BIOGRAPHY
RED STAR ROMANCEs FIRST ALBUM "GOODNIGHT, UNCLE SAM" AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER INTERNATIONALLY MIDNIGHT (12AM) OCTOBER 1st FROM THIS PAGE; AVAILABLE TUES., NOVEMBER 21st, 2006 IN HMV STORES ACROSS CANADA.
RELEASED BY BAD SAMARITAN RECORDS
Born from a world gone mad, RED STAR ROMANCE emerges as one of the punk community's most intelligent and respected voices; steeped in a veil of brilliant acoustical whimsy, this gentle Leviathan rips songs bloody and beating from the heart and mind. With scathing fragility and remarkable sensitivity, Matt Coverly's haunting vocal presence and brilliant musicianship scorches an indelible mark on the soul.
It is no surprise that RED STAR ROMANCE has shared the stage with such talented figures as Equal Vision's Dallas Green (Alexisonfire), Epitaph's Jon K. Samson (The Weakerthans), and Fat Wreck's Tom Gabel (Against Me!).
Beautiful, seductive, controversial, and infectious, RED STAR ROMANCE will make you hate the world again.

Ninjalicious, Howard Zinn, A. Jones, Seth Macfarlene, Emily Murphy, Jason Vale, Rosa Luxembourg, Peyo, the ineffable T.S. Eliot, Lisa Simpson (AKA. Ubergrrl), Joseph Farah, Zora Neale Hurston, Noam Chomsky, Jimmy H., Hartland N.B., Exploding Dog, Polio Vaccine, John Stockwell, W.D.
