Hailed as one of Canadas best-kept secrets - new EP produced with Scott McCloud (GvsB) in NYC anthemic post punk noise rock never more epic & never more necessary. _____________________________________________
The Details...
Artist: Full White Drag
Release: Everything Will Fall On One Night CD/EP
Label: Inner-Flight Records
Distributor: FontantaNorth (formerly MapleMusic) / Universal Music Canada
Windsor, ONs FULL WHITE DRAG hit the ground running with this 5-song set produced by Shane Stoneback (Perry Farrell, Heston Rifle, etc) & Scott McCloud (singer/guitarist for 90s noise rock masters Girls Against Boys) at Battery Studios in NYC, NY in the spring of 2004.
Hailed as one of Canadas best-kept secrets the new EP showcases the bands uncanny ability to create head-bobbing hooks and heart-pounding rhythms combined with Dave Mueller's pointed but always cool lyrics. With their hard-hitting post punk sound and relentless touring schedule over the past 4 years - FWD have been making believers from coast to coast to coast. Reviewers of the last studio album The Independence called it "a necessity for fans of this style of grinding, suave post-punk" (Ottawa Xpress) while other prophesized "if Full White Drag continue at their present pace they will become genre leaders"(DelusionsOfAdequacy - www.adequacy.net). While so many of their contemporaries are off chasing the newest dance-punk sounds, art-folk glitter or the garage rock of old, FWD has stayed the course and developed a sound much more epic and never more necessary. Everything Will Fall is a pre-cursor to the bands highly anticipated McCloud/Stoneback produced full-length to be released later in 2005.
_____________________________________________
Some Thoughts on FWD's last release 'The Independence' (2003):
.. a razor sharp war-cry,.. thanks to complex, shape shifting song structures, punchy production.. and loads of inspired guitar torture in the Sonic Youth tradition.. FWDs collective youth was spent mixing its Fugazi with the post-punkers like the Psychedelic Furs.. a confidently caustic sophomore album that hardly seems intimidated by the coolest city in America hype emanating from neighbouring DETROIT. Ben Rayner, Toronto Star
5 out of 5 stars! It's amazing what good sounds can emerge from the cultural wasteland of Windsor, ON. Dave Mueller's raspy, guttural vocals are toughened while slow, methodical tempos and R. Mathew Fields use of oscillators adds a contemporary psychedelic component. This disc is a necessity for fans of this style of grinding, suave post-punk. The Ottawa Xpress
..their hard-driving post-punk will hit all the right buttons with fans of Fugazi, Jawbox and Soulside although Guelph might be a better choice, due to their kinship with the Constantines. But what sets FWD apart from their peers is their ability to crank up jagged riffs to lock-groove intensity. Their songs become lumbering locomotives that threaten to careen off track, but never do. Though the ensuing chaos often throws guitarist Dave Mueller off stage and into the throng, the foursome keeps it tight and rock steady." - EYE Magazine, Toronto, ON, Canada
This is one dominating and intense album from a most underrated Canadian band. -CHART Magazine, Canada
