The Millions
What if The Marvelous 3 met Kiss in a dark alley and decided to rock up some Cheap Trick tunes until they sounded like Twisted Sister?

Description
It's hard to believe that The Millions have been together for only two years. In that short period of time, these Chicago scene veterans have developed an explosive live show and a healthy collection of great tunes. Their love of loud guitars (See Lit, Kiss, Motley Crue, Guns 'n' Roses and AC/DC) and big hooks (See Good Charlotte, Marvelous 3, Weezer, Cheap Trick and Queen) inspired them to create their own mix of the heavy and catchy.
The popularity of The Millions has only increased with the release of their debut album, "Million Dollar Rock". Recorded locally, the disc features the writing talents of former guitarists for The Krinkles and Big Hello respectively, Dan "The Fox" Edwards and Johnny Million. The album also features the playing of power drummer, Larry "Crash" Brown (PurrBox, Justin Roberts) and bassist/vocalist Christopher Grey (Swizzlesticks)
Early reviews for "Million Dollar Rock" have been glowing. Bruce Brodeen, President of Not Lame Recordings, calls "Million Dollar Rock", "...a raging slab of rock. "Kings of A&R (www.kingsofar.com) describe it as "...Ultra-catchy, guitar-rock/power-pop/retro fusion..." Webzine Glorious Noise (www.gloriousnoise.com) says, "...It's all about super tight songwriting, catchy hooks, booming rhythm and crunchy guitars. And lots of flashy solos. It's pure rock and roll and it's good..." The songs on the album range from glistening hard pop in the form of "Heather", to all out 'balls to the wall' hard rock via the title cut, "Million Dollar Rock". Fans of guitar rock will immediately latch onto the dueling Million/Edwards licks throughout the disc.
As part of their approach for the release of "Million Dollar Rock", the band has been keeping a high profile. In the spring of 2003, The Millions were tapped to film scenes for a ComEd television commercial. They signed a publishing deal with Samovar Groovathon music. And, in an effort to expand their audience globally, The Millions signed a licensing deal with Egging Records to have "Million Dollar Rock" released (with bonus tracks) in Japan.
