PR reports: Bloodshot Records To Release Danbert
Nobacon’s The Library Book of the World & Dollar Store’s Money Music
- In Stores August 14!
From the anarchist underground of the UK
and the blue collar streets of Chicago come new albums from Danbert Nobacon
and Dollar Store. While the genesis of their music began thousands of miles
apart, they share empathetic views of the downtrodden and a healthy distrust
for the establishment. Nobacon is backed up old friends Jon Langford and
Alan Doughty in the Pine Valley Cosmonauts (both play in the Waco Brothers,
Doughty is bassist in Dollar Store as well) for a rousing set in which
Nobacon describes his role as “that of a “psychic medium plugged into the
mainline of human history, hearing voices from present ghouls and future
ghosts as well.” Dollar Store recorded Money Music at Engine Studios in
Chicago in late 2005, producing it themselves. The result is a rock rave
up that sings the sorrows of the working man.

the world don’t have to brag or posture. They just do the quiet work of
honest musicians, traversing the globe and converting every last one of
us, one show at a time. As unassuming and truthful as their music, Snow
Patrol has quietly become a genuine global act this past year. Eyes Open,
recently certified platinum in the United States (over one million sold),
and has now sold over 4 million copies worldwide.
Supported this summer by Hot Hot Heat,
Gary Lightbody and company will continue on their ascent, featuring two
nights at the famed Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, a performance at the
legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, a stop in Chicago at this
year’s Lollapalooza festival and more.[see full story for dates]-

"Covero" Neves, from the death metal band ENDRAH.
Alex comments: "Since our original vocalist
left the band in the second half of 2006 we made some auditions for the
position without having a satisfactory result, so, due to the request of
the other members I accepted this experience, which is something totally
new for me, but our objective is still to find a vocalist."
OF THE ARCHAENGEL is formed by the members
of the defunct band Lethal Curse, which was formed in 1992. Samples of
the band's work is available in mp3 on MySpace [see full story link]-
