07.08.06 SIGN MY BAND
Takeover Records third Sign My Band contest is already in full effect, but this time around a new twist has been added to the competition: Theres no guarantee one band will be offered a record deal from the label. I want to use the contest more as platform to showcase ten amazing unsigned bands and help jump-start their careers, said Takeover Records owner Ben Harper. I may or may not sign one of them.
After seeing previous Sign My Band contest finalists picked up by labels like Virgin (The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus), Nitro (Hit The Switch), SideCho (Stars of Track and Field) and Outlook (Daphne Loves Derby), it became apparent that the contest had some clout. Takeover will be recommending all finalists in the contest to other labels were affiliated with, Harper said. Though its uncertain if a record deal will be offered up, one song from each of the ten finalists chosen will be featured on an up-and-coming Takeover Records compilation CD, and the winner of the contest will get to tour the U.S. with bands on the labels roster in 2007.
Demo submissions for the Sign My Band contest are being accepted all summer at the Takeover Records tent on any stop of the Vans Warped Tour, and the ten finalists will be selected by Takeover staffers. The finalists can expect to be promoted on PureVolume.com and receive prizes from Ambiguous Clothing, The Wedge Studios and Wonka Candy, as well as have one of their songs on the compilation to be released by Takeover. Oh, and a full recommendation by Takeover Records is also part of the deal.

07.08.06 MUCH THE SAME POSTS NEW SONG!
Getting ready for the release of their sophomore album, Survive, on August 29th, Much The Same have posted a new song, “Skeletons” on their myspace page for fans to hear.
“Skeletons is a song about admitting your past mistakes and being able to move on and away from them for the sake of a better future for yourself,” says bandleader Gunner McGrath.
Alongside their Nitro Records labelmates A Wilhelm Scream, No Trigger and Crime In Stereo, Much The Same are doing everything they can to bring back substance over style to the underground. Produced by Cameron Webb, Survive is a return to the fast melodic punk sound of the 90’s without sounding nostalgic or derivative. Each of the band members shared songwriting responsibility making Survive a reflection of the band as a whole.
The band’s debut album, Quitters Never Win, was released on A-F records in 2003 and the band has played with the likes of Bad Religion, Rise Against, Thrice, Strike Anywhere, Anti-Flag, and A Wilhelm Scream.
