A WILHELM SCREAM SET RELEASE DATE FOR NEW EP AND DEBUT TRACK ON REVOLVERMAG.COM TODAY

Today Paper + Plastick Records is excited to unveil the track listing, album artwork and set a release date of November 20th for A Wilhelm Scream’s highly anticipated self-titled EP. In the label’s typical fashion, this EP will be available on 12” vinyl with a die cut gatefold jacket as well as available for digital download through the label’s website www.paperandplastick.com. To coincide with this announcement the band has teamed up with Revolver Magazine to premiere the track “Bulletproof Tiger,” which can be heard here: http://tinyurl.com/aws-tiger.

SELF TITLED EP TRACKLISTING
1) Australias
2) Every Great Story Has a Shower Scene
3) Fun Time
4) Bulletproof Tiger
5) Skid Rock

The band, who have released three albums in four years on Nitro Records, took some time off from the constant touring/writing/recording cycle of the past to focus on this new EP. Fans need not worry though, as the band is currently out on the road across the US, and will be making an appearance at this year’s edition of The Fest. “The reason for this long break from touring is because we took a crack at recording ourselves,” guitarist/vocalist Trevor Reilly recently stated. “This five song EP is an eclectic mix of all the avenues the band have gone down since Mute Print–and we’ll be throwing them into the sets on these upcoming tours.”

THIS TIME NEXT YEAR ‘ROAD MAPS & HEART ATTACKS’ – CHOOSE YOUR OWN PRICE

As the music industry is adapting to new technologies, it seems as though everyone has forgotten why we’re all here: the music. Equal Vision Records & This Time Next Year have introduced a new system to give music to anyone who is willing to listen. Fans can “choose your own price” – from $0 to $1,000,000 it is it up to the fan to decide what to pay for the music. Fans also have options in what types of files to download – mp3, AAC, FLAC, or Apple Lossless – for those who are concerned about the quality, unlike other music download options. Additionally, the file previews aren’t limited to :30 like iTunes or Amazon. Listeners can hear the full album in a number of places, including the download website.

Fans still wanting to purchase a physical copy can do so through MerchNow, Amazon, FYE, or Best Buy.

To choose your own price & download: http://www.thistimenextyear.bandcamp.com

MOTION CITY SOUNDTRACK ‘MY DINOSAUR LIFE’

Motion City Soundtrack confirm My Dinosaur Life as the title of their new album and Columbia Records debut. The album was produced by Blink-182’s Mark Hoppus, who first teamed up with the boys in 2005 when he produced Commit This to Memory, and mixed by Andy Wallace (Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, Sonic Youth). To give fans their first taste of what’s to come, the band will be releasing “Disappear” – their first new studio song in more than two years – exclusively through iTunes on October 20th.

Motion City Soundtrack has not only built up a reputation for their catchy songs and idiosyncratic lyrics, but as a very visual band with their elaborate and smart videos. That said, they are already working on a video for “Disappear” to be released next month. For the most up-to-date information please visit the band’s web site: www.motioncitysoundtrack.com.
