Good Times Had By All In P-Town

Cars On Mars traveled down to Provincetown yesterday for the “ProvinceTown Rocks!” music festival. The guys started the night by melting faces over at Good Times pub.  Right from the start of the show, patrons of the bar immediately started rockin’ out and shakin’ booties. Even the Narragansett Beer promotions crew instantly became fans of Cars On Mars.  By the time Cars On Mars finished their set with the hit song “Roll On Two”, everyone was a fan. The F-Nice crew couldn’t keep up with demands for Cars On Mars EPs and t-shirts.

A half an hour later Cars On Mars went down the street and brought the house down at the Governor Bradford. Once again the crowd was blown away by the hard rhythms and soulful lyrics of Cars On Mars. Photographers immediatley rushed to stage to get a shot of our boys. With songs like “Big Sky”, “Modern Ground”, and “Ghost”, Cars On Mars brought tthe roof down. and sealed their spot as top act of the night.

Pray for Polanski, Cars on Mars, Vivian Darkbloom, and Kickdrum a huge hit at Great Scott

Last night at Great Scott in Allston MA was the best Monday concert I have ever been at. The place was packed, the bands were hot, and the sound was amazing.

The Event: Pray for Polanski’s release party for their new hit album The Death of Dennis Patrick Robbins. The Bands: Cars on Mars, Vivian Darkbloom, Kickdrum, and of course Pray for Polanski. The Air: Explosive.

Riding the wave of the future, Pray has released their album primarily as download cards that let their fans purchase music at the show and then download a Mp3 version of the album from F Nice Records’ website. This new type of album release is a big part of both PFP and F Nice’s concern about the environment and their visions for the technological growth of the music industry. There are also CDs of The Death of Dennis Patrick Robbins available for those who need them, and each CD comes with full access to download the album in Mp3 format as well.

Pray for Polanski Finishes New Album

Last night I witnessed The Death of Dennis Patrick Robbins.

I did not of course see Dennis die, for that happened years ago, a casualty of social suicide. What I am referring to above is the private listening of Pray for Polanski’s spectacular new album that I sat for last night.

Maybe sat is not the right word because one cannot really remain still while being flooded with the body-bobbing tempos and heart-throbbing guitar, bass, and drums that explode out of this masterpiece. The music on The Death of Dennis Patrick Robbins flows smoothly from beginning to end in a way that made me smile all the way down to my toes. It’s an album to which one can jump up and dance or sink deep into their seat and enjoy thoroughly either way.

Lyrically Pray for Polanski’s new tracks are mind blowing. The Death of Dennis Patrick Robbins is filled with entrancing stories and wrenching emotion, all of which is beautifully song. Aviv shows off his fantastic vocal range across the whole album, and Anne Warnock’s singing could break even a eunuch’s heart.

The Death of Dennis Patrick Robbins will be officially released on this coming Monday, July 13th, with a party at Great Scott that night starting at 9pm. The album will be available there in CD and downloads card formats Bands and fans alike will all be there to celebrate with lots of FREE GOODIES to go around.

See ya at Great Scott on Monday…..
