DEAR HUNTER

    Luke, Sam, and Josh have left The Dear Hunter. They released this statement:

    "The last year has been an incredible experience with tremendous accomplishment for us as a band, but it has not been without conflict. We all have made many attempts to work through the personal issues that have led the three of us to the decision to leave The Dear Hunter. We cannot now go back in time and fix things before its too late. We are all proud of our contributions to The Dear Hunter, whether it was collaboration on Act II, or performing the music and discovering that there are great fans who share our enthusiasm for the vision and the music. After all, our decision has nothing to do with the music, touring, or performing, as we count ourselves among the band's biggest fans. We simply reached a crossroads in our personal relationships within The Dear Hunter. So, we three want to say thank you to fans of The Dear Hunter because your enthusiasm and support helped sustain us.

    Love,
    Luke Dent, Sam Dent, and Josh Rheault.

    DAVE DOUGLAS MOVES ON FROM RELIENT K

    After seven years of touring and recording with Relient K, Dave Douglas (Drummer) has decided to leave Relient K. His official statement is below.

    "I know that there have been some rumors and speculation about my future in Relient K. I suppose I should clear that up. The time has, in fact, come for me to leave the band. This has been a very difficult decision, but I know that this is the right one. Relient K has been a huge part of my life and I'm sure that it is going to take a long time to get used to not being a part of the band any more. I've had a lot of good times, met a lot of great people, and been able to go a lot of places. it's been a blessing and a pleasure to work with Matt, Matt, John, and Jon. Also, I want to thank everyone else who has been involved with the band, especially those who have been on the road with us. Our fans are amazing and I want to thank all of you for your support and enthusiasm.

    I am moving on to new music projects, and I hope that I will still have all of your support. Come the first of the year I will be devoting most of my time to Gypsy Parade. Feel free to look us up and say hi. Until then I will playing with Relient K, so I've got a few more shows left in me. I suppose that this is my "farewell tour." hopefully I, and the rest of Relient K, will see you at one of them. Thanks to all of you.

    -Dave Douglas"
