CHECK OUT OUR BLOG FOR THE L.I. SPOTLIGHT ARTICLE!GOODTIMES REVIEW: SEPTEMBER 2007
We’ve said it before: Idle Vice is going to make it. This outstanding five-song EP is further proof that it’s just a matter of time before this quartet will be on the road again, or signed to a major label. This is a tremendous disc is one of the best we’ve been privy to in months. Charisma, style, attitude, and rock & roll ethic, Idle Vide has it all going on.Good heavens, is this music original. From the great title to the outstanding recording job – yeah, it’s VuDu Studios again, like that’s any sort of a surprise; Mike Watts is a friggin’ genius – there’s a little something here for any rock fan. Unlike a lot of bands, Idle Vice isn’t a carbon copy of something else that’s going on at the moment. They’re not emo, they’re not hard rock, they’re not alt – they’re Idle Vice, and they’re forging their own identity as a tighter-than-tight melodic modern rock band.The Huntington-based band – Matty Lupinacci (vocals), Branden Gallagher (bass), Jayson Howard (drums), and Justin Fentrich (guitar) – has already toured the east coast and are planning a three-month national tour to move this EP. It shouldn’t be hard; with stick-in-your-memory cuts such as “Cast Away,†“You’re Game,†and “The Verdict,†this is a band that features lyrics as deep as their music is catchy. And they appear to be proud products of the region: The inner liner notes feature a photo of a “Greetings From Long Island†postcard. Hey, cats, we’re proud of Idle Vice, too. This disc is easily one of the best local products of 2007.For more information on this superb band, log on to idlevicerock.com or myspace.com/idlevice.

Sounds Like: What would happen if an old school 70's rock band visisted the future Met with a pop-punk band from Long Island, rocked out in the garage and recorded it.
