Mar 30th, 2007 The Dear & Departed To Release "Something Quite Peculiar" on May 22; Band Confirmed To Play Hurley Stage On Warped
Orange County transplants The Dear & Departed will release their Science Records debut Something Quite Peculiar on May 22.

After relocating from Australia and New Zealand to life behind the Orange Curtain, singer Dan Under, guitarist Simon O’Gorman and drummer Joel Bourne slept on couches and in vans while seeing “sure thing" record deals fall apart before teaming up with guitarist Darren Parkinson and bassist David Williams to form The Dear & Departed.

Mixing a dark aesthetic and an esoteric approach with punk and new wave influences, the band has more in common with The Cure, The Church and Sisters Of Mercy than other bands hailing from the 714 area code.

Having toured with heavyweights like AFI and Avenged Sevenfold the band teamed up with Nine Inch Nails drummer Chris Vrenna, whose production resume includes U2, Smashing Pumpkins and Killing Joke, to produce their debut album. AFI's Jade Puget also came onboard to help with additional production.

AFI fans may be familiar with Dan Under’s hypnotic vocals as he sang on several tracks of the band's latest, Decemberundground. With an international fan base in their corner,The Dear & Departed are set to rock the Hurley Stage on the Vans Warped Tour this summer.

Blasting into the world of heartfelt, powerful rock and roll Orange County, CA's The Confession is a band with a war to win. In a time where the term "heavy music" has become so ambiguous, the themes of rock and roll have faded to genre titles like “metal-core” and “post-hardcore”, these musicians drive like a demonic horde to construct a new standard for fans of true metal and hard rock.

The Confession strives to be the beacon, the lighthouse in a sea of darkness that is heavy music today. To clear up once and for all what heavy music should be about, THE MUSIC. They are coming and they are looking for your help to create the most chaotic and stunning metal show filled with participation and a true sense of belonging to heavy music. A confession is a declaration of ones beliefs, and this is the band’s declaration to all metal fans out there...

With tours supporting Avenged Sevenfold and Eighteen Visions behind them, The Confession is now set to hit the pavement with Bullet For My Valentine and Escape The Fate (see dates below 3/30-5/10).

The Confession's full length debut Requiem, produced by M. Shadows in Avenged Sevenfold, will be available on Science Records June 19, 2007.
