United Nations Look Similar To The Bank Robbers From Point Break

Matt — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 15:09:11 +0000

Well, maybe their similarities end with just the press photos, you can be the judge of that. UNITED NATIONS are a hard/grindcore side project. There’s been speculation as to who is actually in this band for months.

The only actual member in the band we know of is Thursday frontman Geoff Rickly. Rickly has become the unofficial spokesperson/leader of the band since the rest of them are under contract with different labels and therefore haven’t revealed their true identities, let alone given interviews.

But after a quick browse of some message boards, the same few recurring bands/names come up – Daryl Palumbo (Head Automatica, Glassjaw), members from Converge, as well as members from The #12 Looks Like You and Made Out Of Babies all get mentions. Though we may never know the true identity of this band, we have one thing going for us…some new music! Their new album is streaming on the band’s Myspace page and on September 9th, we can all have it in our hands thanks to Eyeball Records.

MP3: Adam Turla | “The Moon Is Up”

Matt — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 20:32:45 +0000

ADAM TURLA lead singer/drinker of MURDER BY DEATH has released a new track online. The song, called “The Moon Is Up” was posted on a myspace page Turla made for the song, which is described as a B-Side.

Is seems Turla posted the track strictly to share, because reading the page gives off no notification there’s a solo album in the works. No art, no friends and a post that friend requests and comments will not be approved.

MP3: Murder By Death | “‘52 Ford” | Live On WSOU

Matt — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 20:50:03 +0000

A few days ago, MURDER BY DEATH was in town to headline the Bowery Ballroom. Earlier the same day, I put the band’s lead singer Adam Turla in my car and headed down the road to WSOU for an on-air interview with the radio station and it’s central Jersey audience.

About halfway through the interview, Adam busted out a steel guitar and performed an acousic version of the song “‘52 Ford”, from the band’s latest album Red Of Tooth And Claw. I snapped pictures and the folks at the station were nice enough to record Adam’s performance.
