LOW OF THE LOW TO BRING 'LAND OF LINCOLN' BACK TO LIFE
Website: http://www.myspace.com/lowofthelow Music: http://www.myspace.com/lowofthelow Rob Medinger - Out of the Shadows Management 4509 W. 105th St. (Suite 100) Chicago, IL 60607 312-265-6892 management(at)outoftheshadowsllc.com March 27th, 2008 (Chicago, Illinois) - When the guys in Chicago based band Low of the Low discussed titles for their upcoming summer CD release, tentatively titled "Land of Lincoln", thoughts came to mind that reflected the band's views on the current political state of the country, and the effect it has had on all of the band members. "We fumbled around a bit with various different titles for this album, but "Land of Lincoln" seemed to keep coming up whenever we talked about it,'" frontman Mark Crowley recalls. "Things are just out of control these days, politically. I mean, with songs like "Reduced to Zero" and "Amount to Anything", highlighting the strangle hold the system has put on people, from rising taxes to the disillusioned war in Iraq, we wanted to name the record something to put a face on the faceless, give a voice to the voiceless and point out all of the corruption and greed in politics these days. So, we started right here at home with the good 'ol "Land of Lincoln." It was the only title that just seemed relevant on a local level for us, being from the 'great' state of Illinois," Crowley laughed. "We were a little leary about coming up with a name that invoked any reference to government or politics, but we just kind of threw it out there in a joking sort of way, as we all think of the current situation in politics, and it resonated with everyone in the band." The titles of the other tracks are just as telling. Crowley mentioned "Stone Survivor," "I Think I Like It," and "Twisted and Jaded" as other titles that made the cut. "We've recorded about 14 tracks," Crowley said. "Maybe eleven or twelve that we pick will go on the record once we are done mixing it." For their debut recording, Low of the Low --which also includes guitarists Pete Morelli and Paul Jagmanis, bassist Pat Sullivan and drummer Frank Schuck – enlisted former major label record producer John Sullivan, who now operates The Flood Zone (Studio) in Chicago, Illinois. "We learned a lot from Johnny and his experiences in Loudmouth (Hollywood Records). To be honest with you, we also learned how corrupt the music industry is, which that's why we decided to go this release alone. Man, I guess we really are "Twisted and Jaded,"" laughed Crowley. The band also plans on supporting the release with a fall tour, as well as a press campaign that contains a promo video that plays off of the current political landscape, just in time for the convening of the Democratic National Convention in Denver.
