Dear promoters,

LA DISPUTE
La Dispute is five close friends from the Upper Midwest with a firm passion for the concept of music and art as a medium for making new friends. As a result, La Dispute makes (or strives to make) music that is both artistically, technically, and emotionally engaging in hopes of establishing legitimate connections with any and all interested people, while encouraging dialogue between those people and themselves about things in life that truly matter and that truly last. La Dispute also carries a firm passion for the relevance of a live show, both for the bands involved and for the people in attendance, and will go to the grave believing that the environment created when strangers come together despite their differences to celebrate one important thing is invaluable and should not under any circumstances be taken for granted. They are currently finishing their new album to be released later in 2011. Come say hello.

TOUCHE AMORE
Touché Amoré are a thought provoking, passionate hardcore/punk band from Los Angeles, California.
From the first strikes of their angular yet melodic chords, it's apparent that Touché Amoré have awoken something long since forgotten in the hardcore/punk genre. Within each song they build an awe inspiring musical tension while impassioned vocalist Jeremy Bolm's shouts resonate, ripe with intellectual introspection. This collective outpouring of traditional hardcore anger and emotional hardcore openness ultimately coalesces into something beautiful, vulnerable, and refreshingly real.
Shortly after their formation in late 2007, Touché Amoré released their demo 7"EP on the No Sleep label. After touring the West Coast in support of that release, they recorded their debut album "...To the Beat of a Dead Horse" in early 2009. The album was co-released by the 6131 and Collect (Geoff from Thursday's vinyl only imprint) record labels, and was praised by kids and press worldwide as one of the best releases of the year. Soon after, they hit the road with a wide variety of bands including Converge, Coalesce, Thursday, Envy, Bane, and more. On the heels of these travels, Touché Amoré even managed to release a number of EPs, including splits with friends La Dispute and Make Do And Mend. Their new LP/CD will be out in april via Deathwish Records.

DEATH IS NOT GLAMOROUS
Death Is Not Glamorous is a 5 piece band out of the Oslo, Norway. They started in the winter of '04 to play music that inspired them to make the best out of their lives so its no surprise that the lyrics have reflected this! Featuring members of Damage Control, DinG dropped one of the best demos in recent memory - 5 tracks of melodic hardcore punk which sounds like a hybrid of Lifetime, early Saves The Day, late Turning Point and Shelter. The demo was recently re-mastered and released in the US on State Of Mind.
They wasted no time in releasing the 'Undercurrents' record on 7" and CD. The 7" has recently reached its 2nd press due to the bands non-stop touring! In early 2007 splits were released with Another Year and with good friends Down & Outs on D&G. The much loved demo was also pressed onto 7" and released by the band themselves. After doing a full USA tour, several Europe tours they releasing their LP/CD debut “soft clicks” on D&G Records/Blacktop Records. With a new release under their belt, they are ready to hit the European roads this summer.
