EGYPT
CENTRAL’S
SELF-TITLED
DEBUT SLATED
FOR JANUARY
2008
RELEASE!!!
Memphis,
Tennessee’s
Egypt
Central will
be releasing
their
self-titled
debut in
January 2008
on Fat Lady
Records in
conjunction
with Warner
Music
Group’s
Independent
Label Group
(ILG). Egypt
Central,
featuring
John T.
Falls
(vocals),
Joey Chicago
(bass),
Heath
Hindman
(guitar),
Blake
Allison
(drums), and
Jeff James
(guitar),
originally
recorded the
album in
2006, which
was mixed by
Josh Abraham
(Velvet
Revolver,
Korn, Linkin
Park).
Once the
band signed
with Fat
Lady
Records/ILG
in 2007,
they went
back into
the studio
to retool
the album.
With the
help of
mixer Paul
David Hagar
and mastered
by legendary
George
Marino, the
insanely
catchy,
hard-driven
disc was
re-mixed,
re-mastered,
and
re-sequenced,
taking it to
another
level!
The first
single, “You
Make Me
Sick”
debuted at
#38 this
week on the
BDS Active
Rock chart
behind early
supporters
like WIIL/Chicago,
WIYY/Baltimore,
WRIF/Detroit,
KXFX/Santa
Rosa (Top 10
Phones),
KZRQ/Springfield,
Sirius and
XM.
Egypt
Central’s
track, “Over
and Under,”
was featured
in the major
motion
picture,
“The
Condemned.”
That
exposure led
to
appearances
on both
Ozzfest and
the Family
Values Tour.
Foster care,
rehabs,
homelessness,
signed to a
major label
and dropped
- the band's
self titled
debut CD
tells the
story of
their lives
- an ever
changing
collage of
lost love,
frustration,
broken
dreams, but
with the
determination
to rise and
succeed.
“Life is
what you
make of it,”
says Falls.
“We're not
vengeful
people, and
we would
never let
any negative
energy ruin
how great it
feels to
have an
album out.
After all
the work we
put in, it's
the greatest
feeling ever
and I don't
think it
would be so
gratifying
had we not
been through
everything
we've
experienced.”
Egypt
Central will
be touring
in Early
2008 to
support the
January
release of
their
self-titled
debut, with
more huge
dates to
come!
