Multi-platinum alternative rock heavyweights Incubus recently signed with , and will release 4-song EP entitled (Side A) on May 12. After nearly two years off the grid conceptualizing and recording new material, Incubus, under the management of Johnny Wright at Wright Entertainment Group, has its sights set on a “non-traditional” in 2015. Founding member told Billboard.com that although the didn’t have “any plans of making this record” the new music is “pretty indicative of where we are now. This is what the band sounds like in 2015.” The EP’s digital pre-order is available on iTunes, and the CD and vinyl versions of the EP can be pre-ordered now HERE. Twenty years since the release of their indie debut album in 1995, . Incubus went on to release six studio (the last three produced by Brendan O’Brien), achieving RIAA Gold, Platinum and multi-Platinum success; as well as five live albums. Four of their songs have hit #1 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart, including “Drive” (2000, also Top 10 Pop), “Megalomaniac” (2003), “” (2006), and “Love Hurts” (2008).

Since Deftones’ inception, the multi-Platinum, Grammy Award®-winning alternative rock band from Sacramento, Cali. have quietly been pursuing two paths, delivering songs defined by churning, double- fisted aggression while also testing the boundaries of music by incorporating elements of psychedelia and . The Times wrote of Deftones, “ thrives on conflict and chaos, and no band has found more beauty and soaring aggression within those ingredients than Deftones.” The band's seventh studio album , released in November 2012, spawned two Top Five hits at Rock radio ("Tempest" and ""). Koi No Yokan met with critical acclaim with Revolver naming it their "Album of the Year" and SPIN selecting it as one of its Top 50 Albums of 2012. The New York Post also hailed it as "one of the best rock albums of the year." Deftones have released seven albums to date and have sold over 10 million albums worldwide. Vocalist/guitarist , guitarist , keyboardist/samplist Frank Delgado, drummer and bassist , are currently working on their eighth studio album to be released in 2015.

Globally revered and highly influential dance-punk duo Death From Above 1979 are touring in support The Physical World released by Last Gang Records/Warner Bros. Records this past September.

Produced by D. Sardy (, LCD Soundsystem, Wolfmother, Oasis), The Physical World comes a full ten years after the release of the band’s universally acclaimed debut album, You’re A Woman, I’m A Machine, which made Jesse F. Keeler (bass, synths, backing vocals) and (vocals and drums), an underground / overground sensation. DFA 1979 broke up in 2006 while the first album and subsequent remix album continued to sell inexplicably. They decided to reunite in 2011 and began to perform live picking up where they left off without missing a beat. Their rabid cult has only continued to amass just as inexplicably. “Returning a decade later, they’re still crushing violent, angular riffs, but they’re also writing catchier songs. A throwback to a throwback that better the second time around.” – Magazine
