    alltimelow

    One of the year’s biggest success stories, Maryland’s All Time Low (www.myspace.com/alltimelow) has a busy summer ahead as the band embarks on a summer headline tour with special guests Hit The Lights, Valencia and There For Tomorrow, before heading out for the second half of the Vans Warped Tour on July 23. This will be followed by a stint on mtvU’s Video Music Awards Tour with Katy Perry and Boys Like Girls (see dates below).

    This past spring, the four piece pop punk outfit made its network TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live, graced the cover of Alternative Press while co-headlining the AP Tour, and quickly became fan favorites as its “Dear Maria, Count Me In” video became a staple on MTV. With its Hopeless Records debut full-length So Wrong, It’s Right still firmly entrenched on the charts, All Time Low is eager to get back out on the road.

    The band’s live version of “Dear Maria, Count Me In” from mtvU’s Campus Invasion was recently the #1 most viewed video on mtvU.com, and the video for “Dear Maria, Count Me In” has been viewed online over 2 million times total via MTV.com, Youtube and MyspaceTV.

    This week, All Time Low is #55 on the Independent Label Albums chart, #56 on iTunes Top Alternative Albums chart, #47 on iTunes Top Alternative Songs chart (”Dear Maria”) and #57 on iTunes Top Alternative Music Videos chart (”Dear Maria.”) ATL is reuniting with director Travis Kopach (Panic At The Disco, Meg & Dia, Circa Survive) in NYC this week to shoot a new music video for their next single
    “Poppin’ Champagne”.

    Lima, Ohio pop punkers HIT THE LIGHTS will release their sophomore record Skip School, Start Fights July 8th on Triple Crown Records. Skip School, Start Fights is the follow up to 2006’s buzzworthy This Is A Stickup…Don’t Make It A Murder which put Hit The Lights on the map and saw them tour with New Found Glory, Paramore, Cute Is What We Aim For, Cartel and Boys Like Girls. The band will be on the road all summer, see below for confirmed dates with Set Your Goals, All Time Low, I Am The Avalanche and more.

    Skip School, Start Fights was produced by Rob Freeman (Hidden In Plain View) at Pilot Studios in New Jersey and mixed by Zach Odom and Kenneth Mount (Mayday Parade, All Time Low, Cartel).

    Hit The Lights went through a lineup shuffle before they recorded Skip School, Start Fights. When former lead singer Colin Ross left the band last summer to pursue the quiet life, HTL decided it was time to unleash their secret weapon…it was time for their guitar player, Nick Thompson, to step into the limelight as lead singer. So how do they sound now that Nick’s leading the charge? Better than ever. Obviously. Hit The Lights are now a four piece consisting of Nick Thompson (Vocals), Omar Zehery (Guitar), Nate Van Dame (Drums) and Dave Bermusk (Bass).

    novdoom

    Chicago’s NOVEMBERS DOOM, who are currently touring in Europe and will release their first
    live DVD “The Novella Vosselaar : Live in Belgium” on August 5th, 2008 (via THE END RECORDS), have issued an update.

    In a posting online, vocalist Paul Kuhr relates how good of an experience this year’s Graspop Metal Meeting was for the band:
    “What an amazing festival. I’ve never seen anything that operates so smoothly. This is easily a career highlight for us. We played to a solid crowd
    of thousands in early afternoon. Sensational all the way around, from the staff and crew, and the fans here are incredible.

    We might not come home! Our entire set was pro shot, and I’ve posted a song from the set on Youtube.

    You can see ‘Dark World Burden’ by using the following link.

    Enjoy, and we’ll give you a full update of the next 3 shows when we get home. Cheers!”

    In other news, THE END RECORDS have reissued two of NOVEMBERS DOOM’s earlier albums, both with new artwork, remastered and bonus tracks. The albums are: the 1995 debut “Amid its Hallowed Mirth” and 1999’s “Of Sculptured Ivy and Stone Flowers.”
