Thorp Records announces MY REVENGE!, Strength Through Nonviolence, in stores June 24

I'm gonna reiterate the Spencer's words because they couldn't have been better said.

(Oh, and click here to download "Sing Now While You Have A Song".)



That's right, America's hearthrobs and American Idols My Revenge are releasing their final album June 24th. It went to press last week. 10 songs, 4 brand new songs recorded in Dec/Jan. Look for a glossy ad in Seventeen, Cosmo, Field and Stream, and Better Homes and Gardens. We care about fashion, getting paid, elitism, popularity, girls, sales, marketing and most importantly our image. We have nothing to say and we don't focus on the music, unless it has "hooks" "melodies" and is "catchy." Our press kit comes with scratch 'n sniff stickers of Eric Smith fixing his truck.

These are the kind of songs that would make a thunder and lightning storm run away. Or would kill all the birds in your neighborhood. This is the kind of record that sounds like a Lunar excursion module waving to Denzel Washington above a walrus orphanage.
It is devoid of commercial value. It's not even worth stealing, but it's the best hardcore album of 2008.

The record release show is planned for the Annex In Burlington Vermont sometime in early June. Come pile on, sing along and circle pit one last time to the off-the-wall magnificently dysfunctional spectacle that is and has always been, My Revenge.

Out June 24th 2008. My Revenge "Strength Through Nonviolence."
10 songs.
Buy this album, read the lyrics, and listen to the music.

is that a new Thorp release?

And as a quick side note, I'd like to thank Spencer and the rest of the band for all of the effort they've put into My Revenge - one of (if not THE) longest running bands on the label.

After four years of working together, while I'm disappointed they're breaking up, I'm proud that Thorp is releasing their last record.

All the best to you guys.
